Retaining Wall Options for Every Need
No two projects are the same. That’s why Leggett Asphalt Inc. offers a variety of retaining wall options to suit your specific requirements and style preferences. During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss what you’re looking for – be it a small landscape wall to edge a garden or a sizable structural wall to stabilize a hill – and recommend the best materials and design.
Brick and Block Walls
We can build retaining walls using brick or modular concrete blocks for a classic and refined look. These are great for creating curved garden walls or matching elements of your home’s architecture. They come in various colors and textures to match your aesthetic.
Natural Stone Walls
Using fieldstone, flagstone, or cobblestone, we create gorgeous stone retaining walls that blend into the natural environment. These stone walls have a timeless appeal and are perfect for organic, free-form designs like garden terraces or yard boundaries.
Boulder Walls
A boulder retaining wall could be the answer if you love a rugged, earthy vibe. We carefully stack large stones or boulders to form a strong wall that looks like part of the landscape. Boulder walls are not only sturdy but also allow for excellent drainage.
Wood Timber Walls
For specific settings, pressure-treated timber can be used to build retaining walls (often for more minor needs). These can give a rustic appearance and work well for defining garden beds or minor slope retention. We ensure proper treatment and installation to maximize their lifespan.
Not sure which style suits your property? Don’t worry – our experts will guide you through the pros and cons of each option. We take into account factors like the height of the wall, the load it needs to bear, the soil type, and, of course, your budget and design taste. The end result will be a retaining wall that checks all the boxes: stability, longevity, and visual appeal.
Importantly, all our retaining walls are built with Portland’s conditions in mind. We include features like gravel backfill and weep holes for drainage so water doesn’t build up behind the wall. This prevents the freeze-thaw cycles in winter from pushing the wall out. We also obtain any necessary permits and ensure the design meets local codes if applicable. Our goal is to give you a stress-free experience and a final product that exceeds expectations.
