The scenic, rolling terrain of Town and Country creates both beauty and challenges. Many properties experience:
Soil erosion near hillsides and foundations
Soggy or uneven backyard spaces
Pressure on driveways and patios from sloped soil
Failing older timber or stone retaining walls
Landscape limitations on usable outdoor space
Our custom retaining walls are engineered to solve these issues while enhancing the natural topography of your property. Whether you live along Mason Road, Topping Road, or near Queeny Park, we understand the soil conditions and zoning codes specific to the Town and Country area.
We offer premium retaining wall materials that align with the high standards of Town and Country homes:
Natural Stone Walls – Ideal for high-end curb appeal and lasting structural beauty; limestone and fieldstone are top choices.
Concrete Modular Block Walls – Perfect for strength and design versatility, available in a range of colors and finishes to match estate landscapes.
Brick-Faced Retaining Walls – Combine the structural integrity of block walls with the rich, traditional appearance of brick veneer.
Custom Veneer Stone Walls – A polished and upscale aesthetic ideal for front yards, pool areas, or terraces.
We help you choose the right material based on your home’s architectural style, topography, and lifestyle needs.
Our 5-phase approach ensures each retaining wall meets structural, aesthetic, and environmental expectations:
Site Evaluation and Design Consultation
We begin by walking your property to assess slope, drainage, and soil composition. We also review local zoning and HOA guidelines to ensure compliance.
3D Design and Custom Quote
We provide a tailored design, complete with height, layout, and materials. Our estimates are detailed, transparent, and built around your priorities.
Permitting and Utility Marking
We handle permit filing with the City of Town and Country and coordinate utility locates to ensure safe excavation and compliant construction.
Installation by Certified Crews
We build each wall on a properly compacted base, using geo-grid reinforcement, drainage piping, and professional compaction techniques.
Finishing and Landscape Integration
Once the wall is built, we tie it into your existing yard with grading, planting beds, or patio features. The result is a seamless, elevated outdoor space.
Tiered Garden Walls – Turn sloped lawns into stunning multi-level garden beds.
Driveway Support Walls – Prevent soil collapse or cracking near elevated driveways.
Outdoor Living Space Expansion – Create flat, usable space for patios, kitchens, or pool decks.
Erosion Control – Secure hillsides behind your home to protect your foundation and walkways.
Luxury Property Enhancement – A custom stone retaining wall can raise the curb appeal and appraisal value of your home.
Whether you're improving an older estate or building new, retaining walls can unlock the full potential of your landscape.
Do I need a permit for a retaining wall?
Yes. Most walls over 3–4 feet require a permit in Town and Country, especially if the wall supports a load or alters water flow. We handle all permitting for you.
How much will a retaining wall cost?
Costs vary by material, size, and location, but most premium retaining walls in Town and Country fall between $55–$85 per square foot. Natural stone costs more but adds significant home value.
How tall can a wall be built?
With engineering, walls can reach 6–12 feet or more. For walls over 4 feet, engineered drawings are typically required. We’ll guide you through what’s possible and legal for your lot.
Can you replace my old failing wall?
Yes, we remove and dispose of deteriorating timber or stone walls and rebuild with modern materials designed to last 50+ years.
Will it look natural and match my home?
Absolutely. Our team customizes every project to match your architectural style, stonework, or existing hardscaping for a unified, elegant look.
