Block Wall Projects We Do

New Privacy and Perimeter Walls

Side, rear and front yard walls for privacy, security and pool barriers. We confirm the layout, height limits, property line and utilities before the wall is priced.

Block Wall Replacement

Walls with long cracks, leaning sections or failed footings are usually better rebuilt than patched. Photos of the whole wall and the ground at its base help us decide.

Block Wall Repair

Chipped block, cracked mortar joints, damaged caps and small sections of settlement. Repairs work when the cause is local. If the footing keeps moving, the repair will not hold.

Retaining and Specialty Walls

Walls that hold soil or carry extra load often need engineering and a permit. Tell us the purpose and site conditions and we will tell you if the project fits what we build.

How a Block Wall Is Built

A typical Valley block wall uses concrete masonry units laid on a reinforced concrete footing, with steel and grout where the design calls for it, then capped and finished. Exact footing size, steel and height follow the city code and the plans for your lot.

Before Any Wall Goes Up

  • Property line. Know where it is. A survey is the safest proof. Walls on a shared line usually need coordination with your neighbor.
  • Utilities. Arizona law requires contacting Arizona 811 before digging. Utility marking must be completed before excavation.
  • Permits and height. Requirements vary by city, wall height and location on the lot. Taller walls and retaining walls typically need a permit and sometimes engineering.
  • HOA. Many Valley communities limit wall color, height and style. Get approval before you build.

QUESTIONS

Block Wall Questions

How much does a block wall cost in Phoenix?+

Cost is driven by length, height, footing, finish and access, so we quote after seeing the site.

Do I need a permit to build a block wall in Arizona?+

Often yes, depending on the city, the height and where the wall sits on the lot. Retaining walls and taller walls usually require a permit. We tell you what applies to your address.

Can you replace a cracked or leaning block wall?+

Yes. We tear out the failed section, check the footing, and rebuild. Photos of the entire wall and the ground beside it speed up the estimate.

How tall can a backyard block wall be?+

Limits depend on the city and the location of the wall. Many Valley cities set separate limits for front, side and rear walls. Ask us before you plan the height and we will check your city's rules.
