"I had two retaining walls updated from wood to stone and they both turned out wonderful. The design, installation and workmanship were all excellent. Additionally, I had some general landscaping done. They are great communicators and a pleasure to work with."

"This company did an amazing job in with our backyard patio, which is why we hired them again for another paver job. There work is perfect and they are honest, kind, and a joy to work with. I will definitely hire them a third time when we need more patio work."

"Alberto and his team arrived ready to work. They graded the area, removed two trees, laid a brick border wall and mulch. They removed the debris and cleaned up when they finished. The space looks so much better than it did before. Thank you AB Landscaping!! I would definitely hire this company again!"

"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 has a meticulous work ethic. Willing to consider any job, big or small. He explains what needs to be done and then he follows through on what he says. He gives an estimate of each project and sticks to it. He is a talented craftsman and was able to repair many things including roof repair, weather stripping, painting, CO2 detector install, replacing custom cut moulding, lock repair, replacement of door sweeps, and he replaced the fence post caps that the squirrels had destroyed as well as other things I could never get anyone to help me with. He made appointment times and always showed up! He is a gem. I highly recommend him."

"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

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

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.

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.

Regular inspection for issues like cracks or leaning and ensuring drainage stays clear.

With foundation walls, the slab on grade and force at the top of the wall is resisted by flooring. With retaining walls, the force at the top of the wall is not resisted.
