A retaining wall is more than a landscape feature — it’s a structural solution that protects your property from erosion, supports sloped ground, prevents water damage, and creates beautiful, usable space in areas where nature hasn’t cooperated.

When homeowners start planning a new driveway, home pad, garage pad, or parking area, they often assume concrete or asphalt are the only serious options. But more and more property owners are choosing gravel driveways and gravel pads — and for good reason.
