Retaining Walls

Retaining walls are commonly used to level or retain slopes and give them a more vertical character. Generally, the more restricted or congested the site, the greater the need for retaining walls to provide usable space for landscape purposes. Some retaining walls are functional, constructed for structural needs, and other retaining walls are built for visual appeal. Retaining walls built for visual effect sometimes feature an informal shape, they often complement other landscape features such as plants and hardscapes.
