    Natural stone retaining wall with integrated steps in Old Bridge, NJ

    Retaining Walls in South River, NJ

    Fieldstone, block, and timber walls that hold back the hill and look good doing it. Built with real drainage so it doesn't blow out in three years.

    What's included

    Everything this job takes. Done right.

    Fieldstone & Natural Stone

    Dry-laid or mortared stone walls that look like they belong on the property.

    Segmental Block Walls

    Engineered block walls, pinned and backed with proper base.

    Timber Walls

    Pressure-treated timber for a clean, cost-effective hold.

    Steps & Terracing

    Turn a steep slope into usable, good-looking tiers.

    Drainage Behind the Wall

    Gravel, pipe, and weep holes so water doesn't push it over.

    Wall Repairs

    Leaning, bulging, or failing wall? We fix it before it falls.

    Why Carr & Son

    The difference is in the part you can't see.

    Anybody can lay stone or pull leaves. We build it so it holds up — the base, the drainage, the details that keep it looking good five years from now.

    • Proper base and drainage — the part you can't see is what keeps it standing.
    • Engineered for the height and load, not just stacked and hoped for.
    • Built to handle Jersey freeze-thaw without bowing or cracking.
