The Best Retaining Wall Contractors in Pittsburgh

A retaining wall is a long-term investment, so we take the time through each step of the process to make sure you will be happy with your decision for years to come. We utilize proper compaction methods in appropriate lift heights while incorporating Geogrid. Every wall comes with a drainage system and is back-filled with clean stone. We build walls made to last and put the finishing touches on the project like fixing the grass or landscaping.

Versa-Lok Block Retaining Walls

Versa-Lok blocks are the most structural and cost-effective option for retaining walls. They come in different colors, allowing you to customize your wall and they are all generally the same price. The concrete blocks pin together and are very heavy, increasing the lifespan of your wall. They must be built correctly by a professional to get the most out of it. We also utilize other segmental blocks such as Techo Bloc and EP Henry.

Boulders and Natural Stone Walls

We build a lot of boulder walls for home owners looking for more of a natural look.  We generally recommend keeping boulder walls under 4 feet tall depending on the situation and frequently install one or two-tier boulder walls as an aesthetic feature.  Sometimes it makes sense to restack an existing natural stone wall and we have done that many times before.

Compaction is key

We build retaining walls for our clients on a compacted stone base. Compaction of the foundation is the most important part of the job. Failure to thoroughly compact the base is devastating to the longevity and appearance of a Versa-Lok retaining wall. We own multiple types of compactors that are best for specific situations. A drain is installed behind the wall along the bottom, and then we fill behind the wall with clean 2b limestone.

Mulching, Decorative Stone & Boulders

Mulch is a great way to refresh your existing landscape or add beds in areas difficult to maintain.  The fresh mulch is a great way to prevent weeds, and a crisp edge along the beds will keep the grass out.

Using stone in your beds is a great alternative to mulch because it lasts considerably longer. This solution is basically permanent, with the only maintenance being a small addition of stone to worn out areas every few years.  Stone barely fades over time and proves much more durable against erosion.
