Retaining Walls FAQs

Do retaining walls need drainage?

Yes — drainage is what keeps a retaining wall standing. Every AlaTex wall is built with gravel backfill and drainage so water pressure cannot push it out of place. This is especially important in the Birmingham metro and West Alabama clay soils.

Can you repair an existing retaining wall?

We assess and repair leaning, cracked, or failing retaining walls, and rebuild them with proper drainage and reinforcement when needed.
