Retaining walls
Which retaining walls can we build?
We build concrete, block and masonry retaining walls that hold back soil and level parts of a yard, for homes and businesses across North Dallas. Because we also build fences, a wall and the fence on top of it can be one project. Retaining wall construction is one of the jobs customers mention in our Google reviews.
- Concrete retaining walls
- Block retaining walls
- Masonry and stone retaining walls
- Fences built on top of walls
- Walls planned with yard drainage
Good to know
Can you build a fence on top of a retaining wall?
Yes. Since we build both, the wall and the fence can be planned together instead of fitting a fence onto a wall later. Two of the projects on this page are fences on top of walls: a stained wood fence on a block wall and a horizontal cedar fence on a low stone wall.
FAQ
Retaining Wall Installation FAQ
What are retaining walls made of?
We build concrete retaining walls and masonry retaining walls, including block and stone. The right choice depends on the wall’s height, the look you want and what’s around it, and we’ll talk through options at the estimate.
Do you plan drainage with a retaining wall?
Yes. Yard drainage is one of our services, and water behind a wall has to go somewhere. We plan drainage as part of the wall.
Can you build retaining walls on commercial property?
Yes. Build Outdoors builds for residential and commercial properties. Call (972) 277-1658 or send the estimate form with the address and what the wall needs to do.
Can a retaining wall be part of a bigger backyard project?
Yes. Walls often go in with a new patio, steps, a fence or turf. We build all of these, so one team can plan the whole yard.
Service area
Which yards in our area need walls most?
Sloped yards show up all over our area, most dramatically in Bluffview, where some lots sit 50 feet above Bachman Branch. Taller walls and fences can need engineered plans; inside Dallas, the city’s permit page explains when. Pick your city below.
