"Clay and his guys have done several jobs for us and we were very happy. Replaced our front walkway, landscaped area in backyard, added drainage area with decorative rocks, and repaired rock free standing wall. Their work is top notch and we have referred them to several neighbors."

"fantastic topnotch company! Colin the owner and his crew are honest, hardworking and pay attention to detail. this is the 2nd house we have used them for backyard retaining walls and design. once for a ravine with railroad ties and this week for a huge rock retaining wall 4 ft tall, 130 ft long. they tore down an old wall and designed a new one with natural looking stone with various sizes with drainage system. they also took time to grade and clean up yard. The wall is stunning and the company is outstanding. will use them for complete landscape design."

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sterling’s Affordable Excavating! ! They recently completed an excavating project for me, and the entire experience far exceeded my expectations. From the initial quote through the completion of the job, Casey was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. His attention to detail is truly exceptional. He takes tremendous pride in his work and is an absolute perfectionist, and it shows in the finished product. Every detail was handled with care, and the final result was even better than I had envisioned. I obtained three quotes before choosing Sterling’s Affordable Excavating, and I am extremely confident that I made the right decision\. Not only was the pricing competitive, but the quality of the work, communication, professionalism, and attention to detail set them apart\. It is refreshing to work with a company that genuinely cares about doing the job right and making sure the customer is completely satisfied\. **St"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like. 

Options include concrete, stone, brick, and wood, tailored for specific design needs.

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.

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.
