Why is my retaining wall leaning forward?
This is caused by a massive buildup of hydrostatic pressure. If a wall is built without an engineered drainage system in the backfill zone, trapped water weight will eventually push it over.
Why do Harveysburg properties need engineered retaining walls?
Heavy masonry retaining walls engineered with clear stone backfill and perforated drain tiles to relieve water weight and survive Ohio freeze-thaw cycles.
Harveysburg has Caesar Creek on one side and rolling hills on the other.
In Harveysburg, we regularly work in Harveysburg Village, Woodsong and Caesar Creek Ridge.

COMMON SYMPTOMS WE FIX IN HARVEYSBURG
Why is dirt washing out from under my wall?
Severe base erosion undermines the structural footing of heavy masonry. This rapid washout is a clear indicator that the internal geotextile filtration fabric has failed.
What happens if a retaining wall fails?
A collapsing wall poses a massive structural, financial, and legal liability. We terrace unstable land permanently using structural geogrids and deep aggregate bases to prevent mudslides.
"Last winter a car went thru a stop sign and hit part of our retaining wall. I reached out to Shawn's Landscape & Design, and I am very grateful for the work he and his team did. Scheduled quickly, polite, and professional."
