The town of Martinez is characterized by its topographical hills, olden day neighborhoods, and landscape views towards local places such as Alhambra Valley, Pine Street, Arnold Drive and trails around the Briones Regional Park. There are so many houses constructed on sloping areas so the retaining walls are important in preventing soil erosion, controlling soil movement as well as establishing stable outdoor areas. It does not matter whether you are close to downtown Martinez, or in the residential areas on the hills, towards the Reliez Valley, a retaining wall has to be constructed that accommodates the soil and changes in elevation.
Our team offers retaining walls constructions and repair services that suit the peculiarities of the terrain of Martinez. We know the difficulties involved with hill ground pressure, soil made of clay and changing seasonal levels of moisture. All the walls, which we construct or mend are designed to be stable, durable and have a finish that will harmonize well with your property.

To construct retaining walls which will be actively employed to prevent soil erosion we will follow the intelligent engineering and the experience. The following is what our erosion-prevention plan consists of:
Through the consideration of erosion management, we are guaranteed that your retaining wall will stay sturdy and efficient in the many years to come.
The first step is to be able to detect the problem. It is important to be informed about the symptoms of retaining wall failures to avoid significant structural challenges and save your property against the expensive damage.
When your wall is beginning to sink or bulge or move, it is an indication that the force exerted on the soil is too much against the structure and it is high time you attended to the situation.
Fractures, broken parts and interstitial intervals of blocks show a weakening support and are proof of internal failure.
Ponding of water, blockages in weep holes, or soil washing out at the back of the wall are some of the common indicators of drainage problems that may result in more severe structural damages.
These signs are good to identify at the beginning of the problem in order to avoid more serious troubles, and our crew is ready to fix problems before they become an expensive failure.

The retaining walls desired by Martinez homeowners must not just hold the soil, but must make their outdoor areas look and be more useful. You also have the benefit of having walls that are not only very supportive but also match your architecture and landscape. Your style is more natural stone, modern block or more custom we build a wall that fits your vision.
Form is no less important than form. All walls that we create consider the angle of slope, soil density, and drainage to provide the long-term safety and durability. Our solutions are used to make level yards, raised planting areas, pathways, patios and so forth, all on the base of a wall that has the stability to stand the test of time.
The retaining walls of Martinez need to be able to withstand pressure of the hills, heavy rain during winter and shifting soil, which is a challenge that needs the expertise and accuracy of the construction. Installation might result in inclination or blockage of drainage, or in the abrupt collapse of the wall and that is why planning and engineering of the same are required to be carried out professionally.
We even get time to learn about the specific needs of your property, along with discussing your options as well as prescribing a solution to match your terrain. The first inspection up to the last walkthrough, all we care about is safety, structural integrity and reliable outcomes. A professionally built retaining wall is not only capable of supporting your landscape, but it also helps in protecting your home as well as elevating the worth of your property.
We were very happy with the results of our inspection with Ryan! He explained the settling in homes and what things we should look for, and was very professional, friendly, and efficient. Thanks!
Had a great experience working with Kyndell from Golden Bay Foundation Builders. I recently purchased the home and was looking for help with earthquake retrofitting options. He inspected my foundation carefully and determined that past bolting was likely adequate. He had suggestions about monitoring the foundation. He was very thoughtful and detailed in his approach, and worked to determine what was best for the home. In this case, that meant no need for additional work now. But if I need any additional assistance in the future, will be calling him again.
