Having a retaining wall installed keeps external pressure off your foundation and keeps the water away from it as well. The retaining wall is installed slightly away from the foundation wall and is designed to keep water from ever reaching the foundation walls. The retaining wall then directs the flow of the water it catches to a drainage pipe or sewer system.
