Retaining Walls 
in Utah County. 

A retaining wall holds a slope in place so the ground behind it stays put, and turns a hillside you can’t use into level yard you can. TerraSummit Earthworks builds block and stone retaining walls for homes and business properties across Utah County and Salt Lake County.

Retaining Walls in Utah County & Salt Lake County
Walls are only as good as what’s underneath them, so we prepare and compact the base first, and plan for drainage behind the wall before the first block goes in.

Built for sloped Utah lots

Benches and foothills from Draper and Herriman to Provo and Springville leave a lot of homes with a sloped yard. A properly built retaining wall keeps soil from washing out, protects what’s below it and gives you flat ground for a lawn, patio or garden.

How it comes together

From the groundwork  to the finished yard. 

01

Ground prep

We grade and level the property first, so water drains the right way and everything built on top stays put.

02

Build

Retaining walls go up block by block, then patios, walkways and hardscaping are laid on a solid base.

03

Finish

Sod rolls out, plants go in and water features come on.

04

Maintain

Then we keep it looking that way, with lawn care, aeration and seasonal cleanup.
