"I would like to sing the praises of Alan & Liz's landscaping company, Limitless Landscape. My daughter, Annalies, discovered them online and I am very happy that she did. I had front yard that was very much in need of large-scale repair including collapsing retaining walls on both sides of the driveway. From the beginning of the project, when my daughter & I were expressing what we wanted the vaguest of terms, Liz turned those vague ideas into a design and then a real working plan. Over the course of the project, we made some minor tweaks in the original plan; for those times, we sat down with Liz and Alan and ironed out what was possible and what wasn't. We had good luck with the weather and most days went smoothly with only a couple of rain days in a four-week fall project. With respect to the men who did the work itself, they were terrific. They were friendly. They were responsive when I would make occasional requests during the course of the project: for example, I want to save that old railroad tie but not that one...that type of request. Alan himself was frequently on-site helping/working too. I always felt absolutely secure with the honesty of these gentlemen working; that was important to me after a bad experience in a large window project a few years ago where a theft occurred from inside my house. That incident put me off contracted home repair projects for quite a while. Limitless Landscape has helped restore my confidence in contractors. So, I would heartily recommend Limitless Landscape. They will do a wonderful job for you! Oh and by the way, I'm am continuing to get compliments from the neighbors about my front yard and that makes me happy!"

"We couldn't be happier with our work. It was a very fair price and the work was amazing. Our old retaining wall was rotting and now we have a beautiful stone retaining wall. We will definitely be using them again in the future for any projects."

"Mike and his crew were great!  When the weather cleared, they built a solid wooden 90 degree angle retaining wall rising from over 6 foot in the corner, and flowing down and following the terrain for 45 feet in both directions.  They anchored it well, and filled the cavity with gravel to allow good drainage.  The wall isn't going anywhere!  It took a little over 2 days to complete, but the quality was outstanding.  I wouldn't hesitate using Schmidt Construction again.

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Installation typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the wall’s size and site conditions.

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

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.

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your hardscaping is adding value to your home.
