Stone retaining walls built for Georgia yards
A retaining wall does two jobs. It holds back soil on a sloped yard, and it shapes the space so you can actually use it. We design and install natural stone and stacked stone walls, garden walls and seating walls for homes in Marietta, Roswell, Atlanta and Johns Creek.
We handle the whole project: design, excavation, base prep, wall build and the landscaping around it. If your slope also brings water problems, we can plan drainage and planting into the same job.
- Natural stacked stone and fieldstone retaining walls
- Low garden walls and raised planting beds
- Seating walls around patios and fire pits
- Belgard paver and block wall options
- Terraced walls for steep or sloped yards
- Steps and stone walkways tied into the wall
- Landscape lighting to highlight stone walls at night
- Plantings, mulch and pine straw to finish the area

“As a veteran myself, I appreciated working with a veteran-owned business. The team was knowledgeable, respectful, and did beautiful work on our retaining wall and landscape design. Our yard has never looked better!”
“It took us years to find Jim, and we are so glad we did! He and his crew did an amazing job, completing the stacked stone wall and landscaping project that my wife has been wanting to do for years. The work was done professionally, on time, and within budget. Jim demonstrated great patience and flexibility with us in dealing with all of the unknowns that accompany a project like ours. He had a can-do attitude and personable approach that set him apart from every other contractor we considered. Jim knows his stuff, treats people fairly, charges very reasonable prices, and over-delivers. Hard to ask for more than that! Call him; you will thank me.”
“Wow! I have worked with several landscape designers and companies over the years. Jim Higginbotham is the best! He and his team arrived on time every day. They are all hardworking, easy to communicate with, and clean up after themselves. I had some erosion and drainage problems in my backyard. I hired them to design and install a retaining wall and dry creek. It turned out beautifully. After they were here for a few days, I saw how detailed and precise they were, I also asked them to find and install several plants, remove a tree from the front of my house, and install pine straw and mulch. I am so pleased with the result. It was completed on time and for the reasonable price that was estimated. I would highly recommend Jim.”

Frequently asked questions
How much does a natural stone retaining wall cost?
Price depends on the length, height, stone you choose, site access and how much excavation and drainage work is needed. We visit your property and give you a clear written estimate before any work starts.
Do you serve my area?
We serve Marietta, GA and surrounding metro Atlanta communities within about a 20-mile radius, including Roswell, Atlanta and Johns Creek. Send your ZIP code and we will confirm.
What stone and materials can I choose from?
We build with natural stacked stone and fieldstone, and as a Belgard Authorized Contractor we also install premium Belgard block and paver wall products. We will show you options that fit your home and budget.
Can a wall fix my erosion or drainage problem?
A properly built retaining wall holds back soil on a slope, and we can design drainage and planting into the same project. We will look at how water moves through your yard during the site visit.
Can you do landscaping around the wall too?
Yes. We offer custom landscape plans, planting, walkways, patios, steps and landscape lighting, so the wall blends into the rest of your yard.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Higginbotham Design is licensed and insured, holds an A+ BBB rating, and is a family- and veteran-owned company with 35+ years of local experience.
