Retaining walls in South Jersey

Retaining walls that turn slopes into usable yard, plus garden and seating walls, designed in 3D and built with real drainage.

Retaining Walls done right the first time

A retaining wall holds back soil so you can level a yard, stop erosion or create terraces. It also takes real pressure, which is why base, drainage and backfill matter more than the blocks you see.

We design the wall in 3D so you can see the height, curves and caps on your property, then build it with a compacted base, drainage stone and pipe behind it.

FAQ

Retaining walls questions

Still have a question? Call or text (609) 416-1371 and you'll talk to Luis directly.

Why do retaining walls fail?

Usually water. Without drainage stone and a pipe behind the wall, water builds up and pushes it out. A weak or shallow base is the other common cause. We build both correctly.

How tall can a retaining wall be?

It depends on the block system and the site. Taller walls may need engineering and a permit. We'll tell you what your project needs.

Can you replace an old timber wall?

Yes. Rotting railroad-tie and timber walls are one of the most common replacements we do, usually with block or stone.
