Beautiful Retaining Wall Design & Installation

Retaining walls require thought and planning just like any other building project. They may look like simple stacked stone, blocks or timbers, but they are actually carefully planned systems that wage an unending battle against gravity. Retaining walls can be beautiful as well as functional, allowing you to level, retain or terrace a sloping area in ways that normally cannot be accomplished with grading. There are many available materials for use in constructing a retaining wall, each with their own pros and cons (and price points).

Common retaining wall materials include:

  • Timbers
  • Natural Stone Boulders
  • Natural Stone Blocks
  • Segmental Concrete Blocks
  • Brick
  • Concrete
