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.

Our Quality Service

We assess structure and drainage, recommend durable materials, and repair with methods suited to rainy Westside conditions. Work emphasizes safety, improved curb appeal, and low‑maintenance results that last through wet seasons.

Benefits:

  • Better drainage to prevent future failure
  • Safer slopes and reduced erosion risk
  • Cleaner look with minimal upkeep

What’s Included

  • Full inspection and written repair plan
  • Crack repair, re‑grading, and reinforcement
  • Improved drainage (weep pipes, gravel backfill)
  • Site clean‑up and restoration

Optional upgrades:

  • Mulch + landscape fabric
  • Organic weed control (no synthetic herbicides)
  • Haul‑away vs. green bin / compost disposal

Before & After / Expectations

After repair, water should route away from the wall and new plantings or mulch will slow surface runoff. Expect some settling in the first season; remove invasive ivy at the roots and keep irrigation away from the wall face to avoid renewed pressure.

FAQs

  • How long do repairs take? Small repairs: 1 day; larger sections: a few days.
  • Will work damage lawn or plants? We protect planting areas and restore disturbed turf or beds.
  • Do you use herbicides? No — we use organic and mechanical methods only.
  • Is drainage improved permanently? Proper drainage greatly reduces recurrence, but check outlets yearly.
