"Outdoor Advantage has done 2 jobs for us, one a small stone patio and the other a major front yard landscaping with digging out 2 large tree stumps, and then grading, planting, sod, and a small stone wall. They have just done a tremendous job in all respects, with timely service, great attention to detail, and coming back to fix some small things that made it perfect. Great job!! Will definitely use again, and recommend to all."

"Blue Crab Home Solutiuons is an awesome home improvement company to work with. Both Nick and Zach were informative when they came to appraise the work I wanted done, they understood exactly what I wanted and they also made great suggestions to install a railing and gate on my front porch and install pavers on my walkway leading to the porch. Zach helped me select the perfect pavers for the project. I can't say enough good things about the workers who did the job. They were courtious, on time, fast and efficient. They kept me informed as they progressed to completion of the job. I highly recommend Blue Crab for any home improvement project no matter how small or large it may be. I will definitely call on them for any projects I need done in the future."

Customers say: Quality work

"Mr. and Mrs. Howe along with their team of professionals transformed the entire back yard of my Ellicott City townhouse from grass/weeds to a beautiful hardscape surface. Great quality, extremely efficient from start to finish, overall a wonderful experience. Will be reaching out to them again in the Spring to transform the front yard, I consider them landscaping/hardscaping, "Alchemists"."

"We couldn't be happier with Hoffman Landscaping! The workmanship is high quality and the job was done on time and on budget. We had just rescued two dogs, and wanted to get our yard fenced in as soon as possible. Hoffman worked our fence install into their busy schedule, and returned soon after to install our paver walkway and patio. We love to sit on our new patio and watch our dogs run around the yard!"

"East Coast Landscape Design did an amazing job when part of my retaining wall fell after a storm! They came right out to assess the damage and they were able to have their crew out there the following week. The communication with the company was exceptional too and the wall looks beautiful and it is safe!"

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.

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.

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.

Regular inspection for issues like cracks or leaning and ensuring drainage stays clear.

Depending on who you hire to build a retaining wall, the average cost, including demolition and reconstruction, for a 50-foot wall that's 4 feet in height is between $7,000 and $24,000.
