Our service expertise and product installations are available for both domestic and industrial applications and since we have been providing retaining solutions for many years, clients can have confidence in our team’s installations.

Our retaining wall structures are designed to retain soil at different levels and typically steep vertical slopes where soil otherwise does not stay fixed in place without some form of retention or support. Most often, our structures are installed in terrains where the landscape needs to be shaped for specific purposes such as roadways, farming, pavilions, and much more.

If a retaining wall is not designed and installed in the correct manner, it will not be able to resist the materials pushing against it and it will collapse. The soil type, weight of the soil, the best material for backfilling purposes and appropriate drainage processes all need to be considered when designing a retaining structure. This is why it is important to count on experienced engineers for the design and installation of retaining walls, no matter how small the project is.

There are many different types of retaining walls that are suited for different terrains and requirements. Our team is skilled in the design and installation of all kinds of retaining solutions to meet our clients’ diverse needs and we only make use of the best retaining products on the market to ensure a lasting result. Some of the quality products we use, include Decorwall® block, Löffelstein® blocks, Terraforce ® blocks and Grinaker Terrace Blok ®.

Our retaining structures at Decorton are designed and manufactured to offer support to soil masses and to retain soil on distinct levels behind the wall. These structures are specifically designed and installed to restrain soil at an angle that it would not normally retain without some form of artificial support.

We ensure that the wall structure is sufficiently strong to resist the lateral pressure of the surrounding soil and withstand the desired change in movement when the angle of repose is exceeded. With specially designed retaining blocks, we ensure that surrounding soil is bound together by installing a retaining wall between the varying elevations.

Retaining systems are most prevalent in terrains where undesirable slopes are present, where the landscape needs to be shaped for building or gardening purposes, and when making way for roads, railways, pools, etc. Our team has completed a diverse range of retaining projects over the years, from tennis courts and pavilions to landscaping projects, and more. Therefore, no matter how major or minor your retaining requirements, you can rely on us to get it done!
