Making Room on a Sloped Lot
When a yard slopes toward the street or drops off behind the house, a wall cut into the slope holds the grade back, and the ground above it becomes flat lawn, a patio or a bed you can use.
The bank cut back before the wall goes in.

Questions We Hear From Homeowners
Can you replace an old wall that is leaning?
Yes, a leaning wall comes out and a new one gets built in its place, and steps or a second tier can be added at the same time.
Should we build one tall wall or two shorter ones?
It depends on the height of the slope and how you want to use the yard. Two shorter walls stepped back leave a planting shelf between them, and we walk through both options when we see the site.
Can steps go right through the wall?
Yes, granite or block steps can be built into the wall so the slope becomes a way up to the yard.
Do you build patios and walkways too?
Yes, see our Portsmouth patio page and our Portsmouth walkway page.
