Retaining Walls
Walls Built for Strength, Function, and Beauty
Add structure and style to your outdoor space with a custom retaining wall. Our team designs and installs walls that provide stability, prevent erosion, and create amazing visual appeal.
The Foundation of a Lasting Landscape
Retaining walls do much more than hold back soil. They create structure, elevate design, and unlock the full potential of your outside space. At Bahler Brothers, we build retaining walls that blend durability and craftsmanship, all designed to withstand Connecticut’s freeze-thaw cycles.
From structural walls, tiered design, or a decorative garden wall, we do it all and make sure it complements your home’s architecture and enhances your living space.
Why Choose a Stone Retaining Wall?
Retaining walls provide structural support that prevents erosion and helps manage water flow on uneven terrain. By ensuring that the proper drainage is taken into account, we can build retaining walls of any size that will last for decades.
Our walls aren’t just functional though. They add texture and definition to your landscape, creating planting areas, sitting walls, and transitions between levels.

A retaining wall is only as strong as the process that’s behind it. In this video, we take you through a step-by-step on how we approach a retaining wall project, from excavation and draining, to Geogrid reinforcement, and building the wall itself.

I had them design and build a place for my swim spa. From start to finish, each phase of the project was amazing. Jen in design went to great detail to ensure I knew every detail. The team of guys that came out to build my space was amazing and they all took the time to explain each step of what was being built. I now have a beautiful outdoor space that I can enjoy and everyone that sees the work are blown away. Thank you Josh and team for all you did.
The team at Bahler Brothers did an absolutely amazing job on our water feature. They are true professionals in every sense of the word. They are extremely prompt, friendly and talented, from initial phone contact until completion, their #1 concern is a happy client .We would highly recommend them to anyone in need of landscaping, water features or hard scapes.
The service we received was outstanding--fast, professional, and effective. We needed oak tannin stains removed from our patio after a tree fell on our house. A crew was at our house within a day and was able to clean the pavers with less work than was originally quoted. Not only was the patio restored beautifully, but we also received excellent information about how to care for our patio to prevent problems in the future. The price was adjusted as well to reflect the fact that a simpler approach was sufficient to get the job done. We are happy with the entire experience and would recommend this company to anyone who needs restoration work on their patio.
From start to finish, every step of the process to replace our front steps was executed flawlessly by Bahler Brothers. Initially George helped guide us to the perfect design and materials. When the time came to begin the project we were informed when each step would take place- and they were always at our house when they said they’d be. Lloyd was careful to place mats in our driveway to protect it as he excavated the area. As soon as that portion was done Junior, Andrew, and Angel began work on the steps and walkway. I was so impressed with how detailed and meticulous they were. Each step, each paver was placed exactly where it should be. They made double and triple sure of it! When Byron and Ryan in the landscaping division came to put our plantings back they were careful to do it exactly as it was before - even adding new stone so the plantings were completely covered as before. Josh called to make sure we were happy - which we were! George also came one last time to make sure the job was done to our satisfaction. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend Bahler Brothers to anyone who needed a project done and done right! We are now waiting for the railing vendor to install the railing. Once that is done our step project will be complete.
Frequently Asked Questions About Retaining Wall Installations
How long do retaining walls last?
When properly built, retaining walls can last 30 to 50 years or more. Our base systems and high-quality materials ensure lasting strength through harsh winters and heavy rainfall throughout Connecticut and Massachusetts.
Do retaining walls require drainage?
Yes. Proper drainage is critical. We install perforated drain pipes and gravel backfill to prevent hydrostatic pressure, which can cause walls to fail over time.
Can a retaining wall also be decorative?
Absolutely! Many of our clients choose to integrate retaining walls into their outdoor living design, like raised patios and garden beds, sitting walls, or other accent features that add beauty as well as structure.
Do you replace or repair existing retaining walls?
Yes, we can inspect your current wall to determine if it can be repaired or needs to be rebuilt. We recommend reaching out to our design team with more information about your space.
