David and his team did a fabulous job redoing and new roof in my Carolina room. I used to hate that room because of the heat and floods every time it rains. New roof screens and vinyl’s cleaned up looking like new. Now I can enjoy my room year round. No worries how hot the room will get. I was recommended by a neighbor here in South Creek as they had their room redone. The team was very thorough and made sure everything was done perfectly. I would highly recommend him and his team from back porch designs

FAQ
Retaining Wall Construction FAQ
Common questions about retaining wall construction in Myrtle Beach, SC.
A retaining wall is the right choice when a slope is actively losing soil or creating drainage problems that grading alone cannot fix. Many Myrtle Beach properties with sandy coastal soil need a wall to hold the grade long-term.
Water pressure buildup behind a wall is the most common reason retaining walls fail in high-rainfall areas like Myrtle Beach. A wall built with proper drainage integrated into its foundation manages that pressure and stays structurally sound.
Yes, retaining walls work on mild slopes and flat yards too, often used to create raised planting beds or define separate outdoor areas. The wall design is adjusted to match the actual grade and soil conditions on your property.
Yes, David Heath manages every retaining wall project personally at Back Porch Designs And Repairs, so you work with one experienced builder throughout. There is no handoff to a crew you have not met.
Back Porch Designs And Repairs builds retaining walls throughout the Grand Strand area, including North Myrtle Beach, Little River, Longs, Murrells Inlet, Conway, Aynor, Florence, and Pawleys Island.
Most retaining wall failures in the Myrtle Beach area come from poor drainage design or a foundation that was not set deep enough for the soil conditions. Having an experienced builder assess your specific site before construction is the most reliable way to avoid those problems.
