What Are Retaining Walls?
Retaining walls are relatively rigid walls used for supporting soil laterally so that they can be retained at different levels on the two sides.
Retaining walls are structures designed to restrain soil to a slope that it would not naturally keep to.
​
There are structural retaining walls that need engineering and anchoring, which we are licensed for, and there are ornamental landscaping retaining walls that are mainly used for gardens, landscaping, and more.

Structural Retaining Walls
A retaining wall is a structural feature that supports your landscaping and prevents erosion. Retaining walls can be made from different materials including concrete, bricks, and stone.

Most structural retaining walls are anchored under the ground where it is not visible to the eye. Once anchored, structural retaining walls can hold a great amount of earth from moving.

Ornamental Retaining Walls
Ornamental Retaining walls are hardscape elements that keep the earth in place. The retaining wall is generally stronger and built with different construction materials to maintain the shape of your garden or deck.
Although the wall can be decorative, its purpose is to hold the dirt where you want it.

Ornamental Retaining Walls should complement the overall decor and bring form, function, and beauty together to create a beautiful outdoor space.
Allen Block Retaining Walls
Allen block retaining walls are a type of retaining wall system made from concrete blocks. These blocks are designed to interlock with one another, creating a stable and durable wall that can hold back soil and other materials.
Allen block retaining walls are a popular choice for a variety of landscaping and construction projects, including retaining walls for gardens, walkways, and driveways. They are known for their ease of installation, as the blocks can be stacked and arranged in a variety of configurations to suit the needs of the project.
One of the advantages of Allen block retaining walls is that they are highly customizable. The blocks are available in a range of sizes and colors, so they can be tailored to match the aesthetic of any project. They are also designed to be lightweight and easy to handle, which can save time and effort during installation.
However, it's important to note that retaining walls can be complex structures that require proper design, construction, and maintenance to ensure their long-term stability and safety. It's recommended that you work with a qualified professional like us if you are planning to build an Allen block retaining wall or any other type of retaining wall.
