Types of Walls We Build

Retaining Walls

Retaining walls are ideal for holding back soil on slopes, creating level spaces for landscaping, and preventing erosion. We build retaining walls that are both functional and attractive, using materials like:

  • Cinder block (CMU)
  • Concrete
  • Natural stone
  • Decorative block systems
  • Timber (optional based on site needs)

Our retaining walls are perfect for:

  • Sloped yards or hillside properties
  • Erosion control and flood prevention
  • Outdoor patios and garden tiers
  • Creating more usable space on your lot

Cinder Block Walls (CMU Walls)

Cinder block walls are a versatile and budget-friendly solution for both structural and decorative purposes. We design and construct cinder block walls for:

  • Property boundaries and fencing
  • Raised planters and garden beds
  • Privacy screens
  • Sound barriers
  • Side yard or alley separation

With options to plaster, paint, or add decorative finishes, these walls can blend seamlessly into your home’s design.

Decorative & Freestanding Walls

Looking to enhance your outdoor living space or improve curb appeal? We also build decorative walls and freestanding partitions that elevate your landscaping. These include:

  • Seat walls for patios
  • Garden edging walls
  • Courtyard and entry walls
  • Custom masonry elements for walkways

Our Wall Building Process

At Solves All Engineering, we take pride in providing turnkey wall solutions—from concept to completion. Here’s how we do it:

  1. Site Assessment
    We visit your property to evaluate slope, soil, drainage, and structural needs. We’ll take precise measurements and discuss your vision, whether it’s structural support or aesthetic enhancement.
  2. Engineering & Design
    Based on your property’s unique layout and challenges, we develop a custom-engineered plan to ensure the wall performs as intended—whether it’s holding back tons of soil or simply defining space.
  3. Permitting & Preparation
    We handle local permitting requirements (if needed) and begin preparing the site, including excavation, drainage considerations, and setting a strong foundation.
  4. Construction
    Our skilled team builds your wall with precision and care, using quality materials and proven methods. We also incorporate drainage behind retaining walls to reduce hydrostatic pressure and prevent future issues.
  5. Final Walkthrough & Clean-up
    Before we leave, we do a thorough inspection with you and make sure everything is clean, safe, and built to last.

Solving More Than Just Slopes

Retaining walls and block walls are often part of larger drainage or soil stabilization issues, and we’re experts at handling those too. In fact, most of our projects involve more than one challenge—drainage, flooding, erosion, and structural shifting—and we’re equipped to solve them all under one roof.

If your yard is suffering from water damage or hillside instability, we may also recommend:

  • French drains or surface drainage
  • Sump pumps or waterproofing
  • Soil movement solutions

Our ability to address multiple issues makes us a one-stop solution for East Bay homeowners.
