Charlotte Pro Retaining Wall connects Matthews homeowners with independent local providers for small and mid-size retaining walls, drainage behind walls and wall repair. Matthews mixes a historic downtown with decades of surrounding subdivisions, and both generate steady wall work.
Downtown and established subdivisions
Around the historic Trade Street downtown, older homes sit on deep lots where a low wall tidies up a front slope. Surrounding neighborhoods built from the 1970s through the 2000s often have sloped backyards and aging timber walls ready for replacement.
Creeks and sloping yards
Matthews is drained by Four Mile Creek, Irvins Creek and their branches, so many backyards slope toward a stream. Those yards are prime candidates for terraces that turn a hillside into usable lawn — with drainage that keeps the clay from pushing the walls over.
What Matthews homeowners ask for
- Brick- or stone-capped walls that match older homes
- Backyard terraces on lots that fall toward a creek
- Timber wall tear-outs and block rebuilds
- Garden walls around patios
Permits
Taller retaining walls (commonly those over about 4 feet) may require a building permit and an engineered design under local building codes; homeowners should confirm with their city or county. In Matthews, check with the local permitting office before a taller wall is built.
