Desert Block Wall Phoenix has masons and footing crews for block wall construction, block wall repair and retaining walls across Phoenix. We build new perimeter and privacy walls, fix cracked and leaning ones, and raise walls that are too short.
A block wall in Phoenix takes a beating: caliche soil, tree roots, sprinkler water soaking the base, and monsoon gusts pushing on a 6-foot panel. Most of the walls we repair failed below grade, so every wall we build starts with the footing and the steel.
The City of Phoenix requires a permit for residential walls and fences over 3 feet high, and for retaining walls over 3 feet. We pull that permit as part of the job, so your wall is drawn, inspected and on record.
Every estimate is written, with demolition, footing, block, rebar, grout, cap and finish on separate lines.

We look at every wall in person before quoting. Phone quotes miss the footing.
A trench cut through the top soil into firm ground, with steel set in the concrete before any block goes on.
Vertical rebar run up through the block cores and grouted solid, so the wall acts as one piece in wind.
Weep holes and a graded swale so storm water and sprinkler runoff don't soak the footing.
Cap block or a stucco return that sheds rain and keeps water out of the open cells.

Phoenix zoning caps a wall in the required front yard at 40 inches and a wall along a side or rear yard at 6 feet. Height is measured from the higher finished grade on either side, which matters when your yard sits lower than your neighbor's.
Arizona law requires a call to Arizona 811 before digging a footing. Locators get two full working days to mark the lines, and we don't trench until every utility on the ticket has answered.
Yes, for most walls. The City of Phoenix requires a permit for residential walls over 3 feet high and for retaining walls over 3 feet. We handle the permit as part of the job.
Phoenix zoning limits a wall in the required front yard to 40 inches and a side or rear yard wall to 6 feet, measured from the higher finished grade. Taller walls need a variance or a specific exception.
Most cracked walls can be repaired. We cut out the damaged panel, fix what caused it, such as roots or a failed footing, and rebuild it tied into the good wall on each side.
Length, height, how much old wall comes out, footing depth, block type, pilasters, gates and the finish. We measure on site and list each item in a written estimate.
