Part of your yard slopes, washes out in storms or drops off toward the house. Or you want raised planters and a seat wall around the patio. Pure Turf & Hardscape USA builds retaining walls in Las Vegas, NV that hold soil in place, control where water goes and add structure to the yard.
A wall that holds back soil has real pressure behind it. It has to be built for that.
When You Need Retaining Walls
Signs include soil washing onto patios or walkways after a storm, a slope you cannot use, water running toward the house, or an existing wall that is leaning or cracking. Many homeowners also want raised beds, planters or seat walls for looks and function.
A leaning wall only gets worse. The soil behind it keeps pushing, especially after heavy rain.
Retaining walls also create usable space. A sloped backyard can become a flat lawn and a raised patio. A front yard can get a raised planter that adds height and color. Walls can double as seating around a patio or fire pit.
Walls can also screen equipment like pool pumps and AC units, or define the edge of a play area or dog run so the rest of the yard stays clean.
Our Retaining Wall Process
We look at the slope, the soil and where water flows, then design the wall in your 3D plan. Our crew digs a trench, builds a compacted footing, and sets the first course level. As the wall goes up, we add drainage rock behind it so water does not build up and push.
We finish with caps and blend the wall into the patio, turf or planting around it. A supervisor checks the work each day.
Short garden walls and tall structural walls are very different jobs. Low walls that edge planters or patios are straightforward. Taller walls that hold back a lot of soil need more planning, deeper footings and, depending on height and location, may need engineering or permits. We will tell you what your wall needs before work begins.
We match the wall block to your pavers and home so the hardscape looks like one design.
Steps can be built into a wall where the yard changes level, so you can walk from the lower patio to the upper lawn safely. We plan those transitions in the design so they feel natural.
Retaining Wall Cost in Las Vegas
Cost depends on wall length and height, the block style, how much digging and soil moving is needed, drainage, and caps or steps. Taller walls need more planning. You get a detailed quote before work begins.
Building a wall at the same time as a patio or turf project often saves money, because the digging and soil moving happen once. A wall that is planned with drainage costs less than one that has to be rebuilt after it fails.
Why Choose Us
Our own employees build every wall. We hold Nevada C10 License #0089066, we are bonded and insured. One customer had turf, landscaping and stone walls installed and wrote that "everything was excellent from start to finish."
Our crews build walls along with the patios, walkways and turf around them, so the whole yard is finished by one team.
Walls are built one course at a time, and each row has to sit level for the wall to stay straight. If a wall needs engineering or a permit because of its height, we tell you before the quote is final, not after the trench is dug.
