"I needed a retaining wall replaced. Jim was attentive through the entire process. Jim communicated by email, text and phone, and never left me "wondering" or waiting. The wall came out beautiful, and strong. Oh- and I was out of town through the entire process, and Jim and his team did not disappoint - not even a little. I will contact Augusta Land Design first for my future landscaping projects."

"Purchased a home 7 months ago and the previous homeowners/home inspector did not disclose previous water issues in the crawl space. With the recent heavy rains our crawl space flooded and after speaking with several locals (as we are new to the area) Chris and his team were overwhelmingly recommended. Not only did Chris identify the previous issues, he gave us a solution! The crew was on the job early, were very professional, and did an amazing job. They left our crawlspace clean and finished the job just in time. Within 2 days we had heavy rain again and with the system installed our crawlspace was dry! Thank you guys and we truly appreciate your hard work! We highly recommend Riggins Moisture Control!"

"The team worked tirelessly to do post-Hurricane Helene cleanup of our yard, bringing in truckloads of dirt, and leveling the area. Charles also built a French drain and small wall. All the work was excellent."

"Above Average Concrete truly lives up to their name! They installed stamped concrete in my driveway, and the results are absolutely beautiful. From start to finish, William’s team was professional, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented. They took the time to explain the process, answered all my questions, and made sure everything was done exactly how I envisioned it. The craftsmanship is top-tier—the stamping is clean, the design is flawless, and it completely elevated the look of my home. They showed up on time, worked efficiently, and left the area clean once the job was finished. You can tell they take pride in their work. If you’re looking for quality concrete work and want something that stands out, I highly recommend Above Average Concrete. I couldn’t be happier with my new driveway!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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

Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.

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.  

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.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.
