Common Questions

Hardscaping in Nottingham, Answered

Our yard is steep. Can a retaining wall give us flat space?

Yes. A wall set into the slope holds the soil back and leaves level ground above or below it for a lawn, a patio or a garden. On a tall grade, two shorter walls stepped back from each other are a common alternative to one tall wall.

What keeps a retaining wall from bulging over time?

Dealing with water. Soil behind a wall holds water, which adds weight and expands when it freezes. A wall needs clean stone behind it and a way for that water to get out at the bottom.

Our old wall is leaning. Can it be rebuilt?

Yes. A wall that leans, cracks or bulges usually comes down and gets rebuilt on a proper base with drainage behind it. Tell us roughly how long and how tall it is in the form below.

Can steps go through the wall?

Yes. Steps can be built into a new retaining wall so you walk straight from the lower yard to the upper one. If you already have a wall, describe it in the form and we will tell you what is possible.
