Retaining walls do more than hold back soil, they shape the landscape, prevent erosion, and add structure and beauty to your property. At Milliken Corporation, our team specializes in dry stack retaining walls, a durable and timeless solution that blends engineering strength with natural aesthetics.
Serving Middle Tennessee, we bring the same level of craftsmanship and precision to our retaining walls that we bring to every concrete, masonry, and drainage project we complete.
What Is a Dry Stack Retaining Wall?
A dry stack retaining wall is built using carefully placed stone or block (without mortar), relying on precise stacking and gravity to create a strong, interlocking structure. The result? A natural look with outstanding performance.
Benefits include:
-
Durability: Properly built dry stack walls can last for decades with minimal maintenance.
-
Drainage Efficiency: The gaps between stones allow water to flow naturally, reducing pressure and preventing cracking.
-
Natural Appearance: Perfect for landscapes, driveways, and outdoor living spaces.
-
Flexibility: Works beautifully with uneven terrain or curved designs.
