"Mr. Byrd and his team were excellent. The price was fair and the service was much more than we expected. Carlos, the Project Manager, was meticulous in his work and very friendly. I cannot say enough about the finished project. They installed a retaining wall, as well as installed a French drain and sod. I definitely will call on Byrd Landscaping if we have other projects in the future."

"Great company. I hired them to repair a retaining wall and fire pit that was installed by another company about 5 years ago. Rooted Landscape added the proper drainage that was missed by the original builder. I am very happy with the result. They were prompt for all appointments and kept to the quoted price. I would definitely hire them again if needed."

"David and his team are AMAZING! They took a day and a half to transform most of my backyard! First, they installed a mortared decorative brick edging all around my beds. Next, I had an area that was basically a muddy mess because of too much water sitting around. He cleared that area, laid big, beautiful pavers down for a walkway and filled in the bare areas with river rock! Finally, they laid fresh brown mulch in my beds. Wow!! I have used these guys in the past and I will most definitely be using them in the future. His crew was very knowledgeable, tidy, productive and kind. Any questions I had, they answered and were on point! Finally, David is very fair on pricing. He’s thorough and is quick to return phone calls and text messages. I love my new backyard and I didn’t have to pay an arm and a leg like some of the other landscape companies out there."

"Mike is the ideal handyman: Responsive, knowledgeable, prompt, trustworthy, a good communicator, and a fair pricer. I will use him again. Before doing multiple small jobs at my house, Mike sent over a very professional and clear quote. I checked his pricing with my brother in law, whoâ s a general contractor, and he confirmed it was fair. Once I hired him, Mike was ready to do the job within days. He fixed the door closer on my front glass door and installed six new smoke detectors. The job was quick and done right."

"GP Hardscape Pavers did an absolutely gorgeous job of creating a patio with a sitting wall and built in grill! We had many companies come out to advise us what we could do with a wet muddy area right off of our screen porch. Each one advised the only thing to do was to make a dry creek. Iraci from GP came out and drew out exactly what we had in mind! She brought samples of pavers, wall material, and granite, and worked with us every step of the way. The end result is exactly as we pictured! We sit out there now every morning with our coffee and love it! Definitely would highly recommend GP Hardscape Pavers to anyone!"

"This company is awesome. Jeff was my design consultant. He listened keenly to what I wanted and added his magic. He is easy to work with and whatever he says he will do he does it. I landscaped my backyard and front. Made a fire smokeless fire pit with stones and a brick patio, retaining walls, steps and new sod. My family and I are very happy with the end result of the project. Jeff and his men work very fast. They finished the project when he said they would. I would definitely recommend them and will only use them for any outdoor projects I may have in the future. Thank you Jeff and your team."

"BY THE YARD placed a stone fascia on our home that not only repaired a cracked retaining wall and a failing foundation, but also gave our home an aesthetically pleasing overhaul. We received complements from our neighbors. Their work crew, led by Brett Benton, were professional, timely and very helpful with work scope recommendations. I highly recommend them."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

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.

Generally, a railroad tie retaining wall consisting of a single line of ties should be between 3 and 4 feet tall—and the height often tops out at around 6 feet. You can go taller, but you may need additional footings and reinforcements, including a second layer of railroad ties to support the added weight of the soil it’s holding back.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its material, installation quality, maintenance, and local climate, with an average range of 20 to 100 years. Retaining walls made from durable materials like concrete, stone, and brick generally last a minimum of 50 years. Concrete walls typically last between 50 and 100 years, while brick can last for over a century in ideal conditions. Timber retaining walls can last from 20 to 40 years, depending on the wood quality, and pressure-treated wood walls average around 30 years. It is important to note that a retaining wall can fail prematurely if it was poorly constructed, for example, with inefficient footings or without necessary rebar reinforcements.
