No. 1 Outdoor Water Features & Retaining Wall Contractors in the Dallas-Fort Worth Area
Create & customize your own private oasis outdoors!
Retaining walls are generally built to retain soil or provide drainage control. However, they also provide aesthetic and landscape design functions. A courtyard wall around a patio can serve as additional seating and retaining walls can be built to gain additional space in your yard by transforming hills into usable space.
We make every retaining wall functional and aesthetically satisfying, blending the shapes, textures, materials, and colors to complement your architecture and landscape. We have the knowledge and experience to build any size retaining wall expertly.
At McFall Masonry, we also enjoy building beautiful water features. Our rock or brick construction depends on the style of your landscape and whether or not your water feature sits at your pond's edge or flows directly into a pond. We're eager to design and build out a custom outdoor water feature to match your style, your land, and your wildest dreams
