Customers say: Quality work

"The retaining wall looks GREAT! But the lack of communication along the way to completion isn't how I would run a business. Finishing the job also became an issue. The start date was never communicated. The workers just showed up on day. Upon completion of the wall, completing the backfill behind the wall took several visits, with the final results looking messy."

"The job included removal of approximately 100 feet of pressure treated landscape timber retaining wall of varying height (2 to 4 feet high) and replacement of a stairway. I can't say enough good things about Renan and his team. The work was completed within the stated schedule. The quality of the work was outstanding. They are trustworthy and honest. The work was done efficiently. Renan explained the work plan in detail and provided estimates when changes were considered. I highly recommend MAGALHAES MASONRY. I have additional work planned for next spring and will definitely hire MAGALHAES MASONRY."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

A retaining wall can only function as a fence if it’s high enough on all sides to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the pool. However, most retaining walls retain dirt, which means their purpose is not related to safety. There would need to be nothing on the other side of the wall for it to be considered a fence, but in that case, it wouldn’t retain anything and would cease to be a retaining 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. 

The longevity of flood walls depends on how they were constructed, but most wood, gravel, and cement flood walls last 10 years. While aluminum flood walls may cost far more initially, they can be a good investment as they can last decades and will not be damaged by exposure to the elements.

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.

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.
