Funnygirl on Dec 30, 2014He is correct. You will need support that extends below the freezing line because eventually the wall will give away and lose its support.Helpful Reply

360 Sod (Donna Dixson) on Jan 02, 2015What is the height of wall being constructed. Here in Georgia you need engineered certification when the wall is over 4 ft. On block walls we use a product sometimes called geogrid which is laid flat going into the bank of the wall . On the following link if you scroll down you will see a picture of where it goes and how. It keeps the wall from shifting, falling down when water moves through and settles. http://mariettalandscapeservice.com/Marietta-landscape-retaining-wall.htmlHelpful Reply
