Cross Tie Retaining Wall Replacement in Carrollton, TX with Milsap Stone
In Carrollton, Texas, this homeowner’s backyard was held up by an aging cross tie retaining wall that had started to lean and lose its strength. They wanted something sturdier, more attractive, and built to last—so we helped them make the switch to natural Milsap stone.
Removing the Old Wall
We began by dismantling the old wooden cross ties piece by piece. It’s not just about pulling it out quickly—we work carefully to protect the surrounding yard and landscaping. Once the ties were removed, our crew hauled away all the debris, leaving a clear, stable area for the new wall.
Installing a Durable, Natural Stone Retaining Wall
For this replacement, we recommended chopped Milsap stone—a favorite in North Texas for its timeless appearance and weather resistance. After stabilizing the foundation, we built the new wall stone by stone, ensuring each piece was secure and level.
The transformation was immediate. The new wall not only provides reliable support but also gives the backyard a cleaner, more polished look.
Why Homeowners Choose Stone Over Cross Ties
Switching to stone offers benefits that go beyond appearances:
-
Longer lifespan – Stone won’t rot or warp over time
-
Low maintenance – No need for regular treatments
-
Stronger support – Protects against erosion and soil movement
-
Added property value – Improves curb appeal and resale potential
