"This man ripped my mother off, he took her $1250 down payment which was half of the cost he quoted. He never provided receipts for the supposed $750 worth of mulch he claimed to buy. When she asked for her money back he got defensive and said he would give it back when he found someone else who needed that much mulch. He was supposed to return the money on 5/9/25 but then said he was in Mexico. He has sent my mom threatening messages about me writing the previous negative review. Now he is not answering our calls. HE IS A FRAUD, I HAVE SPOKEN TO OTHER OLDER WOMEN WHO HE HAS DONE THIS TO!!! PLEASE BEWARE OF THIS SCAM ARTIST. His initial response was I don't need you guys' money. So where is it then? He sent my mother texts demanding that she sign paperwork that his lawyer drafted stating that he returned the money, because "you people" might lie on me. He is a liar and has NOT RETURNED MY MOM'S MONEY. He has changed his company name too, it was L&Q Landscaping I believe. Please avoid this scammer."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.

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.

Yes, to build a retaining wall, a permit is required. Similarly, any repairs or modifications to an existing retaining wall require permits. If the planned wall measures higher than 4 feet, most municipalities require designs and permits come through a licensed engineer. In some locations, if the wall is shorter than 4 feet, a permit may not be required. For the requirements in your area, contact your local government.

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.  

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.
