Retaining Walls

Retaining Wall Installation in Asheville, NC and Surrounding Areas

If your property includes sloped terrain, drainage issues, or areas prone to erosion, a retaining wall could be the solution. At Backwoods Grading, Landscape & Excavation, we build custom retaining walls that combine durability with curb appeal. Serving Asheville, Fairview, Hendersonville, and Weaverville, our team creates structures that both support your land and elevate the look of your outdoor space.

Functional and Decorative Retaining Walls for Every Property

Retaining walls are more than just a way to hold back soil. They’re an opportunity to reshape your landscape and enhance your property’s visual appeal. We design and install walls that:

Stabilize sloped yards
Turn steep hills into usable, terraced spaces for planting, patios, or pathways.
Prevent soil erosion and water runoff
Protect your home and landscaping by redirecting water and holding soil in place.
Create planting beds and garden borders
Use retaining walls to frame flower beds, trees, or shrubs with natural stone or block materials.

Enhance outdoor living areas
Integrate seating walls, raised beds, or decorative stonework to blend seamlessly with patios and hardscapes.
