Retaining Walls
A good retaining wall does more than hold back dirt. It can turn a slope into a patio. Add structure to a garden bed. Create built-in seating. Or simply make your yard feel more connected and complete.

-
Backyard renovation costs vary based on size, materials, site conditions, and scope. In the Rochester area, most full backyard renovations typically range from $40,000 to $150,000+.
Smaller projects like patios or landscape upgrades can be less, while larger, multi-feature spaces fall toward the higher end.
We help clients understand realistic budgets early so there are no surprises later.
-
Ideally, you should start planning 3–12 months before you want construction to begin.
Design, budgeting, material selections, and scheduling all take time—especially for custom projects. Planning early also gives you more flexibility and ensures your project fits your goals, your property, and your timeline, rather than rushing decisions during peak season.
