We offer a wide range of design options, including various materials, textures, and colors, allowing you to create a retaining wall that perfectly complements your property's aesthetic.

Cost depends on wall height, total square footage, material choice (block, poured concrete, or natural stone), site access, and how much excavation and hauling is needed. Drainage requirements, reinforcement like geogrid, and whether we remove a failing existing wall also affect the total. We visit your property, measure, assess soil conditions, and provide a written estimate before any work begins.
In many cases, walls above a certain height or those supporting a driveway, structure, or steep slope require permits and stamped engineering. Requirements vary by jurisdiction within the Springfield and Greene County area. During your site assessment we'll tell you what applies to your project and coordinate the necessary drawings and inspections.
Small garden walls often take a few days. Larger, taller, or terraced walls with heavy excavation, drainage systems, and backfill can take one to two weeks or more. Weather, wet soil, permit review, and material lead times can extend the schedule. We give you a projected timeline with your estimate and keep you updated as work progresses.
Yes. Our scope typically covers site layout, excavation, base preparation and compaction, drainage stone and perforated drain pipe, filter fabric, wall construction, backfill, and cap or finish course. We also haul away spoils and debris. Anything outside that scope, such as landscaping, irrigation, or fencing on top of the wall, is spelled out clearly in your estimate.
We build with segmental concrete block, poured concrete, and natural stone. Block is versatile and cost-effective with many colors and textures. Poured concrete suits clean modern lines and tall structural walls. Natural stone offers a classic look. The right choice depends on wall height, soil, drainage load, and the style of your home and landscaping.
Yes. Most failures come from poor drainage, inadequate base, or missing reinforcement rather than the wall material itself. We inspect the wall, check what's happening behind it, and determine whether a repair is realistic or a rebuild is the better long-term option. Either way, we correct the underlying drainage and base issues so the problem doesn't return.
