"Frank was fantastic! We had a bluestone patio installed in our backyard under the pergola, but needed to have it extended. Our original contractor was unwilling to come back for the small project. We are so grateful we found Frank! Not only was he an exceptionally detailed contractor, but when he wasn’t happy with the look of one of the stone cuts, he replaced it. Much gratitude for his great work!"

"They came in a timely manner, were courteous, did great work, fixing a leak in a sprinkler pipe, where the location of the leak was not clear. Very reasonably priced. Came back for a follow up (not directly related to the original work), also very timely. They were recommended by Angi. I'm in Longmont. MSH will definitely be my first stop for the next time I need a Landscaper."

"From initial project conception through construction, working with Mr. Krenger has been an absolute pleasure. Never before have I hired such a responsive and prompt Contractor who never made me feel like I was being taken advantage of. All of that is great, but it is the second-to-none quality workmanship that will make me hire Krenger Construction again for my next landscaping project."

"Alex and his crew did a terrific job on our yard in Windsor. He extended our back patio (poured concrete), laid sod, rock and breeze, planted trees, and installed sprinklers and drip line. His crew works very quickly and had our entire yard done in just a few days. We would highly recommend his work and professionalism."

Retaining Wall Installers 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.

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.

Proper design and construction prevent erosion and add structural stability to landscapes.

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.

They prevent soil erosion, add flat space, and enhance property aesthetics.
