You'll learn how we plan for base excavation, backfill compaction, and drainage integration to keep your wall stable over time. Each step is explained clearly so you understand how the wall will function and fit into your landscape.


Scout Construction uses geogrid reinforcement, engineered drainage channels, and compacted backfill to prevent shifting. We follow best practices for footing depth and material placement.
