Retaining Walls
Structural walls built by masons — proper base, drainage, and reinforcement for your slope and soil.
What it is
Why homeowners choose retaining walls
A retaining wall solves a problem before it looks good: it holds back soil, controls water, and turns an unusable slope into flat, usable yard.
This is where our masonry roots matter most. Walls fail from bad drainage and undersized bases, not pretty stone. We build with proper footing, drainage stone, filter fabric, and geogrid reinforcement where the height and soil require it.

Questions
Retaining Walls FAQ
Do retaining walls need a permit?
Often, yes — commonly above four feet, but requirements differ by Virginia locality. We confirm and handle permitting as part of scheduling.
Can a wall fix my drainage problem?
It can be part of the fix. We assess water flow across the whole property, then combine walls with grading and drainage so runoff moves away from your home.
How long do they last?
A properly engineered wall lasts decades. The variable is always the base and drainage behind it.
