Concrete Footings & Retaining Walls

Structural Support and Erosion Control

At Gravix Evans Concrete, we install concrete footings and retaining walls that provide essential structural support and protect your property from erosion. Our installations are engineered to withstand the forces of soil pressure, water runoff, and Colorado's challenging weather conditions.

Concrete Footings

Footings are the critical foundation elements that distribute structural loads into the ground. We install footings for new construction, additions, decks, porches, and other structures that require solid support. Our footings are poured to proper depth below the frost line and sized according to engineering specifications and local building codes.

Retaining Walls

Retaining walls serve multiple purposes: they prevent soil erosion, create level areas on sloped properties, and add functional beauty to your landscape. We design and build retaining walls that effectively manage water drainage while providing long-lasting structural integrity. Whether you need a small garden wall or a large-scale erosion control system, we have the expertise to deliver results.

Common Applications

• Building foundation footings
• Deck and porch support footings
• Retaining walls for sloped yards
• Erosion control and landscaping
• Structural support walls
• Terraced garden installations

Engineering and Design

Proper retaining wall design requires careful consideration of soil conditions, drainage, wall height, and lateral pressure. We work with engineers when necessary to ensure your retaining wall is properly designed for its intended purpose. Our installations include proper drainage systems to prevent water buildup behind the wall, which is essential for long-term stability.

Quality Construction

Every footing and retaining wall we build starts with proper excavation and base preparation. We use appropriate reinforcement including rebar and tie-backs when needed. Our concrete mixes are selected for strength and durability. The result is a structure that will perform reliably for decades while requiring minimal maintenance.
