Seating Walls

A seating wall does two jobs: it defines a space and gives you somewhere to sit. We build them 18 to 20 inches high with a comfortable cap, in brick, stone or veneer, curved around a fire pit or straight along a patio edge.

Questions

About seating walls

How high should a seating wall be?

Around 18 to 20 inches is comfortable for most people. We adjust for your family.

Can a seating wall double as a retaining wall?

Sometimes, if it is built to handle the soil. We design that from the start.

Can I add lighting in the wall?

Yes. Low-voltage lights can be built into the cap or face, and we plan the wiring with your electrician.
