Retaining walls, built to hold

A retaining wall isn't just landscaping — it's structural. Done right, it holds back tons of soil, manages water, and turns a slope into usable yard for decades. Done wrong, it bows, leans, and fails in a few winters. We've built retaining walls across Halifax for 8+ years, and the difference is always in the part you can't see: the base, the drainage, and the backfill. Our walls run about $75 per square foot of wall face — a 20-foot, 3-foot-high wall (about 60 sq ft) starts around $4,500. Every install comes with a 1-year workmanship warranty, and Jack is on pretty much every job site.
