"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."

"The men that did the work related to the prepping the yard for the retaining wall, placing the rock and pavers for the walkway did a very good job and it really looked nice. I've worked in construction and building maintenance for over 50 years, so I know what's good workmanship and what's poor. The worker who did the framing for the new sidewalk, steps and porch was poor workmanship. Nothing was level or straight and I had to have the other crew correct the forms before concrete was poured. The guys that finished the concrete did an excellent job. Never let D&D workers connect the lawn sprinkler piping to your house water piping. They seem to be handymen, not real plumbers. Beside not installing necessary valves and fittings to winterizing the sprinkler system, all the copper pipe was installed crooked, under stress and not supported correctly. Overall, half the crew did very good work, the other half needs training."

"I recently had two retaining walls built on our property by Gabe @ Peppers Landesign Services, and after the heavy storms we've experienced, I can confidently say that they exceeded every expectation. The retaining walls performed flawlessly, they are beautiful and handled a tremendous amount of water without any issues at all. It's obvious that the project was designed and built with quality, craftsmanship and attention to detail. The entire team was professional, knowledgeable, and great to work with from start to finish. It's reassuring to know we made the right investment and we're incredible grateful for the outstanding work. If you're looking for a landscape contractor who stands behind their work and delivers exceptional results, I highly recommend Gabe and his team. Thanks for a job very well done!"

"Shelly and her crew just finished landscaping my old, overgrown and weedy front and side yards. I found her to be extremely knowledgable, professional, on time and great to work with. She delivered not only the job but also the estimate when she said she would. They tore out our old landscaping and bushes, prepared the soil for new plantings, installed a low water irrigation system, pathway through the yard, a few boulders, rock, mulch and 35 small bushes. She worked with us on price which was important to us, too. I would not hesitate to use her again and neither should you!"

"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."

"Tony and his team were phenomenal! He built 7 tall 36X36 stone columns to match our home stone. The fence surrounded our property line (over 300 feet) He was easy to work with. He recommended a couple of subs to complete the fencing and they respect and represent Tony to perfection. Great work by everyone. I would hire them again in a second."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.

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.

A retaining wall can only function as a fence if it’s high enough on all sides to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the pool. However, most retaining walls retain dirt, which means their purpose is not related to safety. There would need to be nothing on the other side of the wall for it to be considered a fence, but in that case, it wouldn’t retain anything and would cease to be a retaining wall.  

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.
