Compare five companies across five Completed East Queen Anne retaining-wall records, with slope, access, drainage, and bid-scope context.
Five companies, five different construction contexts
The selected records connect five Washington contractors to five Completed East Queen Anne permits: 6810013-CN, 6880866-CN, 6950724-CN, 6865414-CN, and 7028656-CN. The first four Portal license matches were checked September 13, 2026. On October 28, the Portal displayed QUERCLI941OJ for 7028656-CN and L&I listed the matching Quercus registration as active. Verify every registration again before hiring.
Those distinctions matter before requesting bids. A company associated with a broad wall permit should not automatically be credited with a specific structural system, and a landscape-integrated permit is not automatically comparable to a constrained replacement. Open the exact record and ask the company to explain its role, design team, wall system, access, drainage, inspections, and changes.
From permit to comparison
Completed East Queen Anne wall cases in detail
Each case connects a public construction permit to its displayed contractor license and an L&I registration check. Application answers describe the submitted project; they are not independent site findings. Completed status and an inspections-completed date do not certify workmanship, present condition or responsibility for every trade.

How to use this comparison
Ask how the wall and stairs are coordinated with access, grades, temporary support, drainage and any required right-of-way work. Compare bids against the same drawings and responsibilities.
What remains unknown. The short record does not establish the wall system, dimensions, drainage outlet, or which trades the contractor performed. Application answers are declarations, not an independent ECA or permit determination.

Neighborhood-specific context
Construction questions shaped by East Queen Anne’s east slope
The neighborhood aggregate maps 16.22% steep-slope overlap, 17.38% potential-slide-area overlap, and 49 historical known-slide event points. The City’s historical Landslide Study also defines an East Queen Anne Stability Improvement Area on the east-facing slope generally between Dexter Avenue N and Westlake Avenue N. That defined subarea is useful context, not a diagnosis for every address carrying the neighborhood name.
For a site near the east slope, bids should follow the same survey and approved design and should state excavation limits, temporary support, soil and groundwater assumptions, access, protection of neighboring improvements, erosion control, permanent drainage, and the lawful outlet. Patio, stair, driveway, and landscape elevations should be coordinated with the wall rather than left as disconnected allowances.
