Retaining Walls We Have Built in Highland Village
Real Highland Village properties, not stock photography.
Retaining Wall Work We Do in Highland Village
Greenbelt and creek lots
Where the lot carries the grade change down to open space, the wall at the bottom is doing real work.
Multi-tier systems
Two or three shorter walls stepped up a slope, usually better structurally and better to look at.
HOA-compliant stonework
Material and finish chosen to pass architectural review the first time.
Drainage-led design
Where the wall is really solving a water problem, we design for that first.
What Highland Village Ground Does to a Wall
Slope with a view
Lots stepping down toward the lake carry genuine fall. Tiered walls usually serve better than one tall run.
Sand on clay
Cross Timbers soil passes water down to the clay and stops. That interface is the load on your wall.
Storm runoff
Fast water on a slope undercuts from below. The drainage design matters more than the stone.

Highland Village Retaining Wall Questions
Do I need a permit for a retaining wall in Highland Village?
It depends on the height of the wall and where it sits on your lot. Across DFW municipalities a wall over about four feet generally requires a permit and engineering, and lower walls often do not. We confirm what Highland Village asks for on your specific wall and make the submittal ourselves. It is inside the quoted price, not billed on top of it.
How much does a retaining wall cost in Highland Village?
Length, height, the stone you choose, how equipment reaches the site and whether a permit is needed all move the number. Most residential walls across Denton County land between a few thousand dollars and the low five figures. Nathan writes you a fixed figure for your wall after seeing it, not a range, and that figure is what you pay.
Why do retaining walls fail in Highland Village?
Water, nearly every time. The ground here is Cross Timbers sand sitting on clay, so water runs through the top layer and stops dead at the layer beneath. That trapped water is what loads a wall from behind, and it is why drainage matters more here than stone selection does. Being this close to Lake Lewisville does not change the ground under your yard either. The walls here are newer, which does not make them immune. A newer wall with no drainage behind it fails the same way an old one does, just later.
Can you replace a rotting timber or cross-tie wall in Highland Village?
Yes, and it is among the most common jobs we take on. Replacing a tie wall while it is still standing costs meaningfully less than clearing a collapsed one along with the soil that came down with it, and it lets us build the drainage in properly rather than working around a failure.
Do you work in the areas around Highland Village?
Yes. We cover Highland Village and the communities next to it, including Flower Mound, Corinth and Double Oak, and Nathan travels to the site himself for both the quote and the build. If you are not sure whether you are inside the area, call and ask rather than guessing.
Highland Village and the Communities Around It
We build and replace retaining walls throughout Highland Village and the surrounding Denton County area, and Nathan travels to the site himself for the quote and the work.
Need a pool taken out rather than a wall built? That is a different job with different equipment, and it has its own page.
