Retaining walls may be a necessary structural element for your yard, but they don’t have to be ugly or dull. Retention walls can also make a strong design statement that elevates your space and ties it all together visually.
At Pitt Landscape & Construction, we understand the importance of safe and effective retention walls and structures. When we incorporate them into your landscape design, however, yours will be as aesthetic as they are functional.
Whether you prefer the natural look of boulders or dry stacked stone, or the sleek look of poured concrete, Pitt Landscape & Construction can bring your concept to life.
For a truly unique look, consider adding gabion elements to your retaining wall design. Gabion walls use a cage-like metal structure filled with stone – usually river rock or recycled concrete in varying sizes – for a high level of visual interest. Gabions are environmentally friendly and the favorite choice of many architects and designers today.
Whether you prefer the warmth of wood timbers, the vitality of block or the drama of raw steel, we can create your walls using those materials best suited to enhance your landscape design.
Boulder retaining walls are a cost-effective way to retain your terraces and can be built into any natural or modern landscape design. Pitt Landscape & Construction can stack the boulders in a way to provide room for ground covers and foliage to add to the natural look or stack them in a straight brick like pattern that goes with a modern design. Pitt Landscape & Construction is your number one boulder retaining wall contractor in Utah.
If you are trying to save some space or want a sleek looking retaining wall installing retaining wall block will do the trick. Block retaining walls may have different styles, colors, and patterns that can be stacked in a unique way to complement your landscape design. Whether it’s free standing or a retaining wall Pitt Landscape & Construction is your leading block wall installer.
If you are a big fan of concrete and like the clean modern look a concrete wall is right for you. Concrete retaining walls can be colored, formed, and finished in many ways that will provide you with a durable, long lasting retaining wall that looks amazing.
For an industrial, modern, or natural look a steel retaining wall can be utilized to accent or retain your landscape. Steel will rust over time which helps protect and prolong its lifespan.
If your lot is sloped or irregular, retention structures are the perfect way to create tons of usable outdoor space.
By sculpting your yard into distinct planes or tiers, then structurally retaining their vertical surfaces, Pitt Landscape & Construction can create raised patios, pergolas, outdoor kitchens and view decks, designed to enhance the beauty and value of your home.
We engineer every design to exacting safety standards, designed to meet or exceed all governing building codes. Our experienced installation teams ensure that your retention system will endure decades of the harsh northern Utah weather conditions.
In addition to any retaining walls necessary for the construction of your landscaping, we recommend tying the design together with accent walls and hardscape elements, to create a cohesive look and feel to your outdoor space.
Rock walls or smaller, decorative structures can be designed to match your retention walls. Used as planters, seating, fountains or fire pits, these design elements provide amazing visual interest and flow, and help define the space.
You can also add privacy and block out the noise of the world by adding perimeter fencing to your yard. By incorporating the design of your perimeter fence into your retention systems, you’ll create a seamless space that’s as peaceful as it is visually appealing.
Don’t forget about paths and stairways, to facilitate the safety and usability of your yard. We can design and craft integral steps and paths that follow the natural flow of your lot, ensuring safety and sure footing for family, pets and visitors.
