Segmental block, poured concrete and natural stone retaining walls for Ann Arbor homes, HOAs and businesses. Built on a compacted base with proper drainage so they stay straight through Michigan winters. Licensed, insured and backed by a free written estimate.
A good retaining wall turns a sloped, washing-out yard into flat, usable space and keeps soil away from your driveway, patio or foundation. Concrete Contractor Ann Arbor designs and builds custom retaining walls for homes, HOAs and commercial properties across Ann Arbor and Washtenaw County.
Most failed walls in Michigan lean or bulge because water gets trapped behind them and freezes. Here is how we prevent that:
Adding a patio on the new level ground? See our concrete patio services. We can build the wall and pour the patio as one project.
Not sure which wall is right for your property? Here is how the common options compare for Michigan soil and winters.
Costs are typical ranges for Ann Arbor. Wall height, access, drainage and engineering needs change the price. Your exact price comes with a free on-site estimate.
Most segmental block retaining walls run about $30–$55 per square foot of wall face, installed. Poured concrete and natural stone cost more. Height, drainage, access for equipment and whether the wall needs engineering all affect the price. We give you a written quote after a free on-site visit.
Short landscape walls usually do not. Walls taller than about 4 feet, or walls that hold up a driveway, building or other load, typically need an engineered design and a permit. We check the rules for your address and handle the paperwork when it is required.
Almost always water. When water is trapped behind a wall it adds pressure and freezes in winter, pushing the wall out. Drain pipe, clean stone backfill, a solid base and geogrid on taller walls prevent this.
A properly built block, poured concrete or stone wall lasts 50 years or more. Timber walls usually last 10 to 20 years before they rot and need replacing.
Most residential walls take 2 to 5 days depending on length, height and access. Larger tiered or commercial walls can take one to three weeks.
Sometimes a short section can be rebuilt, but if the wall leans because it has no drainage or base, the right fix is usually to take it down and rebuild it correctly. We will tell you which makes sense after looking at it.
