Retaining Walls Built to Hold, Drain, and Impress
Retaining walls are structural elements first and aesthetic ones second. A beautiful wall that fails due to poor drainage, inadequate base preparation, or improper batter becomes a safety hazard and a costly repair.
We build walls that are engineered to last — using proper aggregate bases, drainage systems, and quality materials. The result is a wall that holds its ground for decades while adding significant beauty and usable area to your property.
Retaining Wall Design
Structural engineering of retaining walls to properly address slope, load, drainage, and aesthetic goals in a single integrated solution.
Natural Stone Walls
Building dry-stack and mortared natural stone walls that add timeless character and blend naturally into the surrounding landscape.
Segmental Block Walls
Installing engineered retaining wall block systems (Allan Block, Versa-Lok, etc.) for maximum strength, durability, and design flexibility.
Slope Stabilization
Correcting dangerous or eroding slopes with properly engineered walls and plantings that permanently stabilize the grade.
Drainage Integration
Building drainage systems (French drains, weep holes, aggregate backfill) into every wall to prevent hydrostatic pressure failure.
Garden Terrace Walls
Creating beautiful multi-level garden terraces using low stone walls that transform steep, unusable slopes into productive planting areas.
What's Included
- Site evaluation and slope/drainage assessment
- Retaining wall design and material selection
- Excavation and base preparation
- Proper aggregate base and compaction
- Wall construction with batter and alignment
- Drainage system installation
- Backfill and soil compaction
- Cap stone or top course finishing
Why Drainage Makes or Breaks a Wall
Water is the number one enemy of retaining walls. Without proper drainage behind the wall, water pressure builds up after rain and causes walls to lean, crack, or collapse entirely — sometimes within just a few years.
Every wall we build includes appropriate drainage to relieve this pressure. It adds cost, but it's the difference between a wall that lasts and one that fails.
