Custom Brick Retaining Walls

 

Every property is different. Some yards need a small retaining wall to help define a garden or planting area. Other projects may need a larger wall to help manage changes in elevation.

 

Our brick masonry work can be designed around the size, shape, and appearance of your outdoor space. We focus on brickwork that looks like it belongs with the existing property instead of looking like an afterthought.

 

Our brick retaining wall projects may be used for:

• Sloped yards

• Garden areas

• Landscape borders

• Raised planting beds

• Walkways

• Driveways

• Outdoor living areas

• Property boundaries

• Commercial landscaping

• Decorative outdoor spaces

 

Why Build a Brick Retaining Wall?

A retaining wall can serve both a practical and decorative purpose.

 

A properly planned wall can help separate different levels of your yard. It can also create defined areas for landscaping, plants, walkways, or other outdoor features. Brick adds another benefit. It can give the wall a finished masonry appearance that works well with many homes and commercial properties.

 

A brick retaining wall can help:

• Define outdoor areas

• Create raised landscape beds

• Improve the appearance of a sloped area

• Separate different levels of a yard

• Create attractive borders

• Add a lasting brick feature to your property

 

The exact design and construction method should depend on the site, wall size, soil conditions, drainage needs, and other project conditions.

 

Brick Retaining Wall Construction

A retaining wall is more than a row of bricks.

 

The wall must be planned for the conditions where it will be built. Soil, water, slope, drainage, wall height, and the surrounding property can all affect the project.

AZ Masonary looks at the project area before beginning the work.

 

Depending on the project, the work may include:

1. Reviewing the proposed wall location.

2. Discussing the purpose and appearance of the wall.

3. Measuring the project area.

4. Preparing the work area.

5. Preparing the base and foundation as required for the project.

6. Building the masonry structure.

7. Addressing drainage and water-management needs when applicable.

8. Completing the brickwork.

9. Cleaning the work area.

 

The exact construction process will depend on the project.

Masonry Retaining Walls for Homes

Residential retaining walls can be used in many areas around a home. 

A brick wall can be used to frame landscaping, separate planting areas, or add structure to an outdoor space.

​

Some homeowners also use masonry walls as part of a larger outdoor design that includes brick walkways, brick steps, patios, columns, or lattice walls. This can help different brick features work together instead of having each feature look separate.

 

Retaining Walls for Businesses

Retaining walls are not limited to residential properties. Businesses, offices, churches, property managers, and other organizations may need masonry walls around outdoor areas.

 

A brick retaining wall can help organize landscaping around:

• Business entrances

• Walkways

• Parking areas

• Monument signs

• Landscaped areas

• Commercial properties

• Community entrances

 

AZ Masonary can discuss your project needs and determine what type of brickwork may be appropriate for the property.

 

Brick Retaining Walls vs. Other Retaining Walls

There are many types of retaining walls.

 

The right material depends on the property, wall design, site conditions, budget, and intended use. Brick masonry can be a good choice when the appearance of the wall is important and you want the wall to work with other brick features on the property.

​

A brick retaining wall can also be combined visually with other masonry features such as brick columns, brick walkways, brick steps, or a brick sign base.

 

What Does a Brick Retaining Wall Cost?

The cost of a brick retaining wall depends on the project.

There is no single price that applies to every wall. Important factors can include:

• Wall length

• Wall height

• Site conditions

• Amount of excavation

• Soil conditions

• Drainage requirements

• Brick and material selection

• Foundation requirements

• Access to the work area

• Labor

• Removal of existing materials

• Engineering or other professional requirements when applicable

 

A small decorative landscape wall will usually have different requirements from a large retaining structure. That is why AZ Masonary recommends looking at the actual project before providing a final price.
