Retaining Walls / Muros de Contención
Block, stone, and concrete walls that hold back soil and stop erosion
A premium take on retaining walls / muros de contención
Sloped lots are common from the Sandia foothills to the East Mountains and along the river valley, and a retaining wall is what turns a slope into usable yard. We build block, stone, and concrete retaining walls on a compacted base with drainage behind them, because water pressure is what pushes most failing walls over. Whether you need a low garden wall, terraced planting beds, or a wall that keeps a hillside off your driveway, we plan it for the soil and the slope you actually have.
This service is a good fit for homeowners and property managers who want a clean, professional result without juggling the details themselves. We handle the prep, the finish work, and the cleanup so the space is ready to enjoy when we're done.
Every project covers the essentials
- Segmental block, stone, and concrete walls
- Compacted gravel base for a stable foundation
- Drain rock and drainage behind the wall
- Terraced beds and garden walls
- Erosion control on slopes and arroyos
- Repair or rebuild of leaning walls
