Irrigation & Drainage
Retaining Wall Installation
Boulder and block walls that hold steep mountain grade, stop erosion and turn unusable slope into level living space.
What it covers
The beginning of a great-looking yard starts with the structure. We build retaining walls, patios, outdoor fireplaces, water features and walkways — and on the steep lots common across the Wasatch Back, the wall usually comes first.
A properly built wall does more than hold soil. It creates the level terraces that make a sloped property usable, and it controls where water goes during snowmelt.
What’s included
- Natural boulder and armor stone walls
- Segmental block and engineered wall systems
- Terracing to create usable level ground
- Erosion control on steep and unstable grade
- Integrated drainage behind every wall
- Structural stone steps and access between levels

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Boulder or block — which is right?
It depends on grade, height, access and the look you want. Boulder walls suit mountain properties and read as natural; block systems give a cleaner line. We cover both at design stage.
Do walls need drainage?
Always. Water trapped behind a wall is the single most common cause of failure, so drainage goes in behind every wall we build.
Can a wall make my slope usable?
That is usually the point. Terracing converts slope you cannot walk on into level lawn, patio or planted areas.
How tall can you build?
Height drives engineering requirements and permitting. We assess the specific grade on site and tell you what the lot will support.
