Burien retaining wall repair Renton
Homeowner’s Issue
Retaining walls in Burien face a mix of heavy winter rain, clay‑influenced soils, and shaded slopes that hold moisture. Problems you’ll see are bulging, leaning, horizontal cracks, and backups from clogged drainage. On sloped lots or near Lake Burien, poor outlet paths accelerate erosion and push on wall faces, while nearby trees and ivy add root pressure and regrowth challenges. Landlords and homeowners want a durable fix that reduces callbacks, keeps tenants safe, and lowers long‑term maintenance. We focus on sustainable, non‑chemical solutions that address the root causes: drainage, soil pressure, and water routing.
