Retaining Wall Design in North Vancouver
Altin Engineering LTD designs retaining walls for residential and commercial properties across North Vancouver, West Vancouver and the Greater Vancouver area — new walls, replacements for failing or leaning walls, and retaining structures that form part of a renovation, addition or new build.
What we design
- Cast-in-place concrete retaining walls
- Segmental block retaining walls
- Landscape and garden walls tied into a property’s grading plan
- Retaining structures connected to foundations and buildings
- Drainage and backfill details that keep the wall performing long-term
When you need an engineer
In most BC municipalities, a retaining wall over 1.2 metres in height — or any wall supporting a slope, driveway or structure — needs a building permit and an engineered design. We prepare the drawings and documents your permit application requires, and we carry out field reviews during construction so the wall is built as designed.
What you receive
- Site review and measurements
- Engineered drawings ready for permit submission
- Letters of assurance (Schedule B and C-B) where your project requires them
- Coordination with your contractor and field reviews during construction
