Mountlake Terrace's geology is characterized by Vashon Stade glacial deposits, with prevalent Alderwood-Kitsap and Alderwood gravelly sandy loam soils. These soil types, combined with the city's varied topography featuring significant elevation changes and steep slopes, often lead to poor drainage and increased risk of erosion. Retaining walls are frequently necessary to manage these challenging conditions, prevent landslides, and create stable, usable land.
The City of Mountlake Terrace requires a building permit for any new retaining wall or the rebuilding of an existing wall exceeding 4 feet in height. Additionally, projects involving retaining walls on slopes 15% or greater necessitate a geotechnical report.
A homeowner in the residential area near Veterans Memorial Park in Mountlake Terrace recently faced significant erosion in their sloped backyard. We designed and installed a multi-tiered retaining wall system, not only stabilizing the hillside but also transforming the previously unusable space into a functional terraced garden area, enhancing both safety and property value.
