Retaining Wall Contractor in DFW

A failing retaining wall isn't just an eyesore — it's a structural problem that gets worse the longer it sits. Whether your existing wall has bowed, cracked, or started to lean, or you're building one from scratch to solve a grading or erosion problem, Midtex Services LLC has the experience to do it right. We've been building and replacing retaining walls for residential and commercial clients across the Dallas–Fort Worth metro for more than 30 years.

We build retaining walls for a wide range of applications, using materials and construction methods appropriate to the load, the height, and the site.

  • Poured concrete retaining walls

  • Concrete block retaining walls

  •  Retaining wall demolition and replacement

  • Drainage installation behind and beneath walls (French drains, weep holes, gravel backfill)

  • Tiered retaining wall systems for larger elevation changes

We assess each site individually and recommend the wall type and construction method that best fits the soil conditions, drainage, and load requirements of your specific project.

Pricing:

Retaining wall pricing depends on the height and length of the wall, the material specified, drainage requirements, and site access. We provide free quotes on every project. Call 972.880.9459 or request a quote online.

What to Expect:

1. Free quote and site assessment. We'll visit your property, evaluate the existing conditions (or the planned grade change), measure the wall run, and give you a clear, firm quote.

2. Demo and removal. If we're replacing an existing wall, we handle full demolition and material removal. Concrete and block debris are hauled off your property.

3. Excavation and footing. Every retaining wall starts below grade. We excavate to the proper depth, pour a concrete footing sized to the wall height and load, and allow it to cure before building up.

4. Wall construction. We form and pour poured concrete walls or set concrete block walls course by course, using rebar reinforcement at intervals appropriate to the wall height and soil pressure. Taller walls and walls holding back heavy soil loads require more reinforcement, and we don't shortcut it.

5. Drainage. Proper drainage behind a retaining wall is what determines whether it lasts 5 years or 30. We install drainage aggregate, filter fabric, and weep holes or French drain pipe as required by the site conditions. Hydrostatic pressure behind an undrained wall is the number one cause of premature retaining wall failure.

6. Backfill and grading. Once the wall is built and drainage is in place, we backfill with compacted material and grade the area above and below the wall to direct water properly.

7. Cleanup. We clean up the work site and leave your property clean when the job is done.
