"Everything went perfectly. Silverstone Landscaping did exactly what I wanted and more. Silverio and his team worked hard and long hours to get my project done. Taking out gravel, building a small retaining wall, putting in DG next to existing pavers. Silverio was very communicative, reasonable and on time. Even my neighbors were impressed about the hard and clean work. I would definitely hire him again. Thank you for a job well done."

"Ike and his team did an outstanding job. We had concrete decking and mastic around our pool that was cracking and needed replacement. They were efficient and expeditious in the way they removed the old concrete, and they were able to lay new decking that was a perfect match with the adjacent concrete. Ike is energetic, attentive, and a joy to work with."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

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

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.

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.

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.
