Interlocking concrete block walls — the most popular, cost-effective way to hold back a slope in a Anchorage yard.
Segmental retaining wall (SRW) block is engineered for the job: each unit interlocks with the course below and steps back into the slope, so the wall leans into the hill it's holding. With a compacted gravel base and clean stone backfill, block walls handle most residential slopes and come in a range of colors and textures.

Excavate and compact a level trench, set a gravel leveling base, and place the first course dead level — that base course makes or breaks the wall. Stack and step back the courses, backfill with clean crushed stone, run a perforated drain pipe behind the wall, add geogrid into the soil for taller walls, then cap it off. Drainage and compaction are what keep it standing for decades.
