Key Benefits of This Service

Retaining walls do more than hold back dirt. They prevent erosion during storms, create level planting zones, and define outdoor spaces with clean lines and structure. In Gaston, where slopes and drainage can shift with seasonal rain, a properly engineered wall protects your investment and opens up new possibilities for your yard.

Fishers Lawns & Walls evaluates soil type, water flow, and load-bearing needs before construction begins. Walls are built with compacted base layers, drainage systems, and interlocking or mortared materials for long-term stability. The result is a feature that's both functional and visually appealing.

Materials include segmental concrete blocks, natural stone, and pressure-treated timber. Each option offers different textures, colors, and installation techniques. Walls can be straight, curved, or tiered depending on your site and design goals.
