From engineered retaining walls and concrete flatwork to stamped patios, decks and pool decks — COMO Construction and Landscaping builds outdoor spaces across Columbia and Mid-Missouri that are designed to last.
Welcome to COMO Construction and Landscaping — Columbia's trusted retaining wall contractor. From erosion control and slope stabilization to custom stone and block walls that double as landscape features, we design and build walls that hold. Our crews also handle precision concrete flatwork, stamped and stained finishes, patios, driveways, decks and complete landscape construction.
Whether you are picturing a new driveway that lifts your curb appeal, a custom-patterned patio that becomes the centerpiece of your backyard, or a deck and retaining wall that finally make a sloped lot usable, we bring the local know-how and equipment to make it happen. From the first design conversation through permitting, installation and the final walkthrough, you deal with one local crew.
Retaining walls are our specialty — but we handle the whole outdoor build, so you are not juggling four contractors.

See the gallery →We walk the site, measure, and look at grade, drainage and soil before quoting anything.
You get materials, layout and a firm written price — no hidden fees and no surprises later.
We handle permitting, excavation, base prep and compaction — the part that decides whether it lasts.
We build, finish, clean the site, and walk the finished work with you before we leave.
Based in Columbia, we know Mid-Missouri clay, freeze-thaw cycles and how water moves on these rolling lots.
Proper footings, geogrid reinforcement and real drainage — the details that separate a 30-year wall from a 5-year one.
From first quote to final walkthrough you know exactly what to expect. No hidden fees.
Permits, site prep, material sourcing and cleanup all handled, so you are not coordinating trades.
Most Columbia homeowners spend roughly $4,000 to $12,000 for a professionally installed 100-foot retaining wall. Where you land depends on four things: the material you choose, how tall the wall has to be, how much excavation and drainage the site needs, and how difficult access is for equipment.
Interlocking block and treated timber sit at the affordable end. Natural stone and taller engineered walls that need geogrid reinforcement and a deeper base cost more — but a wall that holds back a slope is a structure, not decoration, and underbuilding it is how you end up paying twice.
We do not quote walls over the phone, because a real number needs eyes on your grade and your soil. The on-site visit is free and you get a written price whether you hire us or not.
We work throughout Columbia — from the North Village arts district to the rolling ground around Rock Bridge, and neighborhoods like Old Hawthorne, Thornbrook and Lake of the Woods — plus the towns around Boone County.
