Retaining Wall Block Specialists Serving Everett, Washington
Everett homeowners choose New Life Rockeries for retaining wall block installations that combine structural performance with lasting good looks. We've been installing block retaining wall systems across Everett and the surrounding communities since 1975, and we understand which systems perform best in Washington's wet climate and challenging soil conditions.
Block retaining walls are one of the most versatile solutions for Everett properties. Whether you need a low decorative border wall, a mid-height terrace wall, or a structural wall holding back a significant slope, there is a block system engineered for your specific application. We work with all major manufacturers — Allan Block, Versa-Lok, Redi-Rock, and concrete masonry units — and will recommend the right system for your site conditions and budget.
Every Everett block retaining wall installation includes proper base preparation, drainage aggregate behind the wall, and compacted backfill. These details are what separate a wall that lasts 50 years from one that fails in five. We provide a detailed written estimate before any work begins and never ask for payment until the job is done to your satisfaction.
Our crews are licensed, bonded, and insured in Washington State. We handle everything from permits to final cleanup.
Concrete block retaining wall systems are a popular choice for Everett's bluff and hillside neighborhoods — they provide the engineered reliability that Everett's steep slopes demand, with the textured, residential appearance that homeowners prefer over plain concrete. New Life Rockeries has been installing block retaining wall systems in Everett since the products were introduced in the 1980s.
Every block wall we build in Everett includes a gravel drainage column, a perforated drain pipe at the footing, and a daylight drain. Everett's glacial till soils generate significant hydrostatic pressure during the wet season, and a block wall without proper drainage will fail prematurely.
Everett's Building Department requires permits for block retaining walls over 4 feet in height. Walls in geologically hazardous areas require additional review. We manage the permit process on your behalf.
We install Allan Block, Versa-Lok, Anchor, and other major block systems in Everett, selecting the product based on the required wall height, the aesthetic preferences of the homeowner, and the specific engineering requirements of the site.

What We Build

Allan Block Systems

Versa-Lok pinned block systems for Everett homeowners who want a strong, flexible design. The pinless connection system allows for curves, corners, and complex geometries that other systems cannot achieve.

Redi-Rock Large Block Walls
Redi-Rock large-format concrete block walls for Everett commercial and high-load residential applications. The massive block size means faster installation and exceptional structural performance on challenging sites.

Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) Walls
Standard concrete block (CMU) walls for Everett applications requiring a cost-effective structural solution. Can be left exposed, stuccoed, or faced with stone veneer for a finished appearance.

Drainage Systems
Proper drainage is the single most important factor in retaining wall longevity. Every Everett block wall installation includes drainage aggregate, filter fabric, and weep holes to prevent hydrostatic pressure buildup.

Tiered Block Wall Systems
Multi-tiered block retaining wall systems for Everett hillsides. Stepping walls up a slope with setback between tiers is often the most structurally sound and cost-effective approach for heights over 6 feet.

"We hired New Life Rockeries to install a retaining wall across the front property line of our home including steps leading up to the level of the yard. The team was very professional from the start and communicated very clearly in every step of the process. The work was done quickly and on budget. Could not be happier."
"They replaced our uneven concrete with a paver patio and added a small step to the back door. Night and day difference. No upsell and fair price. Easy 5 stars."
