Retaining Wall Contractor

New Jersey

Structural Walls Built to Hold Their Ground

A retaining wall that isn’t engineered properly doesn’t just look bad when it fails, it can damage the property behind or below it. All American Asphalt builds retaining walls from small landscape walls to structural walls managing significant grade changes.

Every retaining wall is built with proper drainage behind the wall and a base sized for the wall’s height and the load it needs to hold back. Written estimates are provided before any work begins.

What Points to a Retaining Wall Problem:

  • Soil is visibly eroding on a sloped section of the yard
  • A grade change is limiting how you can use part of the property
  • An existing wall is leaning, bulging, or cracking
  • Water drainage issues are affecting a slope near your home
  • You're planning a landscaping project involving elevation changes
  • Neighboring construction has affected your property's grade

What a Properly Engineered Wall Protects:

A well-engineered retaining wall solves grade problems permanently instead of becoming a recurring maintenance issue.

  • Prevents Erosion: A properly built wall stops soil from washing away on sloped properties.
  • Creates Usable Space: Retaining walls turn sloped, unusable areas into flat, functional space.
  • Long-Term Stability: Proper drainage and base work prevent the leaning and failure common in DIY walls.
  • Protects Property Value: Structural walls done right protect the property behind and below them.
