Turn a hillside into usable outdoor space

A retaining wall holds back soil and helps create level areas for a lawn, patio, planting bed, or walkway. The right solution depends on your slope, soil, access, and how water moves through the property. We assess those conditions before recommending a wall layout and materials.

  • Create more usable backyard space.
  • Define planting beds and changes in elevation.
  • Plan retaining walls alongside patios, steps, and outdoor living areas.
  • Address grading, drainage, and erosion concerns as part of the project.

Natural stone, boulder, and engineered block walls

Natural stone and boulders bring texture to a landscape. Engineered block offers a consistent finish and options for terraced layouts. We help you compare materials for your property’s needs, appearance, and budget. Wall height, loads, and site conditions determine whether engineering or additional approvals are needed.

Grading and drainage belong in the same plan

Water management matters around a retaining wall. We consider runoff, drainage behind the wall, and the surrounding grades when planning the work. Depending on the site, the project may also include a dry creek bed, drainage improvements, or changes to the lawn and planting areas. Explore our grading, drainage, and erosion control services.

Retaining wall questions

How much does a retaining wall cost?

Cost depends on wall length and height, materials, site access, excavation, drainage, and any engineering requirements. An on-site assessment is the best way to get a quote for your property. Request your free on-site quote.

Do you build both stone and block retaining walls?

Yes. Executive Green installs walls using natural materials and engineered block. We can discuss which options fit your property and the surrounding landscape.

Can a retaining wall fix every drainage problem?

A wall and a drainage system solve different problems. Some properties need both; others may need grading or drainage improvements without a wall. We assess the site before recommending the scope.
