Very impressed when the owner came out twice once for the measurement and planning. The second time for costs, landscaping. They weren't the cheapest, but I was impressed the personal care in detail.

They’ve done landscaping where I work. I checked around a little and I liked what they did. They did a good job and I am very pleased with it. It looks nice. I wanted it done right the first time and that’s what they did. I didn’t want something to happen to it in two years; I wanted...

I had been wanting the retaining wall for about 2 years, but the estimates I was receiving was a little scary (like $5,000). I contacted Jared with Aftermath Landscaping, he came over that day and gave me a very affordable estimate. I bought the large 17"W X 8"H blocks, gravel, and caps for...

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Vinyl retaining walls are often the least expensive type of retaining wall, at $10 to $15 per square foot. This budget-friendly material is lightweight and durable, but it doesn’t have many decorative options. Untreated timber and railroad ties are the next step up, and start at $15 to $25 per square foot, respectively. High-end steel or natural stone tend to be the least wallet-friendly, but they’re extremely durable and come with a high-end look.

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

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its particular material, whether it was properly installed, how well it’s maintained, and your local climate. Concrete, stone, and brick retaining walls last the longest, with concrete lasting between 50 and 100 years on average. Brick tends to last the longest, with a minimum of one century, under the right conditions.

Timber retaining walls can start to deteriorate at 20 years, depending on the wood quality, but in the best case, they can last 40 years. Pressure-treated wood retaining walls last 30 years on average.
