All of the following pictures are from our projects.
This pole barn pad looks fantastic and will last forever. We graded, added fill and leveled an area for a 40x40 Pole Barn. Downspout drains were pre-installed for the new build. (Buff Color Pictured)
New construction retention wall with three tiers of Verti‑Block. We can custom design a solution to suit almost any requirement. (Buff Color Pictured)
We designed and built this beautiful retaining wall with steps and an exposed aggregate concrete patio. It looks amazing in person. (Buff Color Pictured)
We can provide design models to help you visualize your solution. If you have an existing survey contour drawing we can easily model the surrounding terrain. This image is the model for the previous lakefront patio shown.
We were asked to design and build this heavy duty solution along the Flint River to shore up a cemetery riverbank erosion problem. (Natural Color Pictured)
We demolished an aging rotten timber wall with ugly right angle sections that was over twelve feet in elevation. The new Verti-Block wall we installed had a subtle sweeping curve that surpassed our client's expectations. Their friends said the new space looks like a resort! (Natural Color Pictured)
This project transformed an estate area into a grand outdoor event space. Along with building the retaining walls, we did a lot of grading, added a cul-de-sac and a parking area also. There are no limits for your imagination! (Buff Color Pictured)
This project included a level pad and retaining wall for a hillside shed. The versatility of Verti-Block makes quick and long lasting work for many applications. (Buff Color Pictured)
Every Verti‑Block wall can have an integrated drain under the first course which will eliminate major wall failures due to freezing and thawing. The hollow block walls are filled with crushed stone which allows excess water to easily drain. (Natural Color Pictured)
We can build a long lasting retaining wall that looks attractive and will not provide nooks and crannies for chipmunks and woodchucks. Verti‑Block is an interlocking design and each standard block weighs 1700 lbs! (Buff Color Pictured)
Matching attractive steps are part of the Verti‑Block System. These steps are standard tread height and add function and beauty to your landscape. Steps are available in 4' and 6' widths. We set the steps on the same bed of crushed stone. (Buff Color Pictured)
Retaining wall problems are solved once and for all. Walkout basement wall and drainage issues are permanently fixed with resloping of terrain along with integrated french drains. We can integrate with your existing drains or replace with new drains. You have options! (Buff Color Pictured)
Quick solution to a long standing problem. This client had a boulder wall that was continuously failing near his deck. We replaced the wall, added steps and repaired a lingering septic line issue while we were there. (Buff Color Pictured)
We installed this 70' long wall to replace a rotten timber wall that was supporting a septic field. Vastly improved the view as well. Click here to see a Monster Engineered Septic Wall that we built. (Natural Color Pictured)
We demolished a hodge podge collection of timber, boulders, steel fenceposts and sagging wooden steps. The new install was a beautiful sweeping Verti-Block wall that the owners are ecstatic about. (Buff Color Pictured)
This was a tricky project. An old cinder block wall was crumbling and threatening to collapse the car port. We were able to squeeze in a Verti-Block wall that solved the problem and greatly improved the view at this lakefront home. (Buff Color Pictured)
We replaced a pair of rotting, poorly installed 4x4 timber retaining walls with these two 30' walls. We also regraded and seeded the back yard. The owner was beyond satisfied with the results! (Buff Color Pictured)
This project entailed solving several issues. We replaced a failing pressure treated timber wall and rotting steps, rerouted rainwater to a large catch basin, re-graded the back yard and repaired sprinklers. We also planted trees, shrubs and installed sod. (Buff Color Pictured)
We squeezed new walls, deck and a terrace into this 45' wide lot. The project entailed removal of rotted timber walls and digging several large stumps. What a great way to add function and value to a small lake property!(Buff Color Pictured)
This 80' long beauty is exactly what this beachfront needed! Look closely at the picturer and you can see the structural difference of stone walls next to Verti-Block. The blocks are available in natural concrete (pictured here) and buff color. Special corner blocks and half blocks allow for a cohesive layout. Blocks can also be stained for a unique custom look.

A Verti‑Block retaining wall is the last retaining wall you will need. Designed and built to last a lifetime. No more rotting and sagging timber walls, no more loose boulder walls, no more washed out ledgestone slab walls and chipmunk havens! A Verti-Block retention wall is an investment that will improve the appearance, function and value of your property.
Verti‑Block is excellent for walk-out basements and taller than average situations. Walls taller than 48" require a building permit and we are a licensed builder which means we will handle necessary permits.
