Retaining Wall Builder Kansas City

Transform your outdoor space with expertly designed and constructed retaining walls by Hinkle Outdoor Living, enhancing both functionality and aesthetic appeal.

What are Retaining Walls?

Retaining walls are rigid structures designed to restrain soil to unnatural slopes, providing support for vertical or near-vertical grade changes. They are essential in preventing soil erosion, managing water runoff, and creating usable flat spaces on sloped terrains. Beyond their functional benefits, retaining walls can be aesthetically pleasing, adding depth and dimension to your landscape.

How Does Hinkle Outdoor Living Build Retaining Walls?

At Hinkle Outdoor Living, every retaining wall project begins with a thorough design consultation where we assess your specific needs and the natural contours of your property. Our designers work closely with you to create a customized plan that seamlessly integrates with your landscape while ensuring structural stability.

Once the design is finalized, we move into the engineering and permitting phase, where an architect reviews and refines the plans to meet all safety standards and local building regulations. This extra level of oversight guarantees a secure and lasting structure. During construction, our skilled technicians carefully execute the engineered designs, using high-quality materials and advanced techniques to enhance durability and longevity. Every step is handled with precision to ensure the final product is both functional and visually appealing.

Advantages of Building a Retaining Wall for Your Home

Erosion Control: Retaining walls effectively prevent soil erosion, especially in properties with significant slopes.
Increased Usable Space: By leveling areas of your yard, retaining walls create more functional outdoor spaces suitable for patios, gardens, or play areas.
Enhanced Aesthetics: A well-designed retaining wall adds visual interest and can serve as a focal point in your landscape design.
Improved Property Value: Functional and attractive outdoor features like retaining walls can boost the overall value of your property.

Mistakes Other Contractors Make

Not all contractors possess the expertise required for constructing durable retaining walls. Common mistakes include inadequate structural support, poor drainage solutions, and lack of proper engineering oversight. At Hinkle Outdoor Living, we mitigate these risks by involving architects in our planning process and adhering strictly to engineering best practices.

OUR APPROACH

We Streamline
Complex Processes

Design Discovery Call

Our process begins with a 30-minute Design Discovery Call. During this virtual meeting, our owner will discuss your project ideas, goals, and budget.

In-Home Design Meeting

If we’re a good fit for your project, we’ll set up an In-Home Design Meeting where our team will take exact measurements and elevations, and begin exploring your material preferences. Allot 1 hour for this phase of the process.

Design Review Call

Your outdoor living plan will take 5-7 business days to complete. From there, we’ll schedule a Design Review Call where the team will reveal your custom 3D rendering. We’ll go over your layout, confirm materials, and make revisions until we’ve successfully captured your vision. This call typically lasts an hour.

Design Presentation Call

The final step is a Design Presentation Call. During this 45-60 minute Zoom meeting, the team will present the budgetary numbers for your design. If you accept the proposal, you can make a small deposit to be added to the construction queue!

This Could Be You

Delighting customers with the ultimate backyard escape for 15+ years.

Working with Hinkle Hardscapes was very good. Everybody was very responsive. We asked quite a few questions, but everyone always had the right answers for us, if they didn’t know they’ll go get the answers and bring it back to us.

Anita Glenn

We had a couple of hiccups with some measurements that we didn’t get quite right for the hot tub and they had to make some changes the day that they were taking everything out. And there were no problems, they had it fixed in like 15 minutes. Everything got taken care of. Hinkle hardscapes did a great job and I would suggest them to anybody!

I was drawn to Hinkle Hardscapes. You know, when you’re spending a lot of money, sometimes, even if you are spending a few extra dollars, you know it’s gonna be done right and it’s gonna be done professional. And it helps make the process and you know that the money that you’re spending is well worth it.

John and Heather

We were six to eight weeks out when we started and it’s worth it. They know what they’re doing. Don’t go with the easy quick options, this is something that’s worth the time and money and everything else you put in this.
