Below, you'll find an overview of the different types of retaining walls we offer, each tailored to fit your style, budget, and functional requirements.

Block Retaining Walls
Block retaining walls are one of the most popular choices for homeowners due to their versatility and durability. Made from concrete blocks, these walls are sturdy, customizable, and easy to maintain. They can be stacked in various patterns to create a clean, modern look or designed to mimic natural stone. Block retaining walls can also be used to create raised garden beds, borders, or boundaries while providing effective erosion control.

Dry Stack Retaining Walls
Dry stack retaining walls are built without the use of mortar, relying solely on the stacking of stones. This gives the wall a natural, rustic appearance, making it a great choice for those looking to integrate their landscape with a more organic aesthetic. The lack of mortar allows water to seep through the wall, reducing pressure and improving drainage. Dry stack walls are durable, eco-friendly, and work well in both formal and informal settings.

Natural Rock Retaining Walls
For those who want a truly natural look, natural rock retaining walls offer the perfect solution. These walls use stones sourced from local quarries, providing a rugged and timeless look that blends seamlessly with the environment. Natural rock walls are incredibly durable and offer excellent resistance to weathering, making them ideal for slopes, hillsides, or areas prone to heavy rain. They also provide excellent drainage and can be shaped to fit any landscape.

Wood Retaining Walls
Wood retaining walls bring a warm and rustic appeal to any yard. Made from pressure-treated lumber or timber, these walls provide a natural look that complements gardens, patios, and outdoor spaces. While wood may not be as long-lasting as some other materials, it’s a budget-friendly option that can be treated and sealed for improved durability. Wood retaining walls work well in terraced gardens and can easily be built to different heights, adding a layered effect to your landscape.

Concrete Retaining Walls
Concrete retaining walls are known for their strength and durability, offering a sleek, modern look that can be customized in various ways. They are ideal for larger projects and steep slopes where stability is a concern. Concrete can be poured into molds to create smooth, clean lines, or it can be stamped to resemble other materials such as brick, stone, or tile. Concrete walls provide a long-lasting solution for preventing soil erosion, managing water flow, and improving the overall aesthetic of your landscape.

Cultured Stone Retaining Walls
Cultured stone retaining walls combine the natural beauty of stone with the lightweight and cost-effective benefits of manufactured materials. These walls are made from a blend of concrete and natural stone aggregates, allowing them to mimic the look of real stone while offering the durability and strength of concrete. Cultured stone walls come in various textures and colors, giving you the flexibility to match your existing landscape design. They’re a great choice for creating an elegant, timeless look without the expense of real stone.
