Perhaps your yard has different levels, you need to keep things in the proper place, or maybe you want to take your yard from bland and ordinary to wow and pizazz. Creating a retaining wall in your yard will help establish characteristics that blend into your home and help express your personality. A retaining wall often becomes the focal point of your yard or patio and can be decorative as well as functional. You can create a retaining wall that requires effort each year from you (planting, weeding, staining) or one you will not have to address, such as concrete and block or brick.

Retaining walls are typically built with natural materials such as rock, block, wood, shrubs, stone, or concrete. Do you envision a wall with large rocks and colorful plants popping out of different areas? Maybe the wall needs to be reliable and sturdy enough to help diffuse a water drainage issue or an area of high wind. Possibly you want a wood retaining wall to use as a garden box to keep your vegetables safe. Perchance it would be best if you created a distinct boundary between two different areas of your yard. Retaining walls can also incorporate stairs, tiers, or be a mixture of other materials. Whatever the reason for a retaining wall, or the look you want to capture, let us take this project from your thoughts and into our hands.
