"I had an old external door that was broken. Bob replaced the door and did a great job around the broken concrete and dry wall. It was a small project but it went really well. I am happy with the new door."

"Ben re-pointed my basement stone walls. He arrived when he said he would, was extremely professional and hardworking, and ultimately did even more work than we had originally discussed -- all for the original quote. His work is careful and well done. He shared some helpful advice as well. I would highly recommend him."

"Jeff arrived on-time and gave a thorough assessment of the situation and recommendations on how to address. We were particularly impressed with his advice on how to not only repair the wall, but save the tree in the process, in a way that would not compromise the wall in the future. He was incredibly upfront and direct about which portions of the job needed to be done, and would cost extra, and which parts were completely unnecessary and would be a waste of money. The whole time his demeanor was pleasant and professional and he was very generous with addressing questions that came up after his visit. We will not be able to undertake the job this year after all, but he would have been our first choice to do the work."

Customers say: True professional

"I've used many plasterers over the years on construction projects and Allesandro and his team are top-notch. Totally customer-driven and focused and great attention to detail and communication with me. I will use them again soon on another project and hope to have a long-term relationship with Allesandro and his team. In addition, Allesandro's team members are all hard-working, prompt, courteous, good guys. I recommend AOS Drywall with enthusiasm."

Wall Repair FAQs, answered by experts

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.

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

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.

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’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 outdoor garden projects.

Yes, to build a retaining wall, a permit is required. Similarly, any repairs or modifications to an existing retaining wall require permits. If the planned wall measures higher than 4 feet, most municipalities require designs and permits come through a licensed engineer. In some locations, if the wall is shorter than 4 feet, a permit may not be required. For the requirements in your area, contact your local government.
