Our Process

How Foundations & Retaining Walls Works

From first call to final walkthrough — here’s what to expect when you work with us.

1

Site Evaluation & Estimate

We review your plans, assess soil and slope conditions, and provide a detailed written estimate for the foundation or retaining wall work required.

2

Excavation & Layout

We excavate to the required depth, establish grade, and lay out footing locations or retaining wall alignment according to plans and local code.

3

Forming, Reinforcement & Construction

We set forms to exact dimensions, place steel reinforcement reinforcement, and pour — ensuring everything is level, square, and properly supported. For retaining walls, we incorporate drainage provisions and proper batter.

4

Cure, Backfill & Finish Grading

We cure the concrete properly, strip forms, backfill in compacted lifts, and finish-grade the area — leaving a solid, stable result ready for the next phase.

Why Choose Us

Why Our Foundations & Retaining Walls Stands Out

A foundation carries the entire load of the building above it and must withstand soil pressure, moisture, and freeze-thaw cycles. Retaining walls face the same forces — holding back tons of earth on sloped lots, hillsides, and tiered landscapes. LVC Contractors has been building both for over 20 years in the Lehigh Valley and Pocono Mountains. We handle every phase — excavation, footing layout, forming, pouring, drainage, and backfill. Whether you need a basement foundation for a new home, a slab for a garage, or a retaining wall to stabilize a hillside, we deliver the structural integrity your project demands.

Structural Integrity You Can Trust

Every foundation and retaining wall we build uses 4000 PSI concrete with steel reinforcement reinforcement — exceeding standard requirements for maximum strength.

Engineered for Northeast PA

We design for the specific soil conditions, frost depth requirements, drainage challenges, and slope pressures of the Lehigh Valley and Pocono Mountains region.

Complete Project Control

We self-perform excavation, forming, pouring, drainage, and backfilling — keeping your project on schedule with a single point of accountability.

Code-Compliant & Inspectable

Our work meets all local building codes and is ready for inspection. We coordinate with inspectors to keep your project moving without delays.

FAQ

Common Questions About
Foundations & Retaining Walls

We pour full basement foundations, slab-on-grade foundations, crawl space foundations, and footings for additions, garages, sheds, and outbuildings. We'll recommend the right type based on your project and site conditions.

In the Lehigh Valley and Pocono Mountains area, footings typically need to be at least 36 inches below grade to get below the frost line. We ensure all foundations meet or exceed local frost depth requirements to prevent heaving and cracking.

We build poured-in-place concrete retaining walls and concrete block retaining walls, depending on site conditions and aesthetic preferences. We recommend the best option after assessing the slope and soil.

Drainage is critical. Without proper drainage, water pressure builds up behind the wall and can cause it to fail — often within just a few years. We incorporate gravel backfill and drainage pipe in all retaining wall installations.

Yes — we have our own excavation equipment and handle all digging, grading, and backfilling in-house. You work with one contractor from start to finish.

All our work uses a 4000 PSI concrete mix reinforced with steel reinforcement. This exceeds the standard 2500-3000 PSI used by many contractors and provides significantly greater strength and durability.
