Curb appeal walls that hold front slopes, frame walkways and driveways and make the first view of your home look finished.
The front of your home is what everyone sees first. A front yard retaining wall can fix an eroding slope, flatten a lawn, frame the walkway and give the home a stronger, more finished presence. Homeowners in Nashville use front walls to solve real grade problems and to improve curb appeal in the same project.
We begin with a Free Estimate and a look at the street view, the slope, utilities, drainage and your home's style. We select a wall material that suits the house, from natural stone to segmental block or brick, lay out gentle lines or curves and build on a compacted base with proper drainage behind the wall. We add caps, lighting, planting beds and steps where they help, and we check local rules for walls near sidewalks, easements and property lines. Front walls are seen every day, so small details matter. We pay attention to corners, cap overhangs, joint lines and how the wall meets the walkway, mailbox and driveway. If you have mature trees, we plan the wall to protect roots as much as possible. Planting beds along the top and base soften the edge and tie the wall into the rest of your landscape. When the work is done, you should have a front yard that looks planned from the street.
Material, color and shape are chosen to fit the architecture and the street.
We check property lines, easements and utilities before digging.
Walls and steps are built to handle foot traffic, snow and rain.
Planting beds, lighting and edging are planned along with the wall.
