Building a Retaining Wall

Retaining walls serve multiple purposes in landscaping, from preventing problems like soil erosion and drainage issues, to creating an aesthetically pleasing feature in your landscape design.

Like patios, there are many different types of materials to consider when designing your retaining wall. Our landscape design team will meet with you to understand your needs and your style and develop a plan to fit your budget.

Types of retaining walls

Natural Stone Walls add character and texture to your design, while still serving a very practical purpose to prevent erosion and manage slopes. There are many different types of stone, each with unique characteristics and price points. Our landscape designer will help you understand the options for a natural stone retaining wall.

Concrete Retaining Wall Blocks are used in both commercial and residential landscaping projects. They are ideal to use for load bearing walls, but can be a practical choice for residential landscaping walls as well.

Outcropping Walls create a very natural and rustic look. These large retaining wall blocks can be a stunning addition to your landscape.

Boulder Retaining Walls can be a more cost-effective way to define your landscape. They require minimal maintenance once installed and are eco-friendly. Our landscape designers will often use boulders as decorative garden features in your landscaping plan to complete the look.
