Retaining walls in Maple Ridge, BC.
Maple Ridge is where acreage and hillside residential come together, and as a retaining wall contractor in Maple Ridge we handle both. The Silver Valley development area and the older properties on the hillsides above the Alouette River have some of the most challenging grades we work on anywhere in the Lower Mainland. Boulder walls are our most common output here, machine-placed and keyed into the slope for maximum stability. Long terrace runs on 5-acre lots, horse paddock cuts, and hillside driveway access walls are all projects our crew builds regularly in Maple Ridge.

The wall types and finishes we build most around Silver Valley.
The local stuff that actually matters.
Maple Ridge's mix of acreage and steep Silver Valley hillsides is classic boulder-wall country. We bring the machine, key into the slope, and back-drain everything.
Most of our calls in Maple Ridge come from homeowners around Silver Valley and Albion, plus Hammond. Whether you're building from scratch or replacing a wall that's leaning, the process is the same: walk the slope with you, check the drainage situation, figure out what's really going on, and give you an honest written quote.
Albion and Thornhill in Maple Ridge have a mix of established residential properties and newer developments where retaining wall demand is consistent. The soils here include gravelly glacial till on the hillsides and organic material in lower-lying areas near the valley floor. For hillside work on the till, boulder and block walls perform well with standard drainage. For lower-lying lots near the river, we assess the drainage situation more carefully before we quote. Maple Ridge building permits are handled through the District and we manage the submission.

Questions from Maple Ridge 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.
