RESIDENTIAL & COMMERCIAL SERVICES



Our team of experts will custom design a retaining wall that suits your needs and budgets. Outside walls are typically installed to take advantage of yard sloping, landscaping, and other features. We have built walls around pools, trees, and stair steps, under fences, and between neighbors for privacy. We have also installed them to prevent eroding land and divert water from driveways and walkout basements, support problematic sloped areas, and make hill space usable.



reTAINING WALL PURPOSES & MATERIALS



A retaining wall’s purpose is to shape and contain soil where there is slope or hilly area, to control erosion, and offer a foundation for additional landscaping on challenging terrain. Our custom walls are also used often to add an eye-catching dimension to flat areas or as planting beds for gardens.


Depending on the location of the wall and its’ purpose, one material might work better than another. It may also depend on your budget as to what material is most effective for your lawn. We install and repair walls made of concrete blocks, poured concrete, wood, bricks, and natural stone for commercial business, townhouses, apartments, condos, and homes.



Concrete blocks





Concrete blocks have become one of the more popular picks for retaining walls. They come in a wide range of shapes, textures, colors, and sizes. This variety makes it relatively easy to build a free-standing wall that works with most architectural designs. We can help you design and choose a colors and styles that blend with your yard, landscaping, and home exterior.


Concrete block walls of the 2020s are complex systems built for strength and durability. Blocks are stacked and secure with clips, pins, or interlocking edges that are sturdy enough to control drainage and water runoff. Most are designed to be set on a compacted gravel base. This helps them to bend slightly with ground movement and remain strong. Most can be curved and sculpted.



Natural stone and boulders





Thanks to its completely natural look, many believe that stones make the most attractive walls of all. You have many choices that will blend well with your home and yard style. Designing and building stone walls can be complex and require expertise in engineering. If you need a stone wall taller than three feet, the expertise of a professional is necessary.


We can help you design and install walls made of rubble, cut stone and boulders. Our designs are flexible, customized, and can be curved.



Brick and masonry





Much like natural stone, retaining walls made of brick and mortar have been built and used for hundreds of years. Brick masonry establishes a beautiful aesthetic. While it isn’t totally natural, brick tends to become absorbed by its natural surroundings over time.


Brick retaining walls complement traditional and modern architectural designs. The material is durable, strong, and often lasts for decades with little maintenance.



Wood planks, timber & Railroad ties





Though not as popular as they once were, wood walls pair well with some yards and homes, especially those with a rustic appearance (such as stained stone and wood, as well as plants). As such, the grain and texture are warm and familiar to the eye, making it a good choice when wall aesthetics are important.


Wood plank, timber and railroad tie materials are a solid pick for smaller budgets. They are generally built on gravel beds and nailed together with long spikes.



Poured concrete





A solid concrete wall is a go-to alternative for modern homes and landscapes. Poured walls provide clean walls that work well with contemporary home designs. They are also strong and can be constructed higher than other materials for properties with steep slopes.


Poured concrete has great flexibility and can be formed and molded into any style or shape. The material can also be dyed different colors to create an artistic design.



OUr 4-Step Process





Our trusted crew of retaining wall contractors has the knowledge and experience to take on any wall project – big or small. Depending on the size and height of the wall, you might consider a professional for the job. After all, there are many codes and standards that must be met. A certified retaining wall builder will adhere to all regulations and install a wall that is beautiful to eye, and structurally sound and solid. Our number one goal is to construct a retaining wall that looks great and lasts a lifetime.


Construction and design is most effective when completed by professionals who work through the steps below correctly. Doing so, will limit major maintenance and repair issues in the future.



1. Create A Base



Blocks, stone, and wood must be placed at the correct height below ground as determined by the height of the wall. We understand that a strong base is vital for the wall to last and perform as it was intended.



2. Compact Backfill



Every retaining wall must have stable soil behind it. This dirt is commonly called backfill. Our crew determines the right amount of fill to for the appropriate drainage that your landscape needs.



3. Design Drainage



Because water cannot move through a retaining wall naturally, our designs include drainage channels that prevent cracks and bulges in wall blocks and stone. This is accomplished by installing pipes, adding holes, and/or using the proper amount of fill.



4. Determine Height



The height of a wall has correlation with how much weight it can hold. Standard retaining walls are typically 3-4 feet high without the need for reinforcements. We also can build large commercial retaining walls that require engineering.
