Retaining walls are often built as something pleasing to the eye; whether constructed to provide a tiered effect, or to showcase specific types of plants. Retaining walls can offer low maintenance on a difficult slope, hill, or landscape.


In the South Hills, however, we have many hills and valleys, so it is essential to have the right concrete structure around your yard. Homeowners can find shifts or settle in and around their property, and retaining walls offer a solution to keep soil where it belongs. Retaining walls help disperse water, provide a comfortable habitat for plants and vegetation, and give a break from constant lawn maintenance.
