"Sandstone Construction was Great, we had them demo out backyard, go deeper into our hillside and installed a 120 ft retaining wall, fireplace , bar & BBQ area , and new patio cove with all new concrete for the patio and around the pool. They work fast and are very clean. We did have a problem in one small area with drainage after they poured the concrete, but Kyle and his crew came back and made it right, that shows a lot of integrity. We LOVE out backyard now! Thanks Kyle!"

"I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional work performed by Vega Landscape on my recent hardscape and landscape project. From the initial consultation with the owner, Nick Vega, to the final reveal, the entire experience was nothing short of outstanding.  Nick's design consultation was incredibly insightful as he took the time to listen to my vision and offered creative and innovative solutions that exceeded my expectations. From beautifully poured concrete, smooth stucco walls, IPE wood fencing, artificial turf installation and modern pavers, the execution was flawless with impeccable craftsmanship. And let's not forget the plants! The plants Nick chose were everything I wanted and more, especially because I love seeing birds, bees and butterflies in my front and back yard. The final result has completely transformed my outdoor space. It is now a stunning and functional extension of my home, perfect for hanging out and enjoying the outdoors. The project significantly increased the curb appeal of my home and created a more private and relaxing outdoor living space. I am incredibly grateful to Vega Landscape for their expertise, professionalism, and dedication to creating such a beautiful and enduring space. I highly recommend Vega Landscape to anyone considering a hardscape or landscape project. They are truly the best in the business. I particularly appreciated Nick's consistent involvement throughout the entire project, from the initial design to the final completion."

"He did a great job installing sod in the backyard and a patch in the front yard when I was under a time crunch due to selling the house and urgently having to resolve an HOA violation before hand. Very responsive, and he was able to work around the fact that our streets were being repaved the same day by parking way down the street. Strongly recommend."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.

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

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.

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like. 

A retaining wall can only function as a fence if it’s high enough on all sides to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the pool. However, most retaining walls retain dirt, which means their purpose is not related to safety. There would need to be nothing on the other side of the wall for it to be considered a fence, but in that case, it wouldn’t retain anything and would cease to be a retaining wall.
