Stone Retaining Walls / Hand Stackable

Napoleon Stone produces several types of natural stone that can be used as a natural stone retaining wall for small DIY projects in your backyard that do not require heavy equipment.  All natural stone retaining wall options can be used either by itself or blended with other Napoleon Stone retaining wall stone products depending on the goals of the homeowner for the project.  Napoleon’s retaining wall stone can be used to build retaining walls, garden walls, raised flowerbeds and planters.  A homeowner might build a simple accent stone wall bordering a garden just a few inches tall, while a professional might build a natural stone retaining wall up to 20 feet tall along a shoreline.  Our stone retaining wall stone is available in several sizes and styles depending on one’s preference or need.  Heavier retaining wall stone should be used if the stone wall is intended to hold back soil movement and water erosion.  Most stone retaining walls are called dry stack stone walls or hand stack stone walls.  These types of walls are constructed with stones that have flat surfaces and consistent stone heights.
