Des Moines Custom Retaining Walls

Hey neighbors—Mr. Lee here in Des Moines, WA! Got a tricky slope or an eyesore hillside? A custom retaining wall is more than just a fix—it’s a chance to add character, level planting areas, and keep water flowing away from your foundation. Let me walk you through how a wall can transform your yard.

Why a Custom Retaining Wall Makes Sense in Des Moines

  • Enhances Curb Appeal: Turn that plain slope into a focal point with a wall that complements your home’s style.
  • Improves Drainage: Properly placed walls channel rainwater away from your foundation and prevent erosion.
  • Adds Usable Space: Create level terraces for garden beds, seating areas, or that fire pit you’ve been dreaming of.
  • Built to Last: Quality materials and construction stand up to our Pacific Northwest rains and temperature swings.

Custom Retaining Wall Options

  • Interlocking Concrete Blocks: Quick to install, comes in a range of colors and textures for a modern look.
  • Poured Concrete Walls: Smooth, durable surfaces that you can stain or finish to match any aesthetic.
  • Stacked Natural Stone: Rustic, timeless charm using flagstone, fieldstone, or local rock—perfect for a natural vibe.
  • Curved & Tiered Designs: Soft, flowing lines or multi‑level terraces add visual interest and function.
  • Timber & Sleeper Walls: Warm, woodsy feel that blends seamlessly with garden plantings—ideal for lower heights.

Let’s Build Your Des Moines Retaining Wall

From the first sketch to the final stone, I handle every step:

  1. Custom On‑Site Consultation: I’ll survey your slope, talk through materials, and sketch a plan that fits your space and budget.
  2. Design & Permit: Clear drawings, material samples, and I’ll pull any permits needed—no extra headaches for you.
  3. Professional Installation: Proper excavation, drainage pipe, crushed stone backfill, and wall assembly—all done right.
  4. Final Touches & Cleanup: We’ll walk the finished wall together, make any tweaks, and haul off debris so your yard is spotless.

Ready to turn that slope into a standout feature? Give me a call for your custom consultation, and let’s design a retaining wall that’s both beautiful and built to last in Des Moines, WA.

Mr. Lee
