"Mr.Garza came out to look at the problem the day I called him. He came up with a solution that sounded like the one we were thinking of. He had affordable prices, he was freindly , and he was knowledgeable. I called him the next day and we planned for him to come the next weekend because of bad weather. The following Saturday he came with his crew. They were punctual and nice. They got to work right away and the project was finished. They cleaned up after themselves and everything looked great. Mr.Garza had one of his employees clean the debris that filled the holes. They then packed in hydraulic cement to fill in space and gaps behind the veneer. They then filled in the rest of the wall with CMU blocks and hydraulic cement. They caulked around the outside of the windows. We were very impressed and pleased with Mr.Garza and the work his crew did. We hope to hire them for more work in the future !

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

Options include concrete, stone, brick, and wood, tailored for specific design needs.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.

The longevity of flood walls depends on how they were constructed, but most wood, gravel, and cement flood walls last 10 years. While aluminum flood walls may cost far more initially, they can be a good investment as they can last decades and will not be damaged by exposure to the elements.
