"They completed a 10 by 14-foot paver patio with a retaining wall on two sides under an existing deck. The project was completed in two days.

I asked questions at every step and Marvin explained everything that they were doing in detail. I would definitely use them again."

"This contractor supposedly and mis-understood my statement to and remove snow and and preceded to upcharge me twice. While I will say his and people did a good job, he proceeded to be sarcastic with me about the snow removal and amount, then told me I should have done it myself. He overcharged me based on his quote even though I agreed to the larger amount, then proceeded to charge me more based on his workers assessment of the snow being over 6 ft. tall even though I had told him it was about the size of a car (see photo). He initially was going to charge me $400 for 2 parking spaces, but said he had to charge more due to the excessive snow he had to move, I reminded him that in our original conversation I has asked him to and remove the snow, not move it, and he claimed he misunderstood me. He then told me I should have done it myself. I paid him his asking fee, but do not ever use this person or his company, he is clearly a scammer, and will try to up your bill if he thinks he can. $600!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Generally, a railroad tie retaining wall consisting of a single line of ties should be between 3 and 4 feet tall—and the height often tops out at around 6 feet. You can go taller, but you may need additional footings and reinforcements, including a second layer of railroad ties to support the added weight of the soil it’s holding back.

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your hardscaping is adding value to your home.

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.

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.
