What Are Retaining Walls and Why Do They Matter?
Retaining walls help control soil, shape landscapes, and support outdoor spaces. If your yard has slopes or elevation changes, retaining walls can prevent erosion, stop water damage, and add usable space.
At Northscapes Inc, we offer custom retaining wall builds using high-quality materials, like stone, block, or engineered wall systems. We’ve designed gravity walls, segmental walls, and drainage-integrated designs to suit all kinds of properties in Cranston.
If you live near Pawtuxet Village or in the Oaklawn neighborhood, you’ve likely seen our work in action—neatly tiered walls that hold up soil while complementing your landscaping. We also build garden bed walls that double as decorative features.
Every wall we build is backed by smart planning and solid craftsmanship. We handle permitting, excavation, drainage, and even post-installation checks.


Why a Retaining Wall Can Be a Game-Changer

Flattens slopes into level terraces, creating more functional outdoor living areas.
Enhances curb appeal and value with sleek, functional retaining wall designs.
