About Us
Our Story
Retaining Wall Guys is family owned and operated, built around a single focus: retaining walls and drainage, done right. We're not landscapers who occasionally pour a wall, and we're not a general contractor squeezing a wall in between other trades — walls and drainage are the whole business.
That focus means every job gets a crew that actually knows why base prep and drainage matter, not one learning it on your property. We handle excavation, concrete, material purchasing, segmental wall units, drainage systems, and geogrid soil reinforcement ourselves, so nothing about your wall gets outsourced to guesswork.
We're based in Rowlett and build across Dallas–Fort Worth and North Texas — for homeowners dealing with a failing slope and builders who need a wall system they don't have to think twice about.
Why Retaining Wall Guys
Retaining walls aren't something we occasionally build. They're what we specialize in. Most contractors — landscapers, general contractors, handymen — spread themselves across a dozen trades and treat a retaining wall as one more line item. We built Retaining Wall Guys around a single focus, so every project gets our full attention, full expertise, and full accountability.
Our team brings over two decades of combined experience in construction and concrete — residential and commercial — to every wall we build.
Walls over 4 feet get engineered drawings. We pull permits, work with structural engineers, and build to code — every time.
Most wall failures come from water. We design drainage into every wall system from day one — it's standard on every job, never an afterthought.
This is our business and our reputation. You get a real response within 24 hours and a crew that treats your project like it's our own.
Why RWG
A retaining wall is only as good as what it's built on.
Water management is part of the wall system — not an afterthought.
We coordinate engineering and permitting when project requirements call for it.
We focus on building retaining walls correctly rather than simply building the cheapest wall possible.
What We Do
Retaining walls are structural, not decorative. We treat them that way — engineering each one for soil conditions, load, water, and time.
Segmental retaining walls using Allan Block, Versa-Lok, or equivalent systems. Ideal for residential grades, commercial sites, and tiered lots.
Cast-in-place cantilever and gravity walls for high-load applications, commercial grades, and engineered structural requirements.
Flagstone, stamped concrete, natural stone veneer, brick, exposed aggregate — your wall's structure and finish, handled by one crew.
French drains, weep holes, and gravel backfill systems built into every wall — because most wall failures start with water.
From backyard grade changes to large-scale commercial retention — we bring the same level of precision and care to every project size.
Failing wall? We assess, diagnose, and rebuild right — not just patch. Full teardown and replacement or targeted structural repair.
No obligation — we'll walk your property and tell you what it actually needs.
