Retaining walls are more than just visually appealing landscape features—they're functional solutions to common outdoor challenges. Whether you’re dealing with sloped land, poor drainage, or just want to elevate your outdoor design, retaining walls provide both beauty and structure. At Broadstone Landscape, we design and install custom retaining walls across the DFW area that enhance outdoor living and property value.

1. Prevents Soil Erosion

One of the primary functions of a retaining wall is to prevent erosion. In sloped or uneven yards, rainwater can quickly wash away soil, affecting plants, walkways, and foundations. A professionally installed retaining wall holds back soil, stabilizes the land, and protects your property from damage—especially in areas prone to heavy rain or runoff.

2. Adds Usable Space to Sloped Yards

Got a sloped backyard that’s difficult to landscape or use? Retaining walls can create flat, usable areas by tiering the slope. These new levels can be transformed into garden beds, patios, or play areas, turning otherwise wasted space into beautiful and functional zones.

3. Enhances Curb Appeal

A well-designed retaining wall adds character and structure to your yard. With materials like stone, concrete, or block, your wall can complement the rest of your landscape features. It also adds depth and elevation changes that make your landscape more dynamic and visually appealing.

4. Improves Drainage

Incorporating a retaining wall into your landscape plan can improve drainage and direct water away from your foundation or sensitive garden areas. When combined with custom drainage solutions, it ensures proper water flow while maintaining the health of your outdoor space.

5. Increases Property Value

Investing in landscape features like retaining walls not only enhances aesthetics but also increases the value of your home. Potential buyers appreciate properties with professionally designed and structurally sound outdoor features that make the space more usable and low-maintenance.
