What's beneath our Retaining Walls
At Exterior Designs Masonry, we build retaining walls following industry standards to ensure stability and durability. Depending on the specific project, some walls require a stone footing while others need a concrete footing for optimal support. Additionally, we use high-quality filter fabric to separate the footing from the underlying ground, ensuring long-lasting performance.
What Size Wall Do You Need?
The first step in building a retaining wall is removing the existing one if present. Retaining walls come in various sizes: smaller walls (1-2 feet tall) for holding back a small section of your lawn, medium walls (3-4 feet tall), larger walls (over 4 feet), and even multi-tiered wall systems for more complex landscaping needs. Each wall size is designed to provide the necessary support based on the terrain and landscaping goals.

The Process as We Build Upward
Specs
The specifications for your retaining wall depend on factors like location and wall height. In some cases, an engineer may be required to assess the wall for strength and stability based on local conditions. Retaining walls can be built from various materials. One of the more affordable options is using railroad ties (wood), but over time, these can rot and fail. Another option is Wallstone, which is stacked vertically; while effective, it doesn’t perform as well under pressure compared to a stepped retaining wall system. Retaining walls not only offer structural support but also add visual appeal and functionality to your yard. When exploring your options, it’s essential to research retaining wall companies to ensure a quality installation.

My garage cement floor had been damaged by a tree root that was uplifting it. I called and spoke with Max and he came out to give me an estimate and explained what the job in detail would consist of. I was reassured by the break down of the job description and Max and his team came out once the weather permitted. The guys replaced my cement floor and it was done professionally and very neat and clean. I would most definitely hire them again for future projectsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Mike Secor2023-06-22Looking to transform your backyard? Max Ruiz and his team at Exteriors Designs LLC are the experts to call! They blend professionalism, expertise, and commitment seamlessly to deliver top-notch results. My house is smack-dab in the middle of a busy city, with narrow streets and alleyways - a real headache for any renovation job. But Max and his team? They worked wonders. They didn't let the lack of space for heavy machines slow them down. Instead, they tackled everything by hand, making the challenging situation look like a breeze. Their skills really shone through when they laid down geotextile fabric and crushed gravel, leveling out my yard and setting the stage for what was to come. They added paving stones, which instantly gave my yard an inviting and cool vibe. But they didn't stop there. They built a cozy gazebo - my new favorite hangout spot. Plus, they added a practical, yet good-looking, retaining wall at the back of my yard. What stuck with me was Max's dedication. When a minor issue popped up post-construction, he personally came back to sort it out. He really goes the extra mile to ensure his clients are happy. To wrap it up, Max Ruiz and his team at Exteriors Designs LLC are the go-to guys for any landscaping needs. They totally transformed my backyard, and I wholeheartedly recommend them. A huge shout-out to Max for turning my backyard into my own slice of paradise!
