Retaining Walls for Erosion Control in Holmen & Galesville

Retaining Walls for Erosion Control in New Construction Homes in Holmen & Galesville, WI


A new house is quite exciting!!! Until your sandy soils start running off quickly into the street or your neighbor’s yard.


As new construction continues to expand across Holmen and Galesville, homeowners are discovering a common challenge — erosion caused by sandy soil and fast water runoff. While new subdivisions offer beautiful homes and growing communities, they often come with sloped lots and loose soil conditions that require proper landscape stabilization.


At Sunshine Services, we specialize in professionally installed retaining walls designed to protect your property, improve usable yard space, and increase long-term home value.

Why Retaining Walls Are Essential for New Construction Homes


Many new developments in the Holmen and Galesville area are built on terrain with sandy soil composition. This type of soil drains quickly and shifts easily, which can lead to:


  • Soil washout after heavy rain
  • Yard erosion and loss of landscaping
  • Uneven ground or slope instability
  • Foundation drainage concerns
  • Limited usable outdoor space


Professionally installed retaining walls stabilize the land by holding back soil and managing water flow. Retaining walls help prevent erosion, protect landscaping, and create level spaces for patios, gardens, and lawns.


When you are looking for the best retaining wall company near you, call Boston at Sunshine Services to discuss your erosion concerns and yard usage goals.
