Engineering Slope Solutions
We evaluate your slope grade and soil type before recommending wall height and material. Terracing splits a slope into 2-4 flat "rooms," each usable for planting, lawn, or a patio.
Materials and Service Area
We use concrete block, natural stone, or timber for terracing projects in Boise, Eagle, Star, Middleton, Nampa, Caldwell, Meridian, Kuna. Drainage behind the wall is always included to prevent pressure buildup during spring runoff.
