Hill to Lawn

Turning a Hill Into Flat Ground

A wall set across the bottom of a hill holds the soil back so the yard above can be graded flat. Steps built into the wall give you an easy way up to the new lawn.

Common Questions

Questions We Hear From Homeowners

Can a retaining wall give me more flat yard?

Yes, that is one of the main reasons people build one. The wall holds the slope back and the area behind it gets graded level.

Do steps have to be separate from the wall?

No, steps can be built right into the wall so the climb up the hill is part of the design.

What happens to the soil you dig out?

We use what we can to level the yard behind the wall and haul the rest away.

Can you add a patio or walkway with the wall?

Yes, a wall often makes room for one, and you can see that work on our Exeter patio page and our Exeter walkway page.
