Retaining walls can be used for a number of reasons, and they also enhance the aesthetic appeal of your property. The size and placement of a retaining wall help regulate water flow throughout your outdoors area, making it more functional and enjoyable.
At New Life Rockeries, we provide tailored retaining walls to fit difficult, specific landscapes and outdoor areas. Our professional crew has experience with different building techniques to ensure we deliver strong, durable retaining walls every time. We offer our certified services in Sammamish, Seattle, Everett, and throughout Snohomish and King Counties.

Sammamish Rock Walls

Our Sammamish builders are familiar with all types of retaining walls, and they can customize them to fit any landscape. We have vast experience working with often-chosen non-cemented options, as well as cemented options.
Our most popular and beautiful rocks come from local quarries. We are well-connected with all local quarries, so we can provide all colors and sizes necessary to match your preference. Because we know all the local quarries, New Life Rockeries can provide the most beautiful retaining walls at the most competitive prices.
Quarry rocks are unique because they are a limited resource. In other words, once the quarry runs out, you will not be able to find rocks to replicate your wall. This means your retaining wall will be unique, like a priceless piece of art that cannot be mimicked.

Testimonials

Absolutely fantastic. We had the New Life team replace our failing retaining wall and make some steps from our front to back yard and an area for a fire pit. They stabilized our wall despite torrential rain while they were working. Their work was surgically precise and our neighbors were also really happy. They replaced an ugly, rotten wall with a beautiful terraced one in terrible weather and stayed on budget doing so. They were so easy to work with and we are so happy with the result. Thank you!!

New Life Rockeries was so easy to work with on every step of the process. They heard our hopes/goals, provided awesome professional feedback to make it even better than our hopes, and got the job done! They started sooner than we expected, were very detailed focused (since I'm working form home I'd spy a little and was impressed by how they would spend the time to get each stone perfect), and they came in under budget! This was not a little project either, they leveled a weird hill we had, moved an old rock wall (even built a new rock wall with the old stones to another part of the yard that needed), and built a beautiful new patio and retaining wall with a built-in bench. Can't recommend them enough and will get more projects done by them in the future! *In the photos you will see a concrete wall, they did not do that ugly thing. That is getting covered by a fence that will sit on-top of the lovely wall New Life built.

"We loved working with the team. They listened to our concerns, landscape issues, provided reasonable solutions that work and excellent work. The team was meticulous and conscientious of our neighbors. They allowed us to expand on the project finding what worked best. Clean up everyday was part of their routine. We were kept informed every step of the way. We love our new patio areas, rockeries, landscape and drainage solutions. We now have a very livable and workable space! We would hire them again. "

Retaining Wall Sizes Available in Sammamish

Retaining walls come in all shapes and sizes, so you can find the perfect style and color to match your design. Here’s a glance at some of the benefits and qualities different rock sizes offer:

Half Man and One man

Half man and one man rocks are perfect to build a small retaining wall. They are usually under four feet tall, and you will often see builders using half man and one man rocks as a foundation. Then, they build upper layers with smaller rocks to make up the final wall. Using one man and half man rocks will make the installation process more labor-intensive, which means these projects may be more expensive.

Two Man and Three Man

There are the most common types of rocks used in retaining walls. They are bigger than one man and half man rocks, so they are perfect for numerous kinds of walls. Two man and three man rocks require heavy machinery, and they are easier to maneuver than smaller rocks. Heavy machinery makes the manual labor easier, so these walls usually cost less than other types.

Boulders

Although boulders are not usually used for retaining walls, you still see them occasionally. They come in all shapes and sizes, so they make a perfect fit for certain projects. At New Life Rockeries, we understand how different kinds of rocks fit together to form a wall. This is what makes our services so valuable. Retaining walls that are not properly installed will only last a few years before they fall apart. Our staff of professional builders is skilled at constructing sturdy retaining walls that will last for decades to come.

Sammamish Retaining Wall Placement

A retaining wall’s placement is usually the biggest factor in its success. Retaining walls are often built because they look great and because they help regulate water flow through your property. The landscape will define water flow, which will then dictate the placement of your retaining wall. Our team of experts can help you examine your property and decide the final location of your wall. We service homes and businesses throughout Snohomish and King Counties, including Sammamish, Seattle, Mukilteo, Everett, Mill Creek, and Bothell.

Cost of a Retaining Wall in Sammamish
