"Rose Stone Concrete and Restoration delivered as promised! From the first call until the jobs were finished Rose kept me informed. Hubbard went out of his way to best match the brick needed to replace my old beaten down mailbox. The estimates were fair and very reasonable. He completed the work in the timeframe estimated. The job he did is stunning! I can?t keep from staring at it. From the time he finished and pulled away my neighbors have been stopping by to ask about it and is admiring his work as well as the work effort shown. I feel like I have new found friends as well as a professional company that will get things done without the runaround. They did what they promised and then some. I highly recommend them as I will be using them again as well. They did two jobs for me and both are flawless. Pros at work indeed! Hire them, I promise you won?t be disappointed because of the love and care they put into their work. Hubbard and Rose made sure I was satisfied every step of the way. The attention to detail and the quality of work is to be commended. I have a beautiful new brick mailbox and brick front steps that are amazing! I couldn?t be happier and I am forever grateful. Thank you Rose Stone Concrete and Restoration!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its material, installation quality, maintenance, and local climate, with an average range of 20 to 100 years. Retaining walls made from durable materials like concrete, stone, and brick generally last a minimum of 50 years. Concrete walls typically last between 50 and 100 years, while brick can last for over a century in ideal conditions. Timber retaining walls can last from 20 to 40 years, depending on the wood quality, and pressure-treated wood walls average around 30 years. It is important to note that a retaining wall can fail prematurely if it was poorly constructed, for example, with inefficient footings or without necessary rebar reinforcements.

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.

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.

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.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.
