Clemmons is a town of walk-out basements and sloped backyards, where 1990s and 2000s two-story homes sit on clay lots that drain toward Tanglewood Park and the Yadkin River. If you live off Lewisville-Clemmons Road or in a subdivision near the Yadkin, you already know how fast a wall can lean after a summer downpour.

Homeowners in Clemmons (27012) call Winston-Salem Retaining Wall because we understand the red clay under your lawn and the hydrostatic pressure that builds behind a wall when drainage fails. We are fully insured, and our team holds NCMA Segmental Retaining Wall Installer Certification, so we build walls that hold up to Piedmont weather, not just the first heavy rain.

Retaining Wall in Clemmons (27012)

Clemmons sits on rolling clay that holds water like a sponge. In the walk-out subdivisions near Tanglewood Park, segmental block terraces hold up driveways and patios, and when the soil gets saturated, walls bow, crack, or slide. Many lots also have mature oaks and pines whose roots and shade keep the ground damp, which is hard on timber and railroad tie walls from the 70s and 90s. We see a lot of failed drainage behind walls on the hillside streets off Peace Haven Road, and we fix the cause, not just the face of the wall.

Our crew handles installation, repair, replacement, concrete, block, boulder, timber, slope stabilization, and drainage. We know how to work on tight lots where the only access is a narrow side yard, and we plan around the grade so water moves away from your foundation.

How a Job Works in Clemmons

Step 1: call (743) 210-3267 or request a free on-site assessment. We walk the wall with you, check the soil and drainage, and talk through options and a written estimate. We also flag whether the work may need a permit, which you can verify with the City of Clemmons website before we start.

Step 2: we schedule the work and handle the details. On tight Clemmons lots, that means planning material delivery and excavation around your driveway and landscaping. If your neighborhood has an HOA, we provide the wall specs and drawings you need for approval. We build to NCMA standards, with proper base, compaction, and drainage behind the wall.

Step 3: we clean the site, haul away debris, and walk the finished wall with you. We leave your property clean and show you how the drainage works so you can keep it clear.

Pricing in Clemmons depends on wall height, length, access, and soil conditions. Common ballparks: block and segmental walls from $25 per square foot, timber walls from $20 per square foot, concrete and replacement from $35 per square foot, and installation from $30 per square foot. Repairs start at $1,500, drainage from $2,500, and leaning or collapsed wall repair from $2,500. Slope stabilization and erosion control start with a free estimate. Tight access or a wall supporting a driveway can raise the cost. Call (743) 210-3267 for a free, no-pressure estimate.

My backyard in Clemmons slopes toward the house and the wall is bowing. What is likely wrong?

On Clemmons clay, a bowing wall usually means water is trapped behind it. We check for clogged drain pipes, missing gravel, and soil that has settled. Fixing the drainage and rebuilding the wall properly is the long-term repair, and we can assess it on site.

A storm just washed out part of my wall near the Yadkin River. Can you respond quickly?

Yes. Call (743) 210-3267 and describe the damage. We prioritize walls that threaten a home, driveway, or utility, and we can shore up or stabilize the area before scheduling the full repair.

What does a typical retaining wall cost in Clemmons?

Most residential walls fall between $25 and $35 per square foot for block or stone, and repairs often start around $1,500. Height, access, and drainage needs drive the final number. We give a written estimate after a free on-site visit.

Do I need a permit for a retaining wall in Clemmons?

Many jurisdictions require a permit for walls above roughly 4 feet from the footing or when the wall supports a driveway or structure. Rules vary, so check with the local building department through the City of Clemmons website before work begins. We can help you understand what your project may need.

My neighbor and I share a slope, and I want to build a wall near the property line. What should I do?

Start by confirming your property lines with a survey. Setbacks and drainage rules apply, and it is smart to talk with your neighbor early. If you are in an HOA, submit the wall plans for approval before construction. We can provide the specs you need.

Are you insured for work at my Clemmons home?

Yes. We are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage, so you are protected if anything goes wrong on your property.

How should I maintain my retaining wall in Clemmons?

Keep the drainage clear, watch for cracks or movement after heavy rain, and avoid planting large trees right behind the wall. In our clay soil, fall and spring are good times to check that water flows away from the wall and not into it.
