Retaining Walls

What Kind of Retaining Wall Should You Use?

There are many different types of garden retaining walls offered by Doc's Landscaping & Lawn Service. In fact, any kind of material that is strong enough to prop up soil can be used as the building block for a retaining wall. While many people opt for the affordable, but durable, concrete block retaining wall, many landscapers choose stacked limestone, or granite boulders for the aesthetic value. At the end of the day, the type you choose depends on what purpose you need the wall to serve, as well as your own personal taste. That’s why it is important to work with a landscape company that is dedicated to helping your landscaping vision come true.

Hill and Slope Solutions

Thanks to our area of Tennessee's rolling hills and hard clay soil, landscaping can become a bit of a challenge. If your house sits on a slope, it can be hard to keep water and excess soil from building up in the lowest areas of your yard. If your home sits at the bottom of a slope, this can eventually damage your home’s foundation. With retaining walls, you can prolong the life of your landscaping services, and your foundation, so you don’t have to worry about the upkeep.

Functional Space

Terracing can divide your yard into areas specifically designed for certain functions. Section off your outdoor cooking area from the open grass where the kids run around. Create a cozy corner with outdoor furniture and a fireplace, separate from the rest of the yard. This will make your yard seem even larger and create a more private experience. The guests are sure to be amazed next time you have people over.
