Retaining Walls & Stonework

Walls, terraces, and stone steps built to hold — and to impress.

Whether it’s a stone wall, a terraced slope, a walkway, or a custom staircase, we help you choose the right spot, design, size, proportions, and materials for the look you want — then build it with the craftsmanship to last for many years.

Turn a slope into usable space

Retaining walls do real work — holding back soil, managing water, and creating flat, usable areas out of hillsides. Done well, they’re also one of the most striking features in a landscape. We build walls using a wide variety of materials, including segmental block, natural stone, and brick.

Wall styles we build

  • Block retaining walls — clean, strong, and available in many colors and textures.
  • Natural stacked stone — a timeless look that suits Northwest gardens.
  • Terraced walls and planters — step a steep yard down in layers and add planting space.
  • Driveway and entry walls — define the approach to your home.
  • Stone steps and staircases — safe, beautiful access up and down slopes.

Craftsmanship where you can’t see it

A wall is only as good as what’s behind and beneath it. We’re passionate about quality construction: a compacted base, careful leveling of the first course, drainage aggregate behind the wall, and reinforcement where the design calls for it. That attention to detail is what keeps a wall straight and strong for years to come.

Designed with the rest of the yard

We’ll help you choose the right location, height, proportions, and materials so the wall complements your home, your patio or walkways, and the plantings around it.

Common questions

Why is drainage behind a retaining wall so important?

Water pressure building up behind a wall is one of the main reasons walls lean or fail — especially in Oregon’s wet winters. We build in drainage so water has somewhere to go.

Can a retaining wall also be a planter?

Absolutely. Terraced walls and raised planters are a great way to add color and soften a wall while making a sloped yard more usable.
