Retaining Wall Drainage & Stabilization

Engineered Solutions for Long-Lasting Retaining Walls

At Atlantis Drainage Solutions, we specialize in designing and implementing drainage systems that protect and reinforce retaining walls. Poor drainage is one of the leading causes of retaining wall failure, leading to costly repairs, erosion, and structural instability. Our expertise ensures that your retaining walls remain durable, stable, and functional for years to come.

The Importance of Proper Drainage in Retaining Walls

Water accumulation behind retaining walls can create hydrostatic pressure, which weakens the structure over time. Without an efficient drainage system, excessive moisture can lead to wall bulging, cracking, or even total collapse. We implement industry-leading techniques to prevent these issues, safeguarding your investment.

We design comprehensive drainage systems to keep your retaining walls structurally sound. Our services include:

  • French Drain Installation – We install perforated pipes surrounded by gravel to efficiently redirect water away from the wall.

  • Weep Holes Implementation – We strategically place weep holes to allow trapped water to escape, reducing pressure on the structure.

  • Backfill with Drainage Aggregate – Instead of compacted soil, we use drainage-friendly materials to improve water flow and reduce soil expansion.

  • Geogrid Reinforcement – For added stabilization, we integrate geogrid materials into the soil behind the wall, preventing shifting and failure.

  • Slope Grading & Swales – Proper land grading directs surface runoff away from the retaining wall, minimizing erosion and water damage.

Custom Retaining Wall Stabilization Services

In addition to drainage, we provide stabilization solutions to strengthen existing walls and prevent deterioration:

  • Tieback Anchors & Helical Piers – These reinforcement methods provide additional lateral support to resist soil pressure.

  • Wall Push-Back Systems – Using advanced techniques, we correct tilting or leaning retaining walls without complete replacement.

  • Concrete & Masonry Repairs – We repair cracks, gaps, and deteriorating mortar to restore structural integrity.

  • Waterproof Coatings & Sealants – To further protect against moisture intrusion, we apply professional-grade waterproofing treatments.
