"Came out and repaired my pool cracks and recoated pool. We had some issues with the recoat and he came back out and fixed it up the next day. The pool is looking great and now we just need to wait for curing before we can fill it back up. Quick service at a fair price. I would recommend!"

"Andres and his workers were amazing—so much so I referred him to other neighbors who then used him! Friendly, efficient, timely and listened to our wants and needs. He extended our California patio, installed a putting green, poured concrete sidewalk and widened my driveway. He also planted trees, bushes and vines. He also installed our purchased waterfall. We love our little oasis!!"

"Jesus will be my permanent Fix-it guy from now on. Wonderful work, detailed so fine he finished my cabinets with a brush you use for painting pictures. His workers are just as professional, but as friendly as him. They not only did a wonderful job, but understood my limitations and not only did the neccessary work, but made sure with my handicap, that it worked for ME! They cleaned up and left my house and yard cleaner than when he came. Not only that, but because the doggie door he was to install didn't have a lock, he used the old door and fashioned a lock for the new one, and didn't charge extra. He told me it would take a week, but they finished in 4 days. They came early, left late, and did a job that I am so pleased with, that I recommend his company to everyone."

Wall Repair 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.

With foundation walls, the slab on grade and force at the top of the wall is resisted by flooring. With retaining walls, the force at the top of the wall is not resisted.

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

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.

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.
