Masonry Contractor serving Corona, California

Corona's distinctive hillside neighborhoods like Eagle Glen, Sierra Del Oro, and Corona Hills present unique challenges that require specialized masonry expertise. The sloped terrain combined with Southern California's clay-based soil creates significant pressure on retaining walls and foundation structures. Without proper engineering and construction, these forces lead to wall failure, soil erosion, and potential damage to homes and landscaping.

At FMA Fontana Masonry, we have extensive experience building retaining walls specifically designed for Corona's terrain. We assess your property's slope, drainage patterns, and soil composition before recommending the right solution. Our walls incorporate proper drainage systems that prevent water buildup behind the structure, which is essential in preventing freeze-thaw damage and hydrostatic pressure. We use reinforced construction techniques and select materials that can handle the unique stresses of hillside installations.

Beyond structural integrity, we design retaining walls that enhance your property's aesthetic appeal and usable space. Terraced walls create level areas perfect for patios, gardens, or play spaces while protecting your home from soil movement. Whether you need a tall engineered wall or a series of decorative garden walls, we bring the technical knowledge and craftsmanship to build solutions that last for decades.
