Q: Why do retaining walls lean?

• <div><p>Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.</p></div>

Q: Does a 2-foot retaining wall need drainage?

• <div><p>Each design is different, so we can&rsquo;t say definitively if you&rsquo;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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/beginning-home-gardening-guide.htm">outdoor garden projects</a>.</p></div>

Q: How high does a retaining wall have to be?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.</p></div>

Q: Are there decorative options for retaining walls?

• <div><p>Yes, including patterns, finishes, and plant integration for aesthetic enhancement.</p></div>

Q: What is the total cost for demolishing and rebuilding a retaining wall?

• <div><p>Depending on <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-to-hire-retaining-wall.htm">who you hire to build a retaining wall</a>, the average cost, including demolition and reconstruction, for a 50-foot wall that's 4 feet in height is between <b>$7,000 and $24,000</b>.</p></div>

The installers were great. They had to move our furniture to install the carpet ad flooring. There was only one problem. They scratched my new flooring in the living room moving the furniture. However, they replaced the planks that were scratched and I have no complaints.
