Retaining wall construction in NW Oregon is not a one-size-fits-all job. The region's clay-heavy soils, steep hillside lots, and seasonal rainfall that pushes well past 40 inches per year put real pressure on slopes and foundations. Without a properly built wall, that pressure leads to soil movement, yard loss, and damage to structures nearby. At Holladay and Sons LLC, we build masonry retaining walls designed for these exact conditions. Every wall starts with a site read: we look at slope angle, soil type, water flow, and how the wall will carry load over time. From there, we set a stable base, build up the masonry courses, and integrate drainage behind the wall to prevent hydrostatic pressure from building up — the leading cause of wall failure in the Pacific Northwest. We work on residential and commercial properties throughout NW Oregon. Whether you need a short garden wall to reclaim a sloped backyard or a taller structural wall to protect a foundation, we size and build it to hold.
