Segmental (Block) Retaining Walls, Portland Oregon

Segmental retaining walls are walls made of pre-formed concrete blocks. When most people think of these kind of retaining walls, they envision the basic concrete wall blocks you can get at stores like Home Depot. But in reality, that’s just one type of retaining wall block of the hundreds that are available these days. There are a wide variety of wall blocks to choose from.

There are two main reasons you’d chose this variety of retaining wall over a rock wall. First, to create a formal look. If you have a paver patio or other concrete structures in your landscape or just want to have a more contemporary, formal look then this kind of wall can complement the rest of your landscape or home. Second, you’d want to consider a segmental retaining wall if structural integrity is critical. Rock walls can fail or move. But a properly built segmental retaining wall should never fail. So if it’s important that the wall never fail because of what it’s retaining, then this variety of wall would be the way to go.

The first thing you ought to consider when constructing a segmental retaining wall is construction procedures and base preparation. A wall built quickly and cheaply is probably not a wall that will last. A retaining wall is a functional feature of your landscape that, when constructed well, can be a thing of beauty. However, a poorly built wall will quickly become an eye sore, even if the best materials have been used.

The most expensive retaining wall is the one you have to pay for twice!

At Lewis Landscape Services, we believe strongly in doing things right the first time. There are no shortcuts accepted when we construct a wall. We know that base preparation is key to the final product and throughout the building phase, all rules of engineering will be closely followed. Our installers are Certified Level II Wall Builders. The owner, Project Managers, Construction Foreman, as well as the other installers, are trained and experienced to know exactly how to construct your retaining wall so that it lasts forever.

We also build rock walls.

We contracted with Lewis Landscape Services to build a retaining wall in our front yard, street facing. We were pleased with every step of the way — from initial meeting and planning to final delivered product. It is gorgeous and well constructed! Don Seymour was our project manager. When he first came out to meet with us and discuss the project, he listened intently to our ideas and offered some great suggestions. He was professional, friendly and maintained great communication throughout the project. The team who came out to build the wall were fantastic. They worked hard and were utmost efficient. When we have another project, we’ll reach out to Lewis Landscape Services.

Lewis Landscape Services did an outstanding job constructing steps down the steep slope beside our house. The steps needed to follow a path that curved between retaining walls which added complexity to the project. Everyone I dealt with was punctual, friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The crew worked very hard and knew what they were doing. The steps turned out great and included all the specifics I had requested.

We’ve had Jim Lewis come by and help us with the yards at two homes over 13 years now. Both involved deconstruction and renovation. We usually have tentative ideas that Jim helps us flesh out and improve. Then the crew arrives and magic occurs. We’ve also had Lewis Landscape Services come do the annual maintenance on our irrigation. That saves us headaches and the cost of replacing dead plants next year. The office staff is kind; the crews are great; and for Jim it’s personal. It’s your home and he wants it to be right for you.

I hired Lewis Landscape after receiving a well presented estimate accompanied by recent project photos. The price was fair and the quality met my expectations. My neighbors all commented on the craftsmanship. The paver patio and walkway are now the focal point of my home. Thanks for a job well done.

Very impressed with the work of Lewis Landscape and Brad, our project manager. We just purchased a new home in NW Portland and it needed full landscaping in the back yard. Brad and his hard-working team installed a new retaining wall and patio above that, new grass, new sprinklers, a new cedar fence for around the edge of the yard and new plants and trees. We now have one of the best looking yards on the block and they’re now doing our neighbors yard as well. Glad to recommend these guys.
