Best Cantilever Retaining Wall Services in Palm Beach County

Free Quote

All retaining walls have the same basic purpose: retain soil and create slopes or new levels from the ground. However, depending on the one, you design and build, you can retain more or less soil. The aesthetical result is also different, and you can bet for more or less durability. The price is, of course, variable as well. Cantilever retaining walls are often chosen for medium size heights or specific projects in excavation. They are quite durable and resistant and very cost-efficient. However, they may not work for all projects.

We have built them for over two decades at Palm Beach Home Pros. We can provide you with some guidance and advice on when it is a good idea to install them on your property.

Will they fulfill all your needs? Or do you need to work around another retaining wall due to the soil and final purpose?

Reviewing the pros and cons of cantilever retaining walls is the best way to determine what’s best for you:

Advantages:
- They offer an unobstructed open excavation as they don’t take up as much space as others.
- You don’t have to install tiebacks below adjacent properties.
- The construction procedure is simple and easy to handle.
- They cost less due to the simplicity of the system and construction.
- They can be quite durable, even for long-term or short-term projects.

Disadvantages:
- They are limited to the excavation depth.
- You cannot use them next to adjacent buildings—at least. We don’t recommend it.
- Earth resistance is variable and the wall depends greatly on it for stability.

The beauty of them is how you can benefit from the weight of the soil. So it has more stability than others regardless of how the earth’s resistance can vary. The point is that you’re supposed to study and inspect the space.

After the proper inspection, you will determine if the wall is suitable.

When to Install a Cantilever Retaining Wall

In our experience, they are better for short-term projects or your needs to retain soil for short periods.

Although you can install them for the same aesthetical purpose, they often perform better during the excavations because they won’t be permanently there.

Don’t get us wrong. They are good for the entire scope of retaining wall covers. But this is as long as retaining about 5 meters or 6 meters of soil is enough for you. In that case, the wall will take up little space, and you can fit the style with some additions and features.
