Prevent erosion
If you have a sloped on your property, have an erosion or storm water runoff problems, a retaining is a great solution. It is designed to hold back the weight of soil and defend against erosion.
Add Architectural Interest
Whether it’s a home or business, a retaining wall can add interest, provide a contrast in the landscape, create a dramatic entrance, increase property value, and draw the attention of visitors. It can gain further interest with height and texture of natural stone. Some retaining wall styles include the appearance of stacked stone with serrated edges, natural look of marble and travertine, the rich, elegant visual appeal of natural cobblestone, and the inlays in marble and semi precious stones in Stucco.
