"Highly recommended; absolutely no complaints! They did what they said they would do; no hidden costs, no unexplained delays, they showed up when they said they would & told me when they would be leaving. They answered my many questions with knowledge, patience & helpful suggestions. The work was excellent, better than i dreamed. They were respectful, courteous & totally responsible. They were even kind to my dog, who had to inspect everything. :-)"

"They did an amazing job on our fence! I called them a week ago and they got the job done in one week from the time he done the estaminet. The pricing was reasonable and the job was done fantastic. My fiancé and I have nothing but good words to say and we are both beyond happy with the results. We have to large dogs who like to dig and they even filled in the holes so that was plus too!"

"Highly recommend them for concrete and block work. We used them for our doublewide mobile home footers and block installation plus the vapor barrier. We have already hired them for the concrete work we wanted next. Don't hesitate to get a quote! They drove an hour and a half to quote and do this job."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.

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. 

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.

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.
