Shoot the bank, pick a material, and get several wall treatments back in seconds.
One slope, every wall style
Modern, natural, and rustic retaining wall looks, applied to a photo of your actual grade, not a stock bank.
How AI retaining wall design works
One photo of the slope or grade change is usually enough.
- 01
Photograph the slope
Shoot the bank or grade change with the house or yard in frame so the height reads true.
- 02
Pick the wall
Block, natural stone, poured concrete, or timber. One tall wall or stepped terraces, with planting.
- 03
Compare concepts
Get several wall treatments on your real slope so you can rule options out before the structural quote.
Built for real slope projects
What an honest retaining wall concept has to get right.
Materials you can compare
Ask for segmental block, natural stone, poured concrete, or timber and it renders each on your slope, so the choice is a decision, not a sample at the yard.
One wall or stepped terraces
See a single tall wall against stepped terraces with planting between them, so you can judge the look and the usable space each one gives back.
Add planting and steps
Drop in a planted terrace, steps up the grade, or a cap you can sit on, against your actual house and yard, then hand the concept to an engineer or contractor.

AI retaining wall design questions

No, and this matters: a wall over a few feet needs an engineer for drainage, footing, and soil load. This tool sets the look and layout only. Take the concept to a pro for the structural design.
