"Adrian was very helpful with selecting the materials . He was on point while work was performed and completed on time like he said. When they left they removed all unused material and left no mess. I highly recommend Adrian for patio work!"

"The owner came out to see the job within an hour of the call. I was emailed the quote that evening and they started the job the next day. I was excited that this is a female owner that has been a brick mason for over 12 years. Her team was experienced, hard working and extremely pleasant to work with. My neighbors have commented on how beautiful the results of the workmanship. Four of my neighbors asked for the company number. One neighbor actually called for brick work on Monday and they completed his job right away."

"They are a newer company so they are still finding their footing in the industry. They are a bit rough around the edges but are all great people. They listened to what I wanted. Offered suggestions and worked together as a team to do what needed done. Their work quality was great and the only delays we had were due to bad weather. They communicated well and overall I had a great experience. I would certainly recommend them to anyone I spoke to."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.  

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

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.
