All About Retaining Walls- What Are They and Why Do You Need One?

Retaining walls are an essential part of building a hillside pool. Theyprovide structural support to the surrounding soil and help prevent erosion or landslides that could damage your property or compromise the safety of your pool.

What Are Retaining Walls?

Retaining walls can be made from various materials, including concrete, stone, wood, and brick. The choice of material will depend on factors such as budget, aesthetics, and environmental considerations.

To ensure proper installation and durability, retaining walls should always be built by experienced professionals who have knowledge of local zoning regulations and engineering requirements. 

Poorly constructed retaining walls may lead to costly repairs down the line or even pose a danger to people nearby.

 When planning for a hillside pool with retaining walls, it’s important to consider not just their function but also their form. Retaining walls can be beautiful features in themselves when designed creatively with curves or incorporating natural elements like rocks or plants.
