// Retaining walls in Burnaby
The wall types and finishes we build most around Burnaby Mountain.
The local stuff that actually matters.
Burnaby Mountain's grades and shallow bedrock pockets often call for a hybrid wall: shorter geogrid runs, a keyed-in footing, and sometimes a drilled anchor where the bedrock comes up.
Most of our calls in Burnaby come from homeowners around Burnaby Mountain and Capitol Hill, plus Brentwood. Whether you're building from scratch or replacing a wall that's leaning, the assessment is the same: walk the slope, check the drainage, figure out what's really going on, and quote the job honestly.

Questions from Burnaby homeowners.
Yes, if your wall is over 1.2 metres (about 4 feet) tall. The City of Surrey requires an engineered design and a building permit for anything taller. Walls under 1.2 metres usually don't need a permit, but if your wall supports a driveway, a building, or sits near the property line, the city may still want to see drawings. We handle the whole permit process for you.
