Summerlin South rises toward Red Rock on sloped lots where desert stone and terraced block walls turn hillside backyards into real living space. If your retaining wall is leaning, cracked, or failing after our monsoon rains, Las Vegas Retaining Wall knows exactly what's happening and how to fix it.
Homeowners in 89135 call us because we understand Summerlin South. Your lots are steep. Your soil traps water behind caliche hardpan. Your drip irrigation and sudden flash floods push hydrostatic pressure against walls that were never designed to handle it. We've repaired hundreds of block, boulder, and terraced walls in this neighborhood, and we know how to stabilize your slope before it takes your driveway or yard with it.
Retaining Wall in Summerlin South (89135)
Summerlin South sits on alluvial fans that rise steeply toward the Spring Mountains and Red Rock. Your neighborhood is built on terraced lots with 2000s two-story homes, raised yards, and hillside backyards that demand solid retaining walls. The terrain here is unforgiving. You've got collapsible desert soil that settles when it gets wet, caliche hardpan that stops drainage cold, and dry washes that flood hard and fast during monsoon season. Most walls in Summerlin South are split-face CMU block, segmental block around pools and raised planters, or stacked desert stone and boulder walls. They fail when water gets trapped behind them, when soil expands and contracts with irrigation cycles, or when a monsoon pushes thousands of gallons of runoff downslope in minutes.
We've been serving Summerlin South and the Las Vegas area for years. We know the soil conditions, the drainage challenges, and the permit requirements for walls in Clark County. We bring engineered solutions to steep lots and terraced yards where a standard wall simply won't hold.

How a Job Works in Summerlin South
We start with a free on-site assessment. We walk your property, look at the slope, check for water pooling or drainage problems, and ask about what happened (cracks after rain, visible lean, or a wall that's been sinking). We take photos and measurements, and we give you a realistic estimate and timeline on the spot. Most jobs in Summerlin South require a permit because of wall height and the surcharge from driveways or structures, so we'll coordinate that with the Clark County building department and handle the paperwork.
The work itself depends on what you need. If it's a repair, we may inject grout, add drainage, or rebuild a section. If it's a full replacement, we excavate, set proper footing below frost depth, install drainage tile to stop hydrostatic pressure, and rebuild with block, stone, or segmental material that matches your yard. Summerlin South lots are tight, so we plan access carefully and may use smaller equipment or hand crews to protect your landscaping and neighbors' property lines.
When we're done, we haul away all debris, backfill and compact, and walk through the finished work with you. Your yard is clean and your wall is built to last.
Pricing in Summerlin South depends on size, access, soil condition, and what you're asking us to do. A block or segmental wall replacement typically runs $35 per square foot. Boulder and natural stone walls start at $25 per square foot. Timber walls are $20 per square foot. Repairs on existing walls start at $1,500 and go up based on the damage and whether drainage work is needed. If your wall has failed and needs full replacement with engineered drainage, budget $2,500 to $5,000 or more, depending on linear footage and height. Slope stabilization and erosion control starts with a free estimate. The best way to know what your job will cost is to call us at (725) 726-4860 and get an on-site assessment. We'll give you a firm price before we start work.
