Retaining Walls
At Grit Excavation, we design and build high-quality retaining walls that combine structural strength with clean, professional aesthetics. Whether you need to manage elevation changes, prevent erosion, or maximize usable space, our retaining wall solutions are engineered to perform and built to last. Serving residential, commercial, and agricultural clients across Utah County, Salt Lake County, and Summit County, we deliver walls that are as functional as they are visually appealing.
Residential Retaining Walls
We construct custom retaining walls for homes, yards, and driveways — helping homeowners improve landscape usability, prevent soil movement, and enhance curb appeal. Whether it’s a decorative garden wall or a large structural barrier, we work closely with property owners and landscapers to get it just right.
Why Choose Us?
We offer custom wall solutions using block, concrete, or natural stone to suit your landscape and budget.
Our walls are engineered for long-term durability and local soil conditions.
We respect your property and leave the site clean, tidy, and ready for the next step.


Commercial & Structural Walls
Our team builds heavy-duty retaining walls for parking lots, building foundations, loading areas, and large-scale landscape features. We collaborate with engineers, architects, and project managers to ensure every wall meets structural standards and integrates seamlessly into the overall site plan.
Why Choose Us?
We manage wall design, layout, excavation, drainage, and backfill — start to finish.
Our crew works with precision and coordination to avoid delays or rework.
We use commercial-grade materials built for strength, stability, and compliance.
Hillside Stabilization & Erosion Control
For sloped or unstable terrain, we design and build retaining walls that stabilize the land and control runoff. These solutions help protect structures, reduce erosion, and create safe, usable ground in challenging environments.
Why Choose Us?
We evaluate site conditions and soil stability before recommending the best solution.
Our drainage systems ensure water doesn’t build up behind the wall or damage surrounding land.
We’re experienced in hillside work and steep terrain — no project is too tough.

A great retaining wall does more than hold back earth — it supports your entire project. We build walls that look sharp, function flawlessly, and stand the test of time.
