Retaining Walls & Patios
A retaining wall is only as good as what you cannot see. Base preparation, drainage, and compaction decide whether a wall stands straight for decades or leans within a few seasons. Cougar Masonry builds retaining walls in block, natural stone, and segmental systems with proper footing depth, gravel backfill, and drainage designed for Northeast Ohio freeze and thaw cycles.
On the surface, we build the spaces you actually live in. Stone and paver patios, walkways, front steps, pillars, and fire features that turn a yard into an outdoor room. Every project starts with a site visit so we can look at grades, drainage, and access before we quote a single number.

Common Questions
Why do retaining walls fail?+
Nearly always water and base problems. Walls built without drainage stone, perforated pipe, or a compacted base get pushed over by saturated soil and frost. We build every wall to shed water and resist frost pressure.
Do I need a permit for a retaining wall?+
Many Ohio municipalities require permits and sometimes engineering for walls above about 4 feet. We help you sort out what your city requires as part of the estimate.
Paver patio or natural stone?+
Pavers offer uniformity, quick installation, and a wide range of styles. Natural stone offers one of a kind character and exceptional longevity. We will show you both during your consultation.
