Professional Retaining Wall Construction That Lasts
We combine precision engineering with premium materials to build retaining walls that stay put and stand proud.
Every wall we install is backed by thoughtful design, skilled craftsmanship, and a commitment to long-term performance.
What to Expect When You Work with Us
We take the guesswork out of outdoor transformations. From first consult to final stone, our clear, collaborative process ensures your retaining wall adds value, beauty, and peace of mind.
- Consultation and Design
- Site Preparation
- Foundation Installation
- Precision Wall Installation
- Backfill, Clean-Up & Final Walkthrough
Every successful wall starts with a solid plan. We begin by assessing your yard’s slope, soil type, drainage needs, and aesthetic goals. Then we create a custom design that blends strength with style—tailored to your space and your vision.
We don’t build on shaky ground. Our team clears the area, stabilizes the soil, and prepares the site to handle the weight and pressure your new retaining wall will hold. Proper prep now means fewer problems later.
Retaining walls need more than good looks—they need a foundation that won’t budge. We install a deep, compacted gravel base and integrate a drainage system that moves water away from your wall, protecting against pressure buildup and failure.
Here’s where the structure takes shape. Our skilled crew lays each block with precision, checking levels, alignment, and interlock strength. The result? A retaining wall that’s as solid as it is striking.
Once the wall is complete, we backfill with proper materials to reinforce the structure and prevent shifting. We clean the site thoroughly and walk you through your new retaining wall to ensure it meets expectations—and then some.

What they say
Client Reviews
As the owner of a small business, I was very pleased to hire Dylan. He took away the responsibility of looking after my lawn. Now when I come into work, the grounds look wonderful and I don’t have to do a thing.
My wife and I have used McIsaac LawnCare since 2013 and have had them cut our grass, spring clean up and look after our landscaping needs. Not only are they very professional, but they also go out of their way to make sure we understand why they are doing things a certain way.
Common Questions
Most Popular Questions
Have questions about hardscaping timelines, materials, or design? Here are answers to some of the most common inquiries to help you plan your perfect outdoor space.
How long does it take to build a retaining wall?
Most residential retaining walls take between 3 to 10 days to complete, depending on the wall’s length, height, material, and the condition of the site. Walls requiring drainage solutions or excavation may take a little longer.
What’s the best material for a durable retaining wall?
Concrete blocks and interlocking wall systems are popular for their strength and clean look. Natural stone offers timeless beauty, while timber is a more budget-conscious option—but less long-lasting. We’ll help you choose based on slope, soil, and style.
Do retaining walls require drainage?
Yes—proper drainage is critical. Without it, hydrostatic pressure can build up behind the wall and cause cracking or collapse. We always install backfill layers and perforated drain pipes to ensure water escapes safely.
How long will a retaining wall last?
With proper installation and materials, a retaining wall can last 30+ years. Factors like drainage, soil type, and wall height play a role, but expert construction is the key to long-term performance.
