Wall construction is a masonry work that can have structural purposes (retaining earth), functional (enclosing plots) or decorative. It includes foundation, raising the wall with the chosen material and, if necessary, a drainage system. A prior study of the land is fundamental.
Built to support the thrust of earth or water. Made with reinforced concrete, stonework or retaining blocks. Include drainage to prevent water accumulation.
Used to delimit properties. Can be built with concrete block, natural stone, brick or combinations. Adapted to the aesthetics of the environment.
Typical on the Costa del Sol, built with loose stones (rubble) without mortar. They are very resistant and blend perfectly into the natural landscape.
We explain how we build a wall from start to final delivery.
We evaluate the type of soil, slope, water table and load to design the wall with the appropriate dimensions, materials and foundation.
We excavate to reach firm ground and build a reinforced concrete foundation according to structural calculations.
We build the wall with the chosen material (concrete, block, stone) and make expansion joints if necessary.
We install drainage pipes if necessary, fill with appropriate material and apply aesthetic finishes (whitewash, paint, decorative formwork).
We perform a final cleaning of the work area and deliver the built and functional wall.
