Listed for homeowners in and around Boston, MA, these 24 companies build and rebuild retaining walls. Wall types, materials and hours are what each company publishes for itself, and the ratings and quoted lines are drawn from public reviews.

Area overview: Boston, MA

Of the 24 companies we list here, 19 are in Boston itself and 5 come from Woburn (2, 12 mi), East Boston (1, 5 mi) and Newton (1, 6 mi). The companies on this page are rated from 4.2 to 5.0 across 349 reviews; 2 have 50 or more reviews and 22 are rated 4.5 or higher. When customers rate these companies on specific qualities, they most often praise professionalism (96%), responsiveness (89%) and quality (85%). The topics that come up most in reviews of the companies on this page are "price", "communication" and "crew". 2 are open around the clock; 15 are open on Saturdays and 5 on Sundays. 4 show a license on their websites and 8 have a BBB rating of A or A+. Domain records put 10 websites of the companies on this page at ten or more years old; the oldest dates from 1999. 2 offer emergency call-outs; 1 offers financing or payment plans; 11 give free estimates; 8 are family- or locally-owned and 1 lists coupons or special offers. We count these figures across the companies on this page; distances are straight-line, and hours and prices change, so confirm the details with the company before you book.

Do these companies show photos of finished walls?

A website link sits on 22 of the 24 wall builders here. A photograph of a finished wall tells you very little, because everything that fails is behind the face. Look for pictures taken mid-build instead: the base trench, the drainage stone going in, the grid rolled out between courses. A company that photographs that stage is proud of the right part.
