"Everything went very well. A little bit of a late start due to scheduling issues workload they were under but it was all understandable. They are in high demand and sometimes during a project unforeseen issues arise that they have to deal with. This can cause delays in starting jobs for other customers. I respect the fact that they will take care of the customer when these unforeseen issues occur. The remodeled my kitchen with new cabinets, celling, painting, wall removal, flooring and painting. Everything came out very well and we are very pleased with our new kitchen. I would highly recommend. Thank you Lee, Dean"

Small jobs welcome

"We found Martinez Concrete by chance on Facebook while looking for someone to repair the concrete around our pool and driveway, and we?re so glad we did! We had contacted a couple of other companies, but one gave us a high estimate with a ?take it or leave it? attitude, and another was slow to respond. Martinez and his wife came out the same evening we contacted them and provided an estimate the next day. Now that?s service! We explained that our new fence was scheduled to go in the following week, and we wanted the demolition completed beforehand to avoid damaging it. Their crew showed up Saturday AND Sunday?yes, Sunday!?to get it done. That allowed the fence installers to complete their work, and Martinez returned afterward to pour the concrete. Like many projects, ours started small, but we kept adding to it because we were so impressed with the quality of their work. Before we knew it, we needed a concrete pump truck! The pictures don?t do it justice, and we haven?t even had i"

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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

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.

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.

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

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.
