Concrete Walls & Retaining Walls in Greater Cincinnati
Concrete Wall Installation and Replacement for Residential and Commercial Properties
Custom Concrete Walls and Retaining Walls
Concrete walls provide strength, stability and long-term support for residential and commercial properties. They can be used to retain soil, manage changes in elevation, define outdoor areas and support a variety of construction and site-improvement projects.
All New Concrete installs and replaces concrete walls and retaining walls throughout Greater Cincinnati. Our team evaluates the site, intended use, soil conditions, drainage and surrounding structures before developing an approach for the project.
Concrete Retaining Wall Installation and Replacement
Concrete Retaining Wall Installation
A retaining wall holds soil in place where elevations change across a property. It can help create usable space, support a slope and separate areas with different grades. Concrete is frequently selected for retaining walls because it provides the strength needed for demanding residential and commercial applications.
All New Concrete builds concrete retaining walls throughout Greater Cincinnati. Before construction begins, we evaluate the wall’s proposed location, height, purpose, surrounding grade and drainage conditions. These factors help determine the appropriate design and preparation requirements.
Concrete retaining walls may be used to:
- Support sloped areas
- Hold soil at different elevations
- Create more usable yard space
- Protect areas near driveways and parking lots
- Define patios and outdoor living areas
- Separate landscaped sections
- Support commercial site improvements
Depending on the size, location and purpose of the wall, structural plans, engineering or local permits may be required. We can review the proposed work and coordinate construction according to the project’s established requirements.
Retaining Wall Replacement
An aging or damaged retaining wall may begin to lean, crack, separate or move away from the area it was built to support. Drainage problems and soil pressure can place additional stress on the wall and contribute to continued movement.
When a retaining wall has experienced significant deterioration or structural movement, replacement may provide a better long-term solution than patching the visible damage. All New Concrete can remove the existing wall, prepare the site and construct a new concrete retaining wall based on the needs of the property.
Signs that a retaining wall may need attention include:
- Visible leaning or bowing
- Large or expanding cracks
- Separation between wall sections
- Soil washing out around the wall
- Water collecting behind or near the wall
- Crumbling or deteriorating concrete
- Movement in nearby surfaces
Our team can evaluate the wall and surrounding property to determine whether repair, partial replacement or complete replacement is the most appropriate option.
Concrete Wall Construction and Site Preparation
Poured Concrete Walls
Poured concrete walls can be built for a variety of residential, commercial and site-development applications. Concrete creates a continuous wall that can be formed to meet the project’s dimensions and structural requirements.
Our concrete wall services can include:
- Residential site walls
- Commercial concrete walls
- Landscape retaining walls
- Walls alongside driveways and parking areas
- Walls surrounding patios and outdoor spaces
- Structural concrete walls
- Replacement of deteriorated concrete walls
Every wall serves a different purpose. Our team considers the expected loads, surrounding grade, access and connections with nearby concrete or structures before construction begins.
Concrete Wall Repair
Minor damage may sometimes be addressed without replacing the entire wall. Repair options depend on the type of wall, the extent of the damage and whether the wall has experienced structural movement.
We can inspect the concrete and explain whether patchwork, section replacement or complete reconstruction is the most practical solution.
Excavation and Site Preparation
Concrete wall construction often requires excavation, grading and preparation beyond the visible wall itself. All New Concrete has the equipment and experience to prepare the site and manage the concrete work as one coordinated project.
Our wall construction process may include:
- Site evaluation and project planning
- Excavation around the proposed wall
- Removal of soil and existing materials
- Base and footer preparation
- Concrete forming and reinforcement
- Concrete placement and finishing
- Backfilling and grading
- Cleanup and removal of debris
Drainage Around Retaining Walls
Water collecting behind a retaining wall can increase pressure and contribute to movement or damage. Drainage should therefore be considered when planning retaining wall construction.
We evaluate the surrounding slope and water flow as part of the project. Drainage provisions will depend on the wall’s design, location and site conditions.
