Retaining Wall Installation in Tampa

Grade Support, Raised Planting Areas and Seating Walls

Green Roots builds retaining and landscape walls in Tampa for properties that need grade support, raised planting areas, seating or stronger definition between outdoor spaces. Each wall is planned around the site, base preparation, drainage, elevations and surrounding hardscape.

Walls Can Support and Define the Landscape

  • Landscape retaining walls
  • Raised planting areas
  • Garden walls
  • Seating walls
  • Grade transitions
  • Block wall systems
  • Drainage behind walls
  • Coordination with pavers

Base Preparation and Drainage

A retaining wall depends on the foundation below it and the way water is managed behind it. We plan excavation, compacted base, wall alignment and drainage around the site conditions.

Drainage is considered before nearby sod, planting or pavers are completed.

Coordinating Walls With Pavers and Planting

Retaining and seating walls can define planting areas, frame patios and manage changes in elevation. Block style, color and layout should coordinate with the home and surrounding hardscape.

How It Fits Together

Hardscape as Part of the Landscape

Pavers, turf and walls work best when base preparation, drainage, irrigation and planting are coordinated around them.
