"The wall looks AMAZING! I previously had rail road ties in place of a sturdy wall and the difference in appearance is unbelievable. The yard looks 100x better with the new retaining wall. They finished the wall in a short amount of time and provided a detailed break down of all costs which I really appreciated."

"They built a well established retaining wall with flagstone rock. Definitely the best work I have seen hands down when it comes to hardscapes. Highly Recommend!!"

"I had a retaining wall that leads to the outside entrance to my basement the was collapsing. Rob and his team at Serene Aqua assessed the damage, discussed my options, and gave me a quote within 24 hours of contacting them. Based on their recommendation (best materials to build and reinforce wall) I had a new retaining wall just a few days later. I am so pleased with the work and the overall professionalism that I highly recommend Serene Aqua. Rob has a creative vision that help uncreative people like myself. The photo I'm submitting is prior to final completion but you'll see the great job they did to replace the dangerous mess I had."

"Travis is the only guy who I’ll call. He knows exactly what he is doing; I originally was introduced to him to take care of a complicated retaining wall that was falling apart due to drainage issues. He is kind, thoughtful, very skillful, and really takes serious pride in his work and craftsmanship. Absolutely recommended."

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.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.

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.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

Yes, including patterns, finishes, and plant integration for aesthetic enhancement.
