Structure, drainage and a finished yard.
Shaw’s Construction built a 110-foot, double-sided retaining wall to correct a sloped residential yard. The wall incorporates steel reinforcement and defines the raised ground beside the existing home.
A French drain runs the full length of the wall for drainage. Ground preparation and fresh St. Augustine sod completed the project, with ten photos documenting the work from posts and bracing to the finished yard.
