Foundation and Retaining Walls

Foundation and Retaining Walls

These represent two highly prevalent applications of concrete and are among our frequently requested services. We consider the use of concrete for property foundations to be of utmost importance. While acknowledging our bias as a concrete company, we firmly believe that it is the optimal material for this critical task. The foundation serves as a fundamental element, and the reliability and durability of concrete contribute significantly to its effectiveness.



Similarly, retaining walls play a crucial role in offering stability and structure across your property. Beyond their functional significance, these walls can be employed creatively to enhance the overall value and style of your design.

Foundation work stands as a cornerstone of our responsibilities as concrete contractors, and it is an essential task whenever cracks or issues arise in your concrete foundation. While the foundation of your home or commercial property may not be a frequent topic of discussion, its significance cannot be overstated. During property transactions, the foundation undergoes inspection, and the findings can significantly impact the asking price. Consequently, regular maintenance and inspections are crucial to identifying and addressing any cracks or issues promptly.


If you require a quick inspection, do not hesitate to inform us, and we can easily schedule a visit to assist you. Following the assessment, we can determine whether immediate action is necessary. Moreover, we are more than willing to provide guidance on what signs to observe during your own regular inspections, ensuring a robust foundation for years to come. For those embarking on new construction, our services also encompass foundation installation and preparation. Whether it's formwork and installation or repairs and maintenance, Concrete Masonry Manchester is ready to address all your foundation needs. Let us know how we can assist you.


Retaining Walls

Retaining walls play a versatile role in both residential and commercial properties, contributing to landscape organization and design. In commercial properties, retaining walls along curbs in parking lots create secure areas for plants and vegetation to thrive, ensuring they remain in designated spaces and allowing the overall area to be utilized effectively. Similarly, in residential settings, retaining walls find utility in both front and backyards. Concrete retaining walls stand out as a cost-effective and highly reliable option. While stone or brick alternatives can introduce additional color and unique appeal, they often come with a higher price tag.


These walls can encircle steps and courtyards, especially in properties that aren't entirely flat, offering safety and security for plants against both human and animal interference. Retaining walls play a crucial role in protecting gardens and garden beds, allowing plants to flourish without undue interference or disruption. It's worth noting that many structures surrounding homes and yards essentially function as glorified retaining walls. If any of these structures require additional support or replacement, don't hesitate to inform Concrete Masonry Manchester, and we'll address it promptly.
