"After consulting with a couple of other companies, I made the decision to go with Next Level Concrete and Masonry and I am so glad that I did. From start to finish, Esvin and crew were a pleasure to work with; the price was reasonable; the work was done timely; and the finished driveway is amazing. Thank you Esvin … I will be referring you to others for certain."

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."

"Glades and her team have been cleaning my house for the last 12 years. I hired glades after I had my second child as keeping up with the house was too hard as a working mom. Best decision I ever made. I highly recommend Glades."

"They did an amazing job !! I hadn’t cleared years from yard the entire fall season and was desperate for someone to not only clear the leaves but haul them away as well. Not only did they answer my request quickly but they communicated with me constantly by text ! Even sent pics of the completed job. EXTREMELY professional and job well done 👍🏾…I highly recommend them….and officially saved in my contacts for the future and referrals!"

"Given the experience with the roof repair (reviewed herein), I contacted Abalia for help in completing a project I had started: screening in the open front porch to our log cabin. As the entire cabin is constructed of cedar logs, no straight edges, walls, etc. Screening in openings was straight forward (I did most of this), but the porch needed to be segmented (screened-in area, open area) requiring a wall and door to be constructed. Khaled arrived with all the necessary tools (which I did not have), and in short order (4 hours) had constructed the porch divider wall. Very happy with the end product, as we just completed our first warm season with no bugs on the porch!"

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional installation ensures structural integrity and durability for larger walls.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.

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.

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.
