The Terrain

Ground that
won't sit still.

Chattanooga yards come with grade. Ridges drop fast, creek bottoms stay wet, and clay holds water right where you don't want it. A wall that's just stacked and hoped for will lean, settle and wash out.

Hollow Creek Wallworks cuts the wall into the hill, drains behind it, and steps it back — so the ground above can push all it wants.

  • Steep ridgetop drops and switchback driveways
  • Creekside banks and drainage swales
  • Clay-heavy soil that holds water
  • Tight access and narrow side yards

What We Build

Stone, block,
and the work underneath.

Every yard is different. These are starting points — call or text with your address and we'll talk through what your grade actually needs.

The Work

Built into the hill,
not on top of it.

Terrace, step, drain. That's the order that keeps a wall standing when the ground above it is still moving.

How a build goes

  1. 01

    Walk the grade

    We look at where the water goes and how the hill moves before anything gets dug.

  2. 02

    Set the line

    Elevation, depth and layout get marked out so the wall lands where it has to.

  3. 03

    Build the base

    A compacted, level base course, with drainage stone and pipe behind the wall.

  4. 04

    Stack and finish

    Courses stepped back into the hill, caps set, and the site put back together.

Service Area

From the ridges down to the valley floor.

We work out of Chattanooga and stay in the valley and the ridges right around it — mountain roads, narrow side yards, and lots that fall away from the house.
