"Rob was great he fixed our issue with the Dryer vent and also pointed out an issue with our the furnace and hot water tank venting system that was repaired with metal tapping of the edges without additional charge. He was on time and very nice to work with. Have him coming back to work on the chimney roof vent and give us a quote."

"Hired to replace 2 window screens on the second story of our home. Val found another one that needed replacing, and he did that one too, for no additional charge. He also fixed our kitchen light so that it stopped blinking when we first turned it on. Friendly, courteous, punctual and professional. Will be hiring again."

Customers say: Quick response

"We recently hired Lara Home Improvement to paint the exterior of our house and tackle a few lingering handyman projects, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial quote to the final walk-through, they were professional, communicative, and extremely detail-oriented. The paint job looks flawless—they took the time to properly prep the exterior and cleaned up meticulously at the end of each day. They also fixed some issues with the soffits, which saved me the hassle of hiring a second contractor. Fair pricing, honest work, and exceptional quality. I highly recommend them!"

Wall Repair 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.

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.

Depending on who you hire to build a retaining wall, the average cost, including demolition and reconstruction, for a 50-foot wall that's 4 feet in height is between $7,000 and $24,000.

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

Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.
