Retaining Walls & Stone Work
A retaining wall is a drainage project wearing a masonry costume. Built right, it holds its line for decades. Built without drainage, it leans within a few seasons, and North Georgia clay is unforgiving.
What to look for
What we build
Segmental block walls
Engineered block with compacted base, drainage stone and geogrid where height requires it.
Natural stone walls
Fieldstone and stacked stone for a softer, more established look.
Terracing
Two shorter walls instead of one tall one, often better looking and better engineering on a steep lot.
Steps and walkways
Stone treads and landings tied into the wall system.
Drainage correction
Perforated pipe, gravel backfill and daylight outlets so hydrostatic pressure never builds behind the wall.
Repair of failing walls
We take apart what is leaning, fix the base and drainage, and rebuild.
Questions
Retaining Walls & Stone, answered
Almost always drainage or base preparation. Water trapped behind a wall in Georgia clay generates enormous pressure, that is what pushes walls over, not the soil weight.
