Retaining Block Walls Increase Your Property Value
Oklahoma retaining walls not only make your landscape more functional, but they can drastically increase the curb appeal and the value of your property. Retaining and decorative walls from Land and Stone Construction are designed utilizing the highest quality composite materials. With these materials, our designs bring together your landscape and shape it into a unique work of art. The slope of the yard for many properties in the Oklahoma City region can frequently turn away potential buyers since they know that a valuable piece of the land is considered unusable. With retaining walls, you can alter these underutilized sloped areas to create multiple flat surfaces that can be used for various purposes.
Retaining Block Walls are Low-Maintenance and Incredibly Durable
After Land and Stone Construction completes your Oklahoma retention wall installation, you will find that there is very little maintenance required. Properly installed and manufactured block walls can handle thousands of pounds of earth and water for decades. This means that, at the very most, you could rinse off or power wash the wall at your convenience. They are designed to be rugged and durable enough to withstand volatile weather conditions and hard impact to protect your landscape and property.
Land and Stone’s Oklahoma retention walls are manufactured to avoid common issues such as:
- Cracked surfaces and poor materials
- Landscape flooding by providing maximizing drainage
- Incorrect soil pressure from different horizontal loads
- Extreme evaporation from consistent sun exposure
Protection from Water and Soil Erosion
Oklahoma City retaining walls are a fantastic tool for preventing soil erosion, but for them to perform at their best, appropriate drainage is essential. Your retaining walls should be expertly constructed to prevent damage from water and erosion rather than worsen the issues of pooling in smaller areas. This is ensured by strong retention and appropriate drainage techniques. It is especially important when the snow defrosts, and a rapid release of water mass occurs. Expert design and installation by Land and Stone takes these factors into account to ensure that you have long lasting protection from flooding and soil erosion.
Retaining Walls Resist Freezing Temperatures During the Winter
Snow and ice moisture seep through natural stone or concrete elements of outdoor constructions when the wintertime temperature changes. The moisture expands as it freezes and thaws again, leading to material flaws and fissures. With our high-quality materials and precision installation services, your Oklahoma block wall can help prevent these issues as they offer low porosity preventing too much moisture from building up and causing landscape deterioration. In addition, snow and soil moisture will substantially increase the weight of your wall’s load. Thankfully our expert technicians are armed with the proper knowledge of engineering techniques to prevent your installation from collapsing. With this in mind, you can also feel confident knowing that even if winter winds whip, your Oklahoma retaining wall will remain intact.
