"Couldn't be happier with Matt and his team. Extremely courteous, responsive and efficient, they went the extra mile when I contacted them for a couple of drywall repairs. Once in my unit, they identified a couple of extra areas that needed attention and insisted on cleaning those up too - at no extra charge. The work itself was done very conscientiously, with great care, craftsmanship, and consideration for keeping my home and furnishings clean and protected. Matt is a great resource - extremely experienced and straightforward. I was particularly impressed that - even though he brought one of his team to do the work at my particular job - Matt himself came out to do the initial assessment, and came back the morning the work was to be done to personally walk his worker through the job. I really appreciate this personal, hands-on approach. Great experience! Will hire again, and definitely recommend."

"Enrique and his team tackled a number of small to medium size projects from painting to door frame repair to drywall removal and replacement. The team was on time each day and ensured that the days task list was completed before leaving for the day. They ensured the work areas were organized and cleaned after each day. They were professional, easy to work with and their pricing was competitive. Would highly recommend them for any general construction or handyman projects you have."

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your hardscaping is adding value to your home.

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.

Most retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.

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.
