Retaining Walls in Oklahoma City
We build retaining walls that hold — engineered for Oklahoma soil, built for commercial results, and backed by a crew that’s been doing this across the OKC metro for over two decades.
If your property has a slope, erosion issue, or grade change that needs to be managed, a professionally built retaining wall is one of the most cost-effective long-term solutions available. At Alex’s Construction Co, LLC, we handle commercial retaining wall projects from site assessment through final inspection.
Retaining Wall Systems We Install
- Poured Concrete Walls — The strongest option for tall walls and heavy load applications. Requires engineered drawings for commercial projects. Common on commercial developments, parking lots, and municipal sites.
- Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) Block Walls — Durable, versatile, and clean-looking. A solid choice when you need structural strength with a finished appearance — popular on commercial and mixed-use properties.
- Segmental Retaining Wall Systems — Interlocking concrete block (Allan Block, Versa-Lok, and similar) designed for tiered walls, curved layouts, and large-scale slope management. Widely used in commercial landscaping and site development.
- Decorative Concrete Retaining Walls — When the wall is visible from the street or neighboring property, we offer form-liner textures, exposed aggregate, and concrete staining to give it a finished, intentional look.
On every project we install:
- Gravel backfill behind the wall to allow water to drain freely
- Weep holes or perforated drain pipe to redirect water away from the wall
- French drains where needed for heavier drainage loads
- Proper grading to direct surface runoff away from the wall base

Why Our Retaining Walls Are Different in Oklahoma City
Oklahoma’s expansive clay soil is one of the most challenging environments for concrete and masonry work in the country. It shifts, swells, and contracts with moisture and that movement puts constant pressure on any structure in the ground.
That’s why we design every wall with Oklahoma soil conditions in mind:
- We account for soil bearing capacity and surcharge load before recommending a wall system
- We size footings based on local frost depth and soil type, not a generic spec sheet
- We specify drainage systems appropriate for OKC’s clay-heavy soil profiles
- We’ve built walls across the metro from Edmond to Moore, Yukon to Midwest City — we know what holds up here
