Retaining Walls in Central Georgia
A retaining wall has one job: hold back soil for decades without bulging, leaning, or failing. That comes down to base prep, drainage behind the wall, and the right block for the load. We build residential walls from 1 foot to 6 feet with engineered drainage built in.
How we handle retaining walls.
We work in segmental block (Belgard, Pavestone, Keystone), natural fieldstone, and dimensional cut stone. Every wall gets a compacted gravel base, gravel chimney behind the wall, perforated drain pipe, and geogrid reinforcement when height requires it. Walls over 4 feet are engineered and permitted.
Gravel chimney, drain pipe, and weep outlets — water never builds up behind the wall.
Walls over 4 feet get proper geogrid reinforcement and engineered plans.
Belgard, Pavestone, Keystone — not the lightweight block from a box store.
