"David Morris Concrete is absolutely remarkable!! They are the best around for sure! I interviewed many contractors, and reviewed several bids, and theirs is the one I chose, and I am SO GLAD I DID!! They did everything just right, every step of the way! Their attention to detail was exceptional, and everyone on the crew was too! I actually had two phases of concrete, and they were consistently amazing all the way through, from the start to the finish! Pick David Morris Concrete! You will be glad you did!!"

"We just moved into our new home in Sacramento and as you know these new build houses are bare bones when it comes to landscaping! Yasmine came out to do our estimate and ultimately we chose her and Forever Green as our landscaper. I am so impressed with her professionalism and vast knowledge on landscaping options! She guided us the entire process and was prompt with her communication! I’m so happy with my new backyard!!"

"Ignacio and Kathi were extremely knowledgeable and helpful in the process of building our BBQ island. Instead of a cookie cutter pre fab unit, they constructed a custom island that fit our patio perfectly. They made some good suggestions and helped with the choices along the way. Everyone on their team was professional, polite and capable. The work was done on time and looks great!!! I highly recommend Grande Construction."

"We couldn't be happier. Jamie and his crew were outstanding. They removed old turf, rototilled in compost, installed a new sprinkler system and an underground drain and then installed Bolero sod. They showed up every day and worked nonstop until the job was completed. Jaime's attention to detail is amazing."

"My experience was all I could have hoped for. The responses were prompt, schedules were kept, and the work was done efficiently and on time. Mark was open to all of my ideas, and we were in sync from the beginning. The work was done in two days, and both teams (site preparation and the installation) were fantastic. And the finished project looks perfect!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

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.

Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.
