Galena sits in the Driftless Area, the one part of the Midwest the glaciers never flattened, so the terrain is real hills and limestone bluffs instead of the flat ground most of Iowa has.
Galena is a different kind of job than most of our service area. It's in the Driftless Region, so instead of the flat glaciated ground you get across most of eastern Iowa, Galena has real elevation, hillside lots, limestone underneath, and a lot of historic homes built into the slope. That terrain is exactly where retaining wall work earns its keep, proper base and drainage matter even more on a grade like this. We make the drive across the river for it regularly.
Walls that hold — built with proper base and drainage, not just stacked block.
