Engineered retaining and seating walls that tame slopes and stop erosion.
On the steep, rocky slopes of Marble Falls, a retaining wall is often the difference between a usable yard and a hillside washing toward the lake. Thin soil over granite doesn't hold a grade, and Hill Country storms cut into slopes fast. Corral Bros builds engineered retaining walls across Horseshoe Bay, Meadowlakes, and lakeside lots, taming the slope, stopping erosion, and creating level, usable ground where there was none.
We build walls that are engineered for real loads and drained properly behind, because a wall that can't shed water fails no matter how good it looks. On lakeside lots that means terracing a steep grade into level tiers you can plant, patio, or build on. We match the stone to the granite-country setting. We are locally owned, licensed, and insured.

We're a local, family-built company that treats your Marble Falls property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and retaining walls that holds up to Burnet County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
You need a retaining wall when a slope is eroding, you want to level a yard for usable space, or you need to manage water and grade changes around a patio or foundation. Retaining walls are common on the rocky, hilly lots throughout Central Texas.
As a general rule, retaining walls taller than about 4 feet, or walls holding back heavy loads, require engineering and often a permit in Central Texas. We build to code, with proper base and drainage, and bring in engineering when a project calls for it.
If your slope is eroding, you're losing usable yard, or water is cutting toward the house or lake, likely yes. Retaining walls hold the grade and create flat, usable ground on the steep lots common around Lake Marble Falls. Corral Bros can look at your slope and tell you honestly whether a wall is the right fix.
Because water pressure behind a wall is what makes it fail. On our rocky slopes, a heavy storm pushes water against the wall, so we build in drainage to relieve that pressure. A wall that looks fine but can't drain will eventually lean or blow out. We build ours to shed water and last.
Yes. By terracing a steep grade into level tiers, a retaining wall creates flat ground you can plant, patio, or build on where there was only a hillside. It's one of the best ways to reclaim a steep lakeside lot. Corral Bros plans the terracing around your grade and how you want to use it.
It depends on the wall's height and length, the slope, the material, and the drainage and engineering required. Taller walls holding more load cost more. Corral Bros gives a free on-site estimate after seeing your grade. Usually within 48 hours. Call (737) 404-9343.
