Strength, Beauty, and Functionality in Every Wall


A well-crafted retaining wall does more than hold back soil—it transforms your yard into a beautifully structured and functional space. Whether you’re looking to create level garden beds, prevent erosion, or add unique architectural features, our retaining walls offer a perfect balance of durability and aesthetic appeal.

Block walls are engineered to be a low maintenance option to functionally hold back soil. They can handle substantial loads, perfect for front gardens and creating grade changes. The solid construction means there are minimal gaps, preventing wash-through and deterring rodents.

Granite boulders come in various colors, offering a natural, rustic appeal, including gray, cream, red, and blue. These rounder stones are perfect for landscaping with trailing plants, adding a gorgeous, organic element to your wall’s appearance.

Achieve a formal look without resorting to pre-made concrete products. Limestone, readily available in the Southern Wisconsin area, blends seamlessly into the local topography, giving your home a naturally sophisticated look.

With versatile seating walls, you can add function and flair to your garden. Ideal for placement around patios, along the base of garden grades, or encircling trees, these walls can also double as planting areas, enhancing your space with greenery.

Retaining walls provide structural support, preventing soil erosion and managing water drainage. They also enhance your property’s aesthetics by creating level spaces for gardens, patios, and outdoor living areas.

We’ve used Kittleson Landscape on three projects and they really outdid themselves this time! Navigating a tight timeline, dodging weather, delivering right on budget, all while helping us come up with creative ideas we didn’t see at first. Kirk is absolutely incredible to work with and strongly recommend reaching out to the firm!!

We highly recommend Kittleson Landscape. What a night and day experience from the previous company we dealt with. After getting 4 bids to fix the horrible job the previous company did, Kittleson stood out. It also helped my neighbor used them to do a retaining wall. We saw them using lasers to measure and make sure everything was square and level, not what previous dude did. We loved the little extras touches they did with the big rocks to help where rain water can erode the landscape and level out areas. We are very happy with their final outcome. They were very fair in their pricing and their crew was professional and courteous. Thank you to Ryan and his crew!

Kittleson Landscaping is second to none! We recently built a new home and wanted a beautiful looking yard that would be low maintenance and still be appealing. Craig designed the perfect plan for us. We couldn’t be happier with the results. The crew was very professional, very hard working, and they cleaned up every day before they left. They even blew the dust off our vehicles.
Craig managed more than his crew, he worked with our builder, concrete crew, and irrigation crew and everything was done smoothly. Thank you to your great team. We highly recommend Kittleson Landscaping.

Kittleson Landscape crew are fantastic! We had a one-day project and Kirk was very responsive beforehand and transparent about cost. The crew came out and were so friendly, respectful to our property and neighbors (and our dog!!), and thoroughly cleaned up after themselves (leaf blowing, sweeping, etc.) We are so happy with the outcome and it really feels like they went above and beyond. We’ll be using them for all future landscaping needs!

We highly recommend Kittleson Landscaping! They completely transformed our yard from an overgrown mess into a beautiful sanctuary. The entire project was much bigger and involved than we could have ever imagined. We had a large lot with many unforeseen challenges, including weather and they met those challenges with amazing results. They were always happy to answer our questions and kept us informed throughout the process.

Kirk’s crew was fantastic, professional, friendly, and took immense pride in their work.

Kittleson isn’t just another landscaping company; they’re a team passionate about creating beautiful outdoor spaces. We have recommended Kittleson to family and friends and will continue to do so.

They recently completed our daughter’s landscaping at her new house. They made the entire experience enjoyable, and she is thrilled with the results. Her lot was small and as you cans see they built a beautiful retaining wall, outdoor patio, firepit and pergola with porch swings making a great outdoor living/entertaining space.

We couldn’t have been more impressed with this amazing and professional team and would hire them again without hesitation!
