Retaining walls solve grade and erosion problems while adding usable, terraced space to your yard. We design and build retaining walls across Hampton Roads.
Decorative, Seating & Erosion-Control Walls
From low seating walls that frame a patio to taller structural walls that hold back a slope, we build walls that are both functional and attractive.
Engineered for Coastal Grades & Soils
Proper drainage and base preparation are critical for walls in Hampton Roads. We build with the backfill, drainage, and reinforcement the site requires.
We install across Hampton Roads, including Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Suffolk, Portsmouth, Hampton, Newport News, Williamsburg, Yorktown, Poquoson.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do retaining walls need drainage?
Yes. Proper drainage behind a wall is essential to prevent water pressure from causing failure, especially in our wet, sandy soils.
Can a retaining wall include seating?
Absolutely. Seating walls are a popular way to add built-in seating around patios and fire features.
