Retaining Wall Construction in Alpharetta, GA

Professional Retaining Wall Construction in Alpharetta, GA

Slopes in Alpharetta don't manage themselves. Properties backing up to the Chattahoochee corridor, lots in Windward that drop several feet from patio to property line, and yards near Sawnee Mountain with natural grade changes all need structural solutions that hold soil in place, manage water runoff, and create usable outdoor space where there was none. A properly built retaining wall is that solution when drainage alone isn't enough.

Retaining wall failure in Alpharetta is almost always a base and drainage problem. Georgia red clay holds water behind walls and creates hydrostatic pressure that pushes them forward over time. We engineer drainage into every retaining wall — gravel backfill, drainage pipe, and weep holes that relieve pressure before it builds up. The base course goes below the frost line and into stable subgrade. We've torn out and rebuilt walls in Devonshire and Manor North that failed within five years because the original drainage wasn't done correctly.

We build retaining walls in natural fieldstone for a North Georgia aesthetic, segmental concrete block for larger structural walls, and dry-stacked stone for informal garden terraces. Every wall is sized and engineered for the load it needs to hold. Call (770) 366-3160 for a free estimate.
