Make the slope usable
Retaining Walls & Slope Grading
Boulder, natural stone and engineered block retaining walls, terracing and seat walls that hold North Georgia hillsides and gain usable yard.
Retaining Walls & Slope Grading in North Georgia
Most failed walls in this region didn't fail structurally — they failed because water had nowhere to go. Every wall we build is a drainage system first and a stone feature second.
What we see most often
- Existing walls leaning, bulging or shedding stone
- Steep ground that leaves no flat, usable yard
- Erosion cutting behind and beneath wall footings
- Terraces that trap water against the house
Scope of work
What this work includes
Natural stone & boulder walls
Locally sourced stone set for the look of the property, from rustic boulder tiers to tight-fit dry-stack.
Engineered segmental walls
Block systems with geogrid reinforcement where wall height and surcharge loads call for it.
Drainage & base
Compacted base, clean drainage stone, filter fabric and perforated pipe daylighted somewhere useful.
Terracing & steps
Multi-tier layouts, stone steps and planting shelves that turn an unusable slope into level, livable ground.
Flat, usable space where there was a bank — built to stand without maintenance.
