Why people call about this.
The slope is washing out
A wall turns an eroding bank into level, usable ground.
You want a level patio on a sloped lot
Common in the hill country side of Bell County. The wall holds the grade the patio sits on.
An old wall is leaning
Usually a drainage or footing problem. Rebuilding it right is cheaper than repairing it twice.
SALADO, TX
Retaining Walls in Salado: what’s different here.
Salado is a small, historic village of about 2,400 people (2020 census) on Salado Creek, home to the Stagecoach Inn and nineteen sites on the National Register of Historic Places. Around the old village are larger-lot communities such as Mill Creek, the gated Sanctuary, and Hidden Springs, where estate lots run from 2 to 20 acres. The Village of Salado issues its own building permits, has a historic district overlay adopted in 2023, and asks for a floodplain certificate on lots in the floodplain, and gated communities such as Sanctuary have their own HOA review.
Pavers & Hardscape in Salado
Natural stone and paver work suits Salado’s historic character, and sloped creek-side lots often need retaining walls to make level outdoor space.
The ground
Salado sits on the Balcones Fault, where springs come to the surface and limestone is close underfoot, so digging often means rock and lots near the creek need to respect the floodplain.
Homes and lots
Historic homes near Main Street and the creek, golf-course homes in Mill Creek, custom homes in Sanctuary with some lots backing onto Salado Creek, and wooded acreage in Hidden Springs.
