Retaining Wall Design Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we come out to assess your specific situation. Every slope is different, every drainage pattern matters, and we need to see what we’re working with before we can give you a real solution.

Then we handle the installation from excavation to final grading. We build retaining walls that are engineered to last, not just look good for a few seasons. When we’re done, you’ll have functional outdoor space and drainage problems that are actually solved.

Retaining wall costs depend on height, length, materials, and site conditions. A basic concrete block wall typically runs $15-25 per square foot, while natural stone walls range $25-40 per square foot. More complex projects requiring significant excavation or drainage work will cost more. We provide detailed estimates after evaluating your specific property conditions, so you know exactly what you’re investing in before we start.
In Pennsylvania, retaining walls over 4 feet high typically require building permits. Even shorter walls may need permits if they’re supporting significant loads or affecting drainage patterns. We’re familiar with Village Green-Green Ridge permit requirements and handle the application process when needed. It’s better to get proper permits upfront than deal with compliance issues later when you sell your home.
The best material depends on your budget, aesthetic goals, and site conditions. Concrete blocks offer durability and cost-effectiveness for most residential projects. Natural stone provides superior aesthetics and longevity but costs more upfront. Brick works well for shorter decorative walls. We’ll recommend the right material based on your wall height, soil conditions, and long-term maintenance preferences during our site evaluation.
Properly installed retaining walls with adequate drainage should last 20-50 years depending on materials and conditions. The key is proper construction from the start – correct base preparation, drainage integration, and appropriate materials for your specific application. Most retaining wall failures happen within the first few years due to poor installation, not material problems. That’s why choosing experienced contractors matters more than just finding the lowest price.
Yes, when designed correctly. Retaining walls include drainage systems that redirect water away from problem areas and prevent buildup behind the wall. We integrate French drains, weep holes, and proper grading to manage water flow effectively. However, severe drainage issues may require additional solutions like catch basins or underground drainage systems. We’ll evaluate your specific drainage challenges and recommend the complete solution your property needs.
Most residential retaining wall projects take 3-7 days depending on size and complexity. Simple straight walls move faster than curved designs or projects requiring significant excavation. Weather, permit approval, and material delivery can affect timing. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during project planning and keep you updated if conditions change. You’ll know what to expect so you can plan accordingly.
