"Their bid was extremely well detailed. I know nothing about retaining walls and was able to follow and understand all of their proposal. Their finished work is exactly what I wanted. The crew, AK-crew, was professional and kind. The only issue I had was the waiting period for getting the necessary supplies. I felt that communication was less than expected during that time - but that may only be me. I'll need another retaining wall in my front yard and will be using this company again"

"Acting as our own general contractors,  we interviewed David among the first trades people we considered because of his stellar reviews online, both on Yelp! and here on Angieslist. There was a formidable amount of work to be done between our front and back yards and we wanted to be sure we had the right guy for the job. Others looked at the scope of the work and said they were too busy, and one gave us a quote that was off-the-charts costly while boasting that his would be the best quote of all.
We're sure David was surprised to hear from us so long after his initial visit, but his approach was welcoming, his attitude was professional and the level of detail with which he explained things made us fans from the moment we signed the initial contract. His workmen were unbelievably strong, fast, and exacting as huge cement trucks came and went from in front of our home. Once forms were in place and concrete began being poured, his men had to work fast to trowel each section, knowing we wanted as fine a broom finish as we could get. David was here every day of the job, often having to deal with both my husband and I hovering nearby. Even David's 75-year old father, who taught his son the business, spent days expertly troweling and smoothing our retaining walls and walkways alongside the other workers. It was a thing of beauty to see all this happening, and the first tangible bit of work done to our property after nearly nine months of planning and staring and plans.
As he interpreted the landscape designer's plans, David discussed every element with us, occasionally giving us the option of changing things up, such as raising the wall to 3 feet in some areas and stepping it down to 2 feet in others, where the levels would be more congruent with the nearby grade.
The result is easily the most attractive concrete job in the neighborhood, and as we continue to get the rest of the work done (shade structure, mortarless paver patio, etc.) David's concrete works sets the standard of excellence for all our other contractors.

"We could not be happier with Advanced Pavers & Landscape! From the initial phone call all the way through the completion of our job, they were amazing and made sure everything was perfect. We got pavers, landscaping, and a pergola installed. The quality of workmanship was incredible. Working with Lacy was a dream, she helped us pick our colors and design for the pavers, and trees for the landscaping, and provided the best customer service. Caleb and the entire team were so professional, and we were impressed with how quickly they completed the work. We HIGHLY recommend them and would (are planning to) work with them again."

"Alex and team did a great job with my front yard. He scheduled a start time and was punctual. Installed 5 valves and connected associated sprinkler lines. Installed approx. 5 yards soil then rolled 500 sq ft sod. Next came the spit rail fence. Installed split rail fence to send it to the next level. All this working in nasty sticky clay soil. Job site was cleaned up as if they weren’t there. Thank you Alex and crew. Would definitely hire again."

"These guys were fantastic, from when Mark first came out to meet with me till even after the job was done and paid for. They did it all, excavating, large retaining walls, sprinklers, sod, concrete, hooking up an old waterfall, fences and a very custom gate. Very easy to work with, all my neighbors complement the yard. I went from the worst yard in the neighborhood to what I believe to be the nicest but I m a little biased. I told Mark what I wanted and he gave me some options on what I could do, I couldn t be happier with the job."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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

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.

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

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