Feature Specification

1

A retaining wall that fails isn't just an eyesore - it's a costly problem. We design walls with proper footing depth, batter, and drainage so they perform structurally for the long term. Whether you need a low decorative terrace or a wall managing significant grade change, we size and build it to handle the load.

2

Boulders, natural stone, concrete block, or dry-stacked flagstone - the right material depends on your site, the wall's function, and how it fits with the rest of your outdoor space. Boulder County's natural landscape lends itself to locally sourced stone like Lyons Red sandstone and Colorado moss rock, and we work with these materials regularly to achieve results that feel at home in the Colorado landscape.

3

The number one cause of retaining wall failure is water pressure building up behind the wall. We incorporate proper drainage - gravel backfill, drain pipe, and weep holes where needed - on every wall we build. Boulder County's expansive clay soils make this especially critical, and it's a step we never skip.

We Take Care Of It All

A Seamless Process from First Call to Final Walkthrough

‍

Collaborative Design

‍

Our Design + Build process starts with you. We listen to your ideas, understand your budget, and develop a design proposal tailored to your property. Once you approve the plan, everything moves forward with one cohesive team - no hand-offs between a design firm and a separate contractor.

‍

Professional Installation

‍

Our experienced construction crews bring the design to life with the same attention to detail that went into planning it. Jay Watkins, our Construction Manager, oversees every project to ensure quality at each stage - from foundation prep through final installation.

When the work is complete, our designer or project manager meets with you on-site to walk through the finished space. Any items that need attention are noted and resolved promptly. We don't consider a project done until you're satisfied.
