When you need this
A few situations where this is usually the right call.
Your wall is over four feet (1.2 metres) tall
City of Surrey requires a permit. So do Langley, Delta, and White Rock. The permit needs an engineered design.
You're building near a structure
Walls within 1.5 times their height of a house, garage, or pool need to be engineered for that load.
You're on a steep slope
Once the slope behind the wall exceeds about 18 degrees, the engineering changes. We catch this on the site visit.
