Retaining Walls and Standing Walls in San Diego
Strength That Supports. Style That Stands Out.
Whether you’re looking to manage elevation, prevent erosion, or simply elevate the look of your yard, paver walls offer the perfect balance of form and function. At Pavers by Coyote, we design and install block retaining walls and pillars that serve both structural and decorative purposes, customized to complement your outdoor space.
Why Our Walls Stand Out
- Engineered for strength
- Customized to your landscape
- Long-lasting and weatherproof
Why Choose Stone Paver Walls?
Need structure? Our custom retaining walls are built for both beauty and stability. Perfect for leveling slopes, defining spaces, or adding visual interest. Our concrete pavers come with a lifetime guarantee against cracking, chipping, or breakage, so you never have to worry about replacing your surface.
Built to Last
Our retaining walls are engineered for durability. Whether holding back soil or framing your landscape, they’re built with interlocking systems that stand strong against pressure, moisture, and time.
Seamless Design Integration
Paver walls can be styled to match your driveway, patio, pool deck, or walkway—creating a cohesive, high-end look throughout your property. Choose from a variety of textures, shapes, and colors to suit your aesthetic.
Functional Beauty
These walls aren’t just practical, they’re beautiful. Use them to create raised planters, seating walls, garden borders, or to add elevation and dimension to your outdoor design.
Low Maintenance
Unlike timber or traditional block walls, stone pavers resist rot, pests, and wear. Occasional rinsing and light cleaning are all you need to keep them looking sharp.

Retaining & Freestanding Stone Walls – FAQs
Whether for function or aesthetics, block retaining walls can add structure, beauty, and long-term value to your landscape. Below are some common questions about our retaining wall and standing wall installations. Call 760-623-0066 for tailored advice.
We design and build both retaining walls and freestanding stone walls, tailored to your landscape needs. If you’re looking for structural support—such as holding back soil on a slope—a retaining wall is the right choice. We construct durable, beautiful retaining walls using high-quality concrete blocks or natural stone.
For decorative or functional features, we also build freestanding walls (also known as sitting walls), which are perfect for defining outdoor spaces. These are commonly used to frame patios, outline raised garden beds, or add seating without the need for permits (typically if under three feet tall).
Each wall is customized to match your outdoor design, blending seamlessly with patios, concrete pavers, and surrounding paving elements.
Retaining walls are designed to hold soil in place and prevent it from shifting due to gravity or erosion. They’re essential in landscapes with slopes or grade changes, where they provide structural support and help level out usable yard space.
By creating a stable barrier, retaining walls stop soil from sliding downhill and can also improve drainage and reduce flooding risks. In addition to their function, they can be built with concrete blocks or decorative stone to enhance your outdoor aesthetic.
A properly installed retaining wall system can last for decades. We use high-quality block materials backed by manufacturer warranties and install every wall with proper drainage and reinforcement to prevent shifting or failure.
Yes! We work with a variety of concrete wall blocks and stone veneer options that can coordinate perfectly with your concrete pavers, walkways, patios, or pool decks for a cohesive, upscale look.
Costs vary based on the height, length, material type, and complexity of the design. Since each project is unique, we provide a free design consultation to give you an accurate estimate for your custom wall and paving project.
You’ll receive expert recommendations and a detailed estimate for your wall and paving project.
Yes! We can seamlessly integrate outdoor lighting into any retaining wall or freestanding wall design. Built-in LED wall lights not only enhance the beauty of your landscape but also improve safety by illuminating walkways, patios, and garden edges.
Our team designs and installs low-voltage, energy-efficient lighting systems that complement your wall’s materials whether you’re using concrete blocks, natural stone, or other hardscape elements. Few features elevate curb appeal like a beautifully lit wall at night.
A proper paver base for a retaining wall should typically be 4 to 6 inches deep, depending on the wall’s height and the soil conditions. This compacted gravel base—usually made of Class II road base or crushed stone—provides critical stability and drainage.
For taller retaining walls, we may go deeper or include geogrid reinforcement to ensure long-term strength. Our team uses precise engineering standards to determine the ideal base depth for every project, ensuring your retaining wall stays solid and level for decades.
