This project involved the installation of a durable block retaining wall that not only manages soil erosion but also adds visual structure to the property. Our process included excavation, a compacted gravel base, and proper drainage solutions like a perforated pipe and washed stone. The result is a functional, long-lasting retaining wall that complements the home’s landscape while protecting against winter freeze damage.

Retaining walls offer both functional and aesthetic advantages in landscaping. They prevent soil erosion, manage water drainage, and create usable space on sloped terrain. In addition to enhancing the visual appeal of your property, retaining walls can increase its value by adding structure and definition. Durable and low-maintenance, they are an effective long-term solution for managing uneven landscapes and supporting various landscaping features like garden beds and patios.
This back yard patio project consisted of hardscaping a beautiful 2 tier lannon stone paver patio with an embedded fireplace to overlook Lake Michigan.
The North Coast Team transformed a simple grassed area between two mature trees with a preparation of the area including some excaviting and leveling before gravel and lannon stone pavers to construct the final 2-tier patio could be finished with beautiful landscaping.
As the team build each layer, gravel is compacted to create a solid foundation for the larger blocks to build the wall, or larger flat pavers to create the natural stone patio.
