Stabilize your soil with Geofoam
Injecting Geofoam can provide the same results as a retaining wall.

Geofoam, a dense foam designed for subterranean purposes, serves as an effective alternative to traditional materials like mud or shotcrete. Unlike heavier options, such as mud or shotcrete, spray foam is lightweight while effectively adhering to all surfaces. This makes it a superior choice for applications like slab jacking (lifting heavy objects by injecting material underneath) or stabilizing the ground beneath structures.
Soil stabilization is used in cases where the soil must stay in place, such as hillsides or earthworks. This is commonly done by putting walls, whether shooting shotcrete, or putting in a physical barrier. Large retaining walls are often used on the highway system to keep dirt from eroding away from overpasses.
By injecting foam you can achieve the same results under the surface of the soil. With expanding geofoam under the surface, the foam will act as a root to hold the soil together and make a barrier that is unseen. The top layer of dirt can then be held in place by vegetation.
There are other reasons for using geofoam, too. Even though closed-cell foam is very dense, it’s much lighter when compared to the conventional mudjacking to fix sinking concrete structures. The reason the structure is sinking in the first place is because of weight.
Adding more heavy mud will mitigate settled earth, while geofoam is lightweight and will grow to enough pressure to lift concrete and also stabilize the soil underneath. Because it adheres to almost any kind of material, the earth will be held together during the next flood or quake.
