South Austin Landscaping & Construction provides professional retaining wall installation for homeowners across Austin and nearby communities. We build structural retaining walls designed to manage elevation changes, control erosion, and stabilize outdoor spaces not decorative walls that fail over time.
Whether your property requires grade correction, slope support, or soil retention, our team focuses on proper engineering, solid foundations, and long term performance.

We install residential retaining wall systems built for durability and function, including:
• Segmental block retaining walls
• Concrete retaining walls
• Reinforced retaining walls
• Grade correction and slope stabilization
• Retaining walls integrated with drainage systems
• Structural walls for elevation changes and erosion control
Each wall is designed and installed based on site conditions, soil pressure, drainage needs, and wall height requirements.

A retaining wall is a load bearing structure, not a landscaping accessory. When built incorrectly, walls can lean, crack, or fail.
Our installation process includes:
• Proper excavation and base preparation
• Correct wall depth and reinforcement
• Integrated drainage to relieve hydrostatic pressure
• Secure backfill and compaction
• Clean alignment and finished appearance
We don’t cut corners or rush wall construction. Our goal is a retaining wall that functions correctly and holds up over time.

We install retaining walls for:
