"We contracted them on a handshake. They came in and removed a large area of gumbo clay, installed a solid base and the stone cutting was intricate and impressive. Within 10 days they gave us and the future owners of our home. This family of hard workers never let us down. Then they went above and beyond with follow up visits and answered questions after the installation. I had concerns about winters damage. They answered and winter came and left with zero damage and the patio is our go to place when the weather isn't offensive."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional installation ensures structural integrity and durability for larger walls.

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.

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.

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.
