"Augusta’s Finest Hardscapes installed a retaining wall in my backyard. Will and his crew did an excellent job. They were very professional, polite, and friendly. He did exactly what he said he would do. I love the wall and will definitely use Will again."

"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 guys at C&A took on a colossal project that it seemed no one else wanted to do. They worked through the harshest elements in February to complete the task. They leveled my property, installed a french drain, and built a retaining wall. They were professional and did a remarkable job. I would highly recommend them for any landscaping/developing jobs."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

There are contractors specifically trained in the design and construction of retaining walls. Retaining wall contractors are skilled at dealing with the soil on your property and assessing what kind of drainage should be installed. They will recommend the best materials to use for the project and can handle the processing of permits by local authorities.

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.

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.

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.  

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.
