"Armando does great work and is fantastic to work with. He and his team cleared out our back and front yards and installed a retaining wall out front. The wall matches the house great and looks like it has always been there. Can not recommend highly enough!"

"After our neighbor’s recommendation we hired D & D Tree Service & Landscape to build a fence for our backyard. We are extremely pleased with their work and the company. Everyone was extremely efficient and professional. Our new fence is beautiful. We have also decided to hire them to install a sprinkler system and sod in the backyard."

"This was Gabe’s 2nd project with us in the last two years, and once again he and his crews knocked it out of the park. They installed a stamped concrete sidewalk, as well as a stamped concrete addition to our driveway, (grass replacement), that also ran all the way into the backyard with new steps and incorporated some geodesics stylings as well. Additionally they replaced our entire back yard with astroturf, (more grass replacement). We couldn’t be happier with the results and will continue to highly recommend Peppers Landesign for their planning, products, and installations."

"Rich Che and the CNS Empire Landscape crew did fabulous improvements on our family home in Wheat Ridge. They corrected drainage on three sides of an addition so water flows away from the house instead of into the crawlspace; replaced 30 feet of exit pipe from the perimeter drain around the foundation of the addition; installed new sod; and removed weeds from landscaped rock areas in the front yard. The improvements look great. Shortly afterwards, I engaged an inspector to check the foundation. The inspector said he visits about 400 houses each year, and this drainage remediation is among the best he’s seen."

"Great looking variegated-colored block wall. They worked well with me and my ideas on the process of how to build the wall that I wanted. I was satisfied with the wall work that I am having them do a second project."

"As Fernando said to me, We are a well oiled machine and indeed they are. I'm very happy with the results. The crew worked fast but efficiently. Our project was a frontyard short retaining wall and a replacement backyard patio using BELGARD pavers."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.

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.

Yes, you can use cinder blocks for many purposes, including retaining walls, foundations, garage walls, and fences. Building a cinder block retaining wall costs between $60 and $200 per linear foot, including materials and professional labor. For a 30-foot-long retaining wall, the cost ranges from $1,800 to $6,000.
