Service Details

At Burdick Land Solutions, we build boulder retaining walls that do more than hold back soil. They protect your property from erosion, create usable space, improve drainage, and give your landscape a strong, natural look that fits the land. These walls are a smart choice for sloped yards, failing banks, washout areas, driveway edges, and places where you need both structure and long-term durability.

Our process starts with a close look at the grade, soil conditions, water flow, access, and the purpose of the wall. Every site is different. Some projects need a low landscape retaining wall to shape planting beds or terrace a backyard. Others need a heavy-duty boulder wall to stabilize a hillside or support a larger change in elevation. We plan the wall layout, base preparation, boulder size, and drainage needs so the finished wall performs well and looks clean from every angle.

Boulder retaining walls are popular because they are tough, low-maintenance, and naturally attractive. Large stone holds up well against weather, runoff, and ground pressure when installed correctly. We use proper excavation, base work, placement techniques, and backfill methods to help the wall stay stable over time. Drainage is also a key part of the job. Without the right water management, even a strong wall can have problems, so we build with long-term performance in mind.

We can install walls for slope stabilization, erosion control, landscape grading, terracing, property line definition, and support around driveways, paths, and outdoor living areas. If your yard has steep sections, pooling water, or soil movement, a boulder wall can be part of a larger land management solution that makes the space safer and easier to use. We also pay attention to how the wall blends into the rest of the property so it feels natural, not out of place.

As a family-run, owner-operated company, we believe in straightforward pricing and dependable work. We show up, communicate clearly, and build walls the right way.

Our Boulder Retaining Wall Process

At Burdick Land Solutions, we keep boulder retaining wall projects simple, clear, and built to last. From the first site visit to the final cleanup, we focus on drainage, stability, and straightforward communication so you know exactly what to expect.

On-Site Review and Wall Design

01

We walk the slope with you, check grade changes, drainage, access, and soil conditions, then recommend the right boulder retaining wall layout for strength and appearance. You get a clear estimate, realistic timeline, and honest guidance on what your property needs.

Site Prep and Base Installation

02

Before any boulders are set, we prepare the footprint, excavate to proper depth, and build a compacted base that supports long-term wall stability. We also plan drainage behind the wall to help prevent washouts, pressure buildup, and costly future movement.

Boulder Placement and Final Walkthrough

03

We place and lock each boulder carefully for a natural look, proper setback, and dependable structural support, then backfill and finish the surrounding area. After cleanup, we walk the project with you to confirm the wall is solid, the site looks clean, and you are ready to enjoy the result.

These guys are great! We had culverts that were clogged and our creek was overflowing. They made sure to fit us in to their busy schedule right away before the big storms over the weekend, and prevented more flooding for us. Thank you!

They moved and leveled a storage building and a couple chicken coops for us and did a great job. They communicated well and showed up when they said they would. They even disposed of some old coops for us that wasn’t even part of the job. Highly recommend and will use them again!
