Types of Retaining Walls We Build

Decorative Stone Retaining Walls

Perfect for landscaping and curb appeal. We use decorative stones in various sizes and colors to create stunning walls that are as functional as they are beautiful.

Concrete Retaining Walls

These are the workhorses, durable and ideal for controlling erosion, protecting property, or leveling steep yards. Our reinforced concrete walls are engineered to support extreme weight and environmental pressure.

Tiered & Multi-Level Walls

Ideal for large or sloped landscapes. These layered systems add stability and create functional outdoor spaces, like garden beds or seating areas.

How We Build Better Retaining Walls

Site Evaluation & Engineering

We begin by reviewing your property, verifying drainage needs, and removing the old concrete if necessary.

Proper Drainage is Key

All walls include drainage systems to prevent water buildup and pressure.

Reinforcement & Materials Matter

From poured concrete walls with rebar steel reinforcement to interlocking stone, we use materials that stand up to Kentucky weather.

Finishing Touches

We complete the look with clean lines, tailored finishes, and optional decorative features.
