Retaining Walls FAQ — Waynesville
How tall can a retaining wall be without engineering?
In most Western North Carolina jurisdictions, walls over four feet in exposed height require engineered plans and a building permit. We work with local engineers and handle the permitting process for you.
What causes retaining walls to fail in the mountains?
Water pressure behind the wall is the primary cause of failure in our area. Our heavy rainfall saturates clay soils and builds hydrostatic pressure. Proper drainage, including perforated pipe and gravel backfill, is non-negotiable in Blue Ridge construction.
