Retaining walls come in various forms, shapes and sizes. They can include mortar or not and they can be uniform or not as well. Retaining walls can be made out of multiple materials such as concrete, stone, bricks, or even wood. Like most masonry structures they are heavy, solid, and practically immovable structures. They provide separation between sections and areas within a landscaping context.

These structures are multi-functional. It is always a fun challenge to see what slightly new situation our customers need a retaining wall for. We love being able to help them with problem solving around what the customer is looking for and what their property will allow to be done. A few of the more popular reasons we see people wanting to install retaining walls is to make slanted or unstable surfaces flat and to provide a barrier to entry for a specific area.

Retaining Walls can make your property look better, safer, more attractive and also help with erosion problems in areas where water or soil could run off of steep slopes causing flooding or other issues. It helps prevent damage to buildings caused by these natural occurrences which provides you peace of mind. The retaining walls maintain stability for hillsides that have buildings on them so they don't become unstable during heavy rainfalls as well as preventing environmental hazards such as landslides from occurring. They can serve many purposes including drainage improvements, retaining embankment material and curbside protection.
