Housing in Randolph Center in Randolph includes homes sitting on fieldstone and block foundations, and wind-driven rain from nor'easters is what wears this masonry down. That is why our retaining walls work starts with understanding what your building is made of — brick type, stone, mortar hardness, and drainage — before we price anything. A retaining wall fails from water, not weight. We build with proper base depth, geogrid reinforcement where needed, and drainage behind the wall so it stays plumb through New England winters.
