"We are 100% satisfied with Paramount Pavers and Construction through the entire process, from quote to job completion. They contacted us promptly to schedule a time to discuss our needs and in person. We received a detailed quote within one work day. The job was scheduled and completed promptly, and we are very happy with the quality of their work - the retaining wall looks exactly as we hoped. We are also very happy with the care that was taken to keep their work area clean with drop cloths and to haul away debris from the job."

"I hired MVP to build a new retaining wall after our old one started to fail. They assessed the situation, explained the options clearly, and gave us a fair quote. Once work began, they stayed on track and delivered exactly what they promised. The finished wall looks great and feels solid. It’s such a relief to have it done right. Highly recommended for any structural or landscape wall projects!"

"The courtyard between the driveway and the front yard needed resurfacing. interlocking pavers were chosen to improve walking access and create a visual pattern. They measured precisely to maintain even spacing, compacted, and installed the edging. Approximately 1,250 square feet were covered, including small planting borders. The layout allows multiple circulation paths while keeping the design simple. its practical for daily use and provide a defined area for outdoor furniture."

"CHR completely remodeled our old 1950's kitchen. Even though it is a small kitchen, it was a complex job, due to the layout change, sub-floor and window replacement, as well as extending one of the walls. Kris, the project manager, did an excellent job coordinating the work as well as helping out with design features. The job was completed timely (despite city inspection delays) and without issues. We're over the moon with our new kitchen and happy to have selected CHR for the job."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Generally, a railroad tie retaining wall consisting of a single line of ties should be between 3 and 4 feet tall—and the height often tops out at around 6 feet. You can go taller, but you may need additional footings and reinforcements, including a second layer of railroad ties to support the added weight of the soil it’s holding back.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

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.

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.

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional installation ensures structural integrity and durability for larger walls.
