How we work
Assess the slope
We look at height, soil and water flow to choose the right wall system and drainage.
Footing & drainage
A compacted gravel footing, perforated drain pipe and clean stone backfill keep pressure off the wall.
Build & cap
The wall is built course by course, checked for level, and finished with caps.

We recently had our landscaping project completed, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The team completely transformed the side of our house with a beautiful paver walkway, clean stonework, retaining wall, and landscaping that looks absolutely incredible. Their attention to detail was outstanding, and the finished work is both functional and visually stunning. From start to finish, they were professional, hardworking, and clearly took pride in their craftsmanship. They showed up when they said they would, kept everything clean and organized, and made sure every detail was done right.
