Segmental Block Walls
For clean, modern lines and long-term durability. Interlocking concrete block gives you a wall that holds its shape and its grade without mortar joints to maintain.
A slope that keeps washing out. A bed that erodes a little more with every rain. A patio or pool deck that needs solid ground to sit on. We design and build retaining walls; block, timber, and natural stone … engineered to hold. And because we're landscapers first, your yard looks finished when we leave, not like a construction site.

One "yes" is enough. Erosion doesn't slow down on its own — every storm moves a little more soil, and every season the slope gets a little less stable. The good news? A properly built retaining wall fixes it permanently.

“Professional from the first visit. They walked the property, explained exactly what was happening and why, and the quote was fair. The dry creek bed looks great and actually works.”
“Landscaping Tune-Ups under the leadership and key participation of Thomas did an excellent job of landscaping our entire yard. We wanted a palm tree dominated landscape program to highlight the features of the home and create a strong entrance feature.”
RETAINING WALL
For clean, modern lines and long-term durability. Interlocking concrete block gives you a wall that holds its shape and its grade without mortar joints to maintain.
For a natural look on shorter slopes and budget-conscious projects. Pressure-treated timber ties into garden beds and softscape better than any other material.
For a wall that looks like it was always part of the landscape. Stacked stone handles taller grade changes while blending into planting beds instead of standing apart from them.
Our Process
Here's how we get yours right the first time.
We walk your property — ideally where the water actually collects and find the why: the grade, the soil, the slope stability, the load it needs to hold back.
You get a clear plan and a fixed quote before any work begins. We design for the root cause, not the biggest invoice if a simple regrade solves it, that's what we'll recommend.
Most residential retaining wall projects take one to three days. We protect your irrigation lines, haul away spoil, and restore sod, beds, and plantings because leaving your yard better than we found it the whole point.
Properly built walls include compacted base and backfill drainage most homeowners never see — it's the difference between a wall that lasts decades and one that leans in five years.
Retaining wall costs vary by material, wall height, length, and site access — a short timber wall costs far less than a tall engineered block wall with drainage and footing work.
We'll give you an exact fixed quote after a free on-site assessment, before any work begins.
Most wall contractors leave once the wall is up — beds are disturbed, grading is rough, and you're calling a landscaper to fix what's left.
We're landscapers first. One project, one crew, one point of responsibility, and a yard that looks finished when we leave.
FAQ’s
They're the same thing — "retaining wall" is the correct term, but a lot of homeowners search "retention wall." Either way, it's a structure built to hold back soil on a slope or grade change.
Cost depends on wall height, total length, material (timber, block, or stone), and how much excavation and drainage work is involved. We provide an exact quote after inspecting the site.
Taller walls typically require a permit and engineering; shorter walls often don't. We handle permitting where it's required as part of the project.
Yes — without proper drainage, water builds up behind the wall and is the leading cause of walls leaning, bulging, or failing over time. Every wall we build accounts for it.
It depends on wall height, budget, and the look you're going for. We'll walk you through the trade-offs during your free assessment.
In most cases, yes — a properly built wall stops soil movement at the source. In some yards, it works alongside grading or drainage for a complete fix.
