Landscapes that incorporate hardscape features can appear one-dimensional and flat with nothing to separate the different spaces.  Incorporating retaining walls into your outdoor living spaces adds a vertical element and a degree of separation to further distinguish the spaces from each other.  You can use retaining walls to enclose patios and outdoor kitchens and border walkways, driveways, and gardens.

Pavestone Brick Paving, Inc. is a retaining wall contractor that can design and build retaining walls in Des Plaines, IL, and the surrounding north and northwest Chicago suburbs.  We can help incorporate retaining walls into your landscape and outdoor living spaces and ensure that they blend seamlessly with your existing hardscape features.  As an authorized Unilock and Rochester contractor, we can offer a full range of products to help you create unique retaining walls.

Adding retaining walls can benefit your outdoor living spaces in the following ways:

• Incorporate vertical elements: The vertical nature of the retaining walls adds dimension and depth to your outdoor living spaces. The walls can also incorporate other vertical features such as pillars, seat walls, islands, lights, and more.
• Define spaces: Enclosing areas of your outdoor living spaces like patios, walkways, and outdoor kitchens with retaining walls creates a degree of separation to further define these spaces.
• Incorporate planters: You can add some green to your outdoor living spaces to soften up the textures by using retaining walls to raise planter beds.

Brick Retaining Wall Installation

Pavestone is a brick retaining wall contractor that can help design and install retaining walls built with Unilock brick pavers.  We offer a wide range of brick pavers in different styles, sizes, colors, and textures to create retaining walls that match the aesthetic of your other hardscape features.  These brick pavers lock together to create a sturdy structure and they are easy to maintain.

You can choose from classic brick pavers or more modern pavers available in a range of colors to create a unique retaining wall design.  You can also incorporate other features like pillars and lights to further enhance the appearance of the walls.  Our professionals will help you design your brick retaining walls and decide on pavers and other features to suit your preferences.

Stone Retaining Wall Installation

As a stone retaining wall contractor, Pavestone offers Unilock natural stone slabs that can be used to build retaining walls.  These stone slabs come from rock formations around the world, and they are available in many sizes, shapes, colors, and textures.  You can choose from a range of natural stones including granite, sandstone, bluestone, and limestone to create a rustic or bold aesthetic.

Choosing natural stone slabs for your retaining walls has the following benefits:

• Durability: Natural stone is highly durable and resistant to chips, cracks, and fading.
• Beauty: The natural stone slabs made from rock formations bring a real natural beauty to your retaining walls.
• Versatility: You can use natural stone slabs for your retaining walls as well as other hardscape features like patios, walkways, and pillars.
• Cost-effective: Certain types of natural stone are cheaper than other materials and they can last for years with little maintenance.

Retaining Wall Design

View Retaining Wall Galleries

If you have existing outdoor living spaces and hardscape features with no retaining walls, the design and placement of the walls is important to enhance these spaces.  Our experts will help with the design to make the best use of your retaining walls.

We can help with all elements of the design, including the placement of the walls, whether the walls should be straight or curved, the materials for your wall, and any other features to incorporate such as pillars and lights.  We will create a 3D model of the retaining wall in full color rendering so you can see what it will look like in your existing hardscape and perfect the design before we start the installation.
