1700 Linear ft Retaining Wall | Builder Hadco | Grantsville, Utah

Project Overview

Spanning across three newly developed apartment lots in Grantsville, Utah, this large-scale retaining wall installation showcases the durability and efficiency of EPS foam technology on a commercial scale. With over 1,700 linear feet of EPS core wall completed in just three weeks, this project was a collaboration between 123 Built and Hadco that prioritized speed, performance, and seamless integration with the multi-unit build. Designed to be expanded with an additional 500 feet in future phases, the wall serves as a foundational structure for tiered landscaping and long-term soil retention. The smooth stucco finish complements the apartment exteriors, while the clean lines and scale of the install showcase how EPS foam solutions can streamline even the most complex developments.

Builder Statement

This project was a clear demonstration of how fast and effective EPS foam systems can be, even at scale. With a four-person crew and a phased excavation approach, we were able to complete over 1,700 linear feet of wall in just three weeks prepping the site for functional landscaping and long-term stability. The clean stucco finish brings a refined look to the property, while the foam core ensures energy efficiency and resilience for years to come.
