Why people call about this.
The yard slopes toward the house
A wall and regrade can level the yard and turn water away from the foundation.
Soil is washing out of a bed or slope
Every heavy rain carries more of it onto the lawn or the patio.
An old wall is leaning
Usually because nothing let the water out from behind it.
KURTEN, TX
Retaining Walls in Kurten: what’s different here.
Kurten is a small town of about 400 people (395 at the 2020 census), roughly ten miles northeast of Bryan where Highway 21, US 190, and FM 2038 meet. It was settled by German immigrants in the 1860s, incorporated in 2000, and is mostly owner-occupied country homes on acreage. Kurten has its own zoning ordinance, and construction inside city limits needs a Land Use Permit through the Town Clerk’s office; septic systems are permitted through the Brazos County Health District.
Pavers & Hardscape in Kurten
Sandy topsoil over clay means a patio that looks firm at the surface can still move, so the base is dug through the loose layer before anything is laid.
The ground
Kurten is in the Post Oak Savannah, with sandy soils over a clay subsoil under post oak woods, so trees, roots, and a clay layer a short way down shape most outdoor work.
Homes and lots
Country homes on three to five acres and larger tracts along FM 2038 and Highway 21, with very few small town lots.
