Retaining Walls in
McCandless
McCandless Township is one of the established North Hills' largest communities, with a deep stock of mid-century and later homes on rolling terrain. The retaining walls in McCandless are aging across the board, and we do significant volume here in replacements and modern rebuilds of walls that are reaching the end of their service life.
What we build for McCandless homeowners
Segmental Block Walls
Versa-Lok and Allan Block walls — the modern standard for residential properties.
Boulder Walls
Natural stone walls that complement the local landscape character.
Poured Concrete
Engineered concrete walls when you need maximum height or strength.
Engineered Tall Walls
Walls over 4 ft requiring stamped engineering — we handle permits and PE coordination.
Why McCandless needs walls done right
McCandless's housing stock spans roughly 60 years, which means the walls span 60 years of changing best practices. The earliest field-stone walls were built without drainage planning at all; the 1970s and 1980s walls were often timber with minimal reinforcement; later walls used early segmental block systems before geogrid was standard. We see all of these and we rebuild to current standards regardless of what was there before.
