Retaining Walls
Built for both aesthetic and necessity, retaining walls deserve as much attention as any other external structure. A prominent feature, retaining walls are a great way to define a space, surround a patio, or enhance a water feature. Whether built for functionality or aesthetic appeal, retaining walls suit many purposes. At Frontline Fencing, we believe all structures on your property should be built with both beauty and purpose in mind. So, whether you want to create a vertical garden to save space or need to hold back water or earth in a given area, we have the creative solutions you need.




Options for Retaining Walls
There is a wide variety of materials and styles to choose from when constructing a retaining wall. Do you want a multi-level terrace, edging for your flower bed, or stairs for a vertical garden? Does the architecture of your property better suit a natural, organic look or a more modern, bold aesthetic? While materials such as cedar and stone can create natural, organic beauty, engineered materials such as vinyl, concrete, and segmental wall stones can add sharp lines and modern appeal.
