They are typically made from concrete blocks. Building retaining wall corners can be a tricky DIY home improvement project. However, you can definitely tackle this project with the right tools, preparation, and by following step-by-step instructions.<\/p>\n<p>Homeowners should carefully consider the type of block to buy for your retaining wall design. This is because the type of block used determines how you can build your corners and curves. Some types of blocks come with corner units that make the job simple, and others are finished on all sides, leaving the corners exposed. When choosing blocks, make sure you have the tools and instructions for whatever corners, curves, or special circumstances you have in mind.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some tips for tackling corners in your DIY retaining wall project.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">One-Sided Blocks<\/h2>\n<p>The most common blocks for retaining walls are textured only on one side, with a lip at the back that presses against the row under it. They\u2019re often wedge-shaped to allow for turns and curves. This type of block is designed more for curves than sharp corners, since only one side of the block is meant to show.<\/p>\n<p>To construct retaining wall corners using wedge-shaped blocks:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Outside Corners:<\/strong> Most retaining wall outside corners built with wedge-shaped blocks are curved, rather than at a 90\u00b0 angle. This is because it\u2019s impossible to make an outside corner without showing the cut, smooth end of the blocks. Wedge-shaped blocks are easily laid in a curve, or you can cut the sides of rectangular blocks to achieve the same curved effect.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inside Corners:<\/strong> It\u2019s easier to build 90\u00b0 angle inside corners with wedge-shaped blocks, since the backs and sides of the blocks won\u2019t show. Start the first course of blocks in the corner, then overlap the joints in each additional row of blocks, cutting any odd-sized blocks to fit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full wp-image-25688\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"510\" height=\"250\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"Retaining wall with 90\u00b0 square corner\" class=\"wp-image-25688 lazyload\" data-lazy-data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-2.jpg 510w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-2-400x196.jpg 400w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-2-230x113.jpg 230w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-2-100x49.jpg 100w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 510px) 100vw, 510px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-2.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"510\" height=\"250\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-2.jpg\" alt=\"Retaining wall with 90\u00b0 square corner\" class=\"wp-image-25688 lazyload\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-2.jpg 510w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-2-400x196.jpg 400w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-2-230x113.jpg 230w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-2-100x49.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 510px) 100vw, 510px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">For 90\u00b0 angle outside corners, use blocks that are finished on two or more sides.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Corner Units<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re using stackable blocks that are only textured on one side, the best solution is to choose a block system that comes with corner units. The cornerstones are finished on two sides and connect to the adjoining blocks to form a 90-degree angle.<\/p>\n<p>Each system is designed differently, so each type of corner unit will have slightly different installation instructions. In general, you\u2019ll start at the corner and work your way out. The corner block from the second course of blocks should alternate in direction from the base course, and should continue to alternate for the next course, and so on. With this method, you may need to cut stones to fit the desired length of your wall. For this, you will need a chisel.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full wp-image-25689\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"510\" height=\"250\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"Drawing of blocks being laid on 90\u00b0 angle retaining wall corner\" class=\"wp-image-25689 lazyload\" data-lazy-data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-3.jpg 510w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-3-400x196.jpg 400w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-3-230x113.jpg 230w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-3-100x49.jpg 100w\" data-lazy-data-sizes=\"(max-width: 510px) 100vw, 510px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-3.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"510\" height=\"250\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-3.jpg\" alt=\"Drawing of blocks being laid on 90\u00b0 angle retaining wall corner\" class=\"wp-image-25689 lazyload\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-3.jpg 510w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-3-400x196.jpg 400w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-3-230x113.jpg 230w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/how-build-retaining-wall-corner-3-100x49.jpg 100w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 510px) 100vw, 510px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Use masonry adhesive when constructing a 90 degree corner on a retaining wall.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Multisided Blocks<\/h2>\n<p>If your retaining wall blocks are rectangular and finished on at least two sides (like many pavers and cinder blocks), you can easily stack them to create a corner.

You\u2019ll want to have a shovel and spade, level, tape measure, a hammer, or mallet, a chisel, and safety gear. Helpful tools include a wheelbarrow to move the heavy blocks and supplies, string line, and stakes, and a gravel rake.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<hr class=\"my-2\"\/>\n<div class=\"hm-faq__item\">\n<h3 class=\"faqQuestion accordion mb-0\">\n                        How to cut retaining wall block for corners?                    <\/h3>\n<div class=\"faqAnswer panel\">\n<p>Cutting retaining wall blocks for corners is an important skill for creating a clean, professional-looking finish. You\u2019ll want to start by measuring and marking the cut line on the block with a pencil or chalk. For outside corners, you\u2019ll typically cut the block at a 45-degree angle. For inside corners, you may need to cut two blocks to fit together.<\/p>\n<p>For concrete blocks, use a circular saw with a diamond blade or a masonry saw. For softer materials like landscape blocks, a chisel and hammer method will likely work. You should always wear safety goggles, a dusk mask, and hearing protection when cutting materials.<\/p>\n<p>Place the block on a stable surface, and if using a power saw, set the depth to slightly more than the thickness of the block. If using a power saw, guide the saw along the marked line. If using a chisel, score along the cut line deeply, then use controlled strikes to split the block.<\/p>\n<p>You can use a masonry chisel to clean up any rough edges left behind, and then test the piece to make sure it fits.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<hr class=\"my-2\"\/>\n<div class=\"hm-faq__item\">\n<h3 class=\"faqQuestion accordion mb-0\">\n                        What are retaining walls used for?                    <\/h3>\n<div class=\"faqAnswer panel\">\n<p>Retaining walls serve several important purposes in landscaping and construction.
