Retaining Wall Design & Construction in Beverly, MA
Stone walls are part of Beverly's character. The city's preservation plan describes Beverly Farms estates set behind 'imposing' roadside walls. We build new walls to fit that tradition.

What to know before you start.
Within 50 feet of a wetland, most structures (walls included) are barred, and within 25 feet nothing can be disturbed. We plan walls outside those zones.
Cape Ann granite is right there under the soil. Sometimes it's the footing.
