Armour Stone

Retaining walls, entrance features, and garden accents — built from massive natural stone and placed with precision.

Walls that hold — and look the part

Armour stone is the gold standard for retaining walls. Massive, natural, and virtually maintenance-free, it holds back slopes and shorelines while looking like it's always belonged there. Most of our armour stone work is structural retaining walls, but we also build decorative entrances, pillars, and garden features.

Every wall starts with proper excavation, a solid base, and drainage behind the stone. With grapple-equipped excavators and experienced operators, we place each stone level and tight — so the wall stands strong for generations.

What We Build

From shoreline walls to driveway entrances

Retaining Walls

Heavy-duty armour stone walls that hold back slopes, shorelines, and grade changes for decades.

Entrance Features

Make a statement at the end of your driveway with custom armour stone pillars, walls, and signage stones.

Garden & Landscape

Tiered garden walls, accent boulders, and natural stone features that bring permanence and character to your yard.

Built to Last

Properly bedded, leveled, and back-drained — our walls stand up to frost, water, and time.

Precision Placement

Heavy stone, careful hands

Each armour stone can weigh thousands of pounds. With our grapple attachments and skilled operators, we set every piece exactly where it belongs — level, tight, and locked in. The result is a wall or feature that looks hand-built and lasts a lifetime.

Whether you need a structural wall to fix an erosion problem or a decorative entrance that turns heads, we'll walk the site with you, talk through options, and give you an honest quote.
