Paver patio installation with retaining wall by Cavisa Solutions

Retaining Walls
& Grade Changes.

Engineered retaining walls that manage slopes, prevent erosion and turn unusable yard space into level, functional outdoor living area.

Turning a Sloped Yard Into Usable Space

We build retaining walls using engineered block systems designed to hold back soil on sloped or uneven lots. Each wall is set on a compacted gravel base with proper drainage behind it, so water pressure doesn't build up and push the wall out of place over time — a common problem with walls that skip this step.

For taller walls, we reinforce the wall with geogrid tied back into the soil for added stability, and we can build tiered or terraced walls with integrated paver steps or a seat wall where it makes sense for the layout. Beyond managing grade changes, a well-built retaining wall is often what turns a sloped, unusable side yard into level space for a patio, pool or lawn.

FAQ

Retaining Wall FAQ

Do you build retaining walls for sloped yards?

Yes. We design and build retaining walls to manage grade changes, help prevent erosion, and turn sloped or unusable yard space into level, functional outdoor living area.

How tall can a retaining wall be built without special engineering?

Shorter walls can typically be built with standard engineered block systems and proper base and drainage work. Taller walls need additional reinforcement (like geogrid) and, depending on height and local code, may require engineered plans — we'll advise on what your specific wall needs during your estimate.

Do retaining walls include drainage?

Yes — proper drainage behind the wall is a core part of how we build it. Without it, water pressure can build up behind the wall over time and push it out of place, so we grade and backfill accordingly on every wall we install.

Can steps or seating be added to a retaining wall?

Yes. We can integrate paver steps for access between grade changes, or build a seat wall into the design where it fits the space.
