Even the rich sometimes need a little help from us. This poor fellow’s pool, overlooking Puget Sound, was in danger of sliding down the hillside. The soil supporting the patio around the pool was eroding away, and cracks beginning to form. The problem was that the yard had been built up too high, adding weight to the soil of the steep hillside just to the west of the pool. We were able to suggest repairs that would take care of the problem. The solution involved increasing and improving the erosion control on the hillside, as well as additional support for the slab, combined with tiebacks into the hillside, to stabilize the pool structure and keep it from sliding.
Now the 2 million dollar view is safe.
