Why do retaining walls need capping?

Wall capping protects the top course of a retaining wall from moisture ingress, frost damage, and weathering. It also provides a clean, finished appearance and sheds water away from the wall face.

What materials are used for retaining wall capping?

We install granite capping, limestone capping, bluestone capping, concrete capping, and reconstituted stone capping depending on the wall material and aesthetic requirements.

Can capping be added to an existing retaining wall?

Yes — wall capping can be installed on any existing stone or concrete retaining wall. It is also a common element of retaining wall restoration and repair projects.

What is the difference between natural stone and concrete capping?

Natural stone capping (granite, limestone, bluestone) provides a premium finish with unique character. Concrete capping offers manufactured consistency and suits segmental block wall systems.

What We Provide

Granite Capping

Cut granite capping stones installed on the top course of granite, fieldstone, and boulder retaining walls. Granite capping provides a durable, weather-resistant finish that complements natural stone walls and extends wall life by shedding water away from the wall face.

Limestone Capping

Sawn and natural limestone capping for limestone block and natural stone retaining walls. Limestone capping delivers a clean, refined finish with a consistent colour and texture that complements both formal and naturalistic wall styles.

Bluestone Capping

Bluestone capping for bluestone and high-end residential retaining walls. Bluestone's smooth, consistent surface and distinctive blue-grey colour create a sophisticated wall top that suits formal architectural settings.

Concrete Capping

Precast concrete capping units for concrete block and segmental retaining walls. Available in a range of profiles and finishes to complement Allan Block, Versa-Lok, Keystone, and other segmental wall systems.

Reconstituted Stone Capping

Cast stone and cultured stone capping for walls where a natural stone appearance is desired with manufactured consistency. Reconstituted stone capping is available in profiles that replicate granite, limestone, and sandstone.

Wall capping is the finishing detail that protects and completes any retaining wall. For granite retaining walls, we match the capping stone to the wall face material for a consistent, integrated finish. Limestone walls pair beautifully with sawn limestone capping for a clean architectural edge. Capping is also an important part of retaining wall restoration — replacing damaged or missing cap stones restores the wall's weathering protection. Our landscaping services can integrate the capped wall into the broader landscape design.
