"We recently had the unfortunate experience of our upstairs washer leaking through the ceiling below. As first-time homeowners, it was definitely a stressful situation, and we weren't sure where to start. Steven and The Patch Boys were among the first companies we contacted for a quote, and from the beginning, they were professional, honest, and easy to work with. It was great getting to know the team, and it was clear they genuinely cared about providing a quality repair at a fair price rather than simply rushing through the job. The repair process took about two days, and the results were excellent. They repaired the drywall, repainted the affected area, replaced the insulation, and even applied mold inhibitors to help prevent future issues. Several other companies we spoke with never even mentioned those additional preventative measures, which really stood out to us. Overall, it was a smooth and reassuring experience during a stressful time. The workmanship was great, the communi"

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

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. 

Most retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.

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.

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

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.
