Turning Piedmont Slopes Into Usable Outdoor Space
Many Triangle properties have significant grade changes – hillsides, sloped yards, terrain that doesn’t naturally lend itself to pools and patios. The question isn’t whether retaining walls can help, but whether your specific lot can become the outdoor space you’re imagining.
- We assess what's possible first. We look at grade percentage, soil stability, and drainage patterns. Some properties need one wall, others need terraced systems.
- We engineer for stability. Retaining walls fail without proper drainage and foundation. We build foundations that account for Piedmont clay soil.
- We create usable flat space. The goal is level ground you can actually build on and enjoy. We terrace slopes into stable platforms that support pools and patios.
- We work around what you want to keep. Mature trees, existing landscape features, sight lines. We design walls that work with these elements.
- We match materials to your property. Natural stone for traditional homes, modular block for contemporary designs, poured concrete when budget matters.
