RETAINING WALLS IN ARLINGTON, TX
Retaining walls hold back soil, manage grade changes, and add structure to a landscape.
Homeowners install retaining walls for a range of reasons — controlling erosion on a slope, creating a level planting area, defining a bed, or adding a built feature to the landscape. The Landscaper Crew evaluates each site individually, since the right approach depends on the grade, soil, and drainage on your property.
WHAT GOES INTO A RETAINING WALL PROJECT
RETAINING WALL CONSIDERATIONS
Site preparation
We evaluate the slope, soil, and how water moves across the area before planning the wall.
Materials
We build with segmental concrete block and natural stone such as stacked stone. Block suits taller, uniform walls and stepped (terraced) designs; natural stone suits lower garden walls and raised beds.
Drainage
Proper drainage behind and around a retaining wall is part of building it to last.
Grading
The finished grade above and below the wall affects how well it performs over time.
Installation considerations
We'll walk you through what your specific project requires before work begins.
Larger or structurally complex retaining wall projects may require engineering, permits, or other professional review depending on site conditions and local requirements.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Cost depends on the wall height, length, material, site access, and drainage needs. We provide project-specific quotes after evaluating the site.
It depends on the wall's height and your local jurisdiction. Some larger walls may require permits or engineering review — we can discuss what applies to your project.
We build retaining walls from segmental concrete block and natural stone. Block walls work well for taller, uniform walls and stepped (terraced) designs, while natural stone is a good fit for lower garden walls and raised beds. We recommend a material after looking at the wall's height, the slope, and how water drains on your site.
Yes. Along with Arlington, we build retaining walls in nearby communities including Mansfield, Kennedale, and Pantego.
A properly built retaining wall with correct drainage behind it can be part of managing water on a sloped property, but every site is different.
