"Ole and his team worked 3 days in the rain to complete my driveway and sidewalk. He designed the project and it turned out better than the AI that he originally supplied. Hey also put matching edging pavers around my flower beds to tie everything together. It is beautiful and will have them install a firepit on the best future. Excellent work ethic and talent!"

"I had Nichols Concrete come out to do some concrete work, and I couldn?t be more pleased with the results! From start to finish, they were professional, dependable, and did quality work. They showed up when they said they would, communicated with me throughout the process, and made sure everything was done the right way. The finished product looks great, and you can tell they take pride in their work. If you?re looking for a concrete company that does quality work and treats their customers right, I highly recommend Nichols Concrete. I wouldn?t hesitate to use them again for any future projects!"

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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

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.

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.

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.

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.
