Book Retaining Walls in Asheville

You're looking at a sloped property that needs structure, usable space, and protection from erosion, and that's exactly what a well-built retaining wall provides. In Asheville, where steep lots and heavy rainfall are common, the right wall design makes all the difference.

How Our Process Works

You'll begin with a site visit where the crew evaluates slope, soil stability, and drainage requirements for your Asheville property. This assessment determines wall height, material selection, and the best placement to manage water runoff and prevent shifting. You'll see a design plan that balances function with the look you want for your outdoor space.

During construction, the team prepares the base with excavation and compaction, then installs footings and drainage systems before placing block or pouring concrete. Argueta's Grading and Concrete, LLC uses reinforcement and drainage fabric to ensure stability on hillside properties. The crew's attention to detail means your wall performs well in heavy rain and freeze-thaw cycles.

For landscape walls, the team integrates design elements that complement patios, walkways, and garden beds. Structural retaining walls focus on load-bearing capacity and long-term erosion control, ideal for new construction or outdoor living upgrades on challenging terrain.
