"From the beginning Colorado Wall and Daniel, the manager made the project easy for me and the project. He explained the process. The materials are top quality and the price was reasonable. The retaining wall put in my backyard is beautiful and functional. I have to say I am impressed with the results and will hire Colorado Wall for future projects."

"I highly recommend Armando and his team! Heâ s come out to do a variety of projects at our home (building a retaining wall, installing a flagstone patio, updating barriers for mature trees and building up the grading from our home following foundation repairs). Each time, he provides a thorough estimate, clearly communicates timelines and has provided high quality work. We are very pleased with our experiences working with Armando!"

"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."

"Peppers Landscapping was amazing to work with. We had a lot of work done overall; new landscaping, stamped concrete work, gas fire pit install. Gabrielle was up front and provided guidance (pros and cons) to items we were debating about doing. The work came out with such quality and truly could not be happier. One item of note is, we removed the grass and added turf to our yard. Need to compress my photos as they won’t upload :/"

"Timberline Gardens Landscaping did a major construction of a three-tier retaining wall in our back yard area. We were specific on how we wanted the retaining wall be installed including using geogrid to tie back the wall system. We included two sets of steps to two tiers. The result was an exceptional retaining wall. The steps look terrific and provide easy access to two tiers. The crew was helpful in guiding us on the location of the wall installation and did an exceptional work during the installation. The crew was knowledgeableand professional, and their insight was invaluable. Shelly and Judy were patient with our numerous questions prior to and during construction and helped us with many decisions are the project progressed. Great work."

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.

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like. 

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.

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.

Yes, to build a retaining wall, a permit is required. Similarly, any repairs or modifications to an existing retaining wall require permits. If the planned wall measures higher than 4 feet, most municipalities require designs and permits come through a licensed engineer. In some locations, if the wall is shorter than 4 feet, a permit may not be required. For the requirements in your area, contact your local government.
