"I cannot sing praises enough. I have finally found a company that does what it promises when it promises. I already have plans to hire them again. I had damaged concrete decking that had to be broken out and repoured. No damage to any surrounding areas. Work was done timely and professionally. Additional wood reworking done seamlessly"

"We are super happy with their quality of work. We had originally hired them for a bathroom project, (ceramic tile, molding, painting, and plumbing). We loved the end result. We have continued to use their service on a regular basis for lawn care, pool maintenance, pressure washing, gutter repair, and shutter painting. We are so grateful that we have found these amazing people. I highly recommend them for any home project that you might have. They are also awesome people. Very easy to communicate with and very friendly. Their prices are very reasonable too."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, 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.

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.

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.

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. 

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.
