"Blue Crab Home Solutions did an excellent job of replacing our concrete porch, steps, and railings. Zachary and Nick managed the project in a professional and courteous way. The work crews did an impressive job of demolishing and rebuilding the concrete steps and slab, fixing the mortar in the cinder block walls, building a temporary structure to hold the roof up during construction, recoating the exterior porch walls, and installing new soffit, columns and railings. The transformation is amazing. Additionally, Zachary, Nick, and all of the workmen were clean cut, polite, honest, and hard working, with good manners. I found them easy to work with. I recommend Blue Crab Home Solutions to other home owners who need concrete repair work."

"Kyle Hodges and his team did a great job removing old landscaping and preparing the space for new planting. They also repaired our brick front steps and porch, and installed new path lights to replace old, failing lighting. Kyle is easy to communicate with, and offered a lot of good ideas. We liked his design for new landscaping, and we look forward to moving ahead with the planting in the spring."

"This is a total 5 star company, patio came out exactly like we wanted and they went above and beyond what we originally agreed on. One thing with hiring contractors is sometimes the communization lacks but was never an issue here. I would highly recommend using Ridley Landscaping and will be using again for future projects"

"Filled in and removed the planters, fixed the structure of the wall and added proper drainage and dressed the wall with beautiful stone capped with bluestone. The finished product is gorgeous.

"Professionalism every step of the way; from the initial estimate, to installation and follow up. Marvin Padilla explained every possible layout and option and really took the time to listen to our design. No high-pressure sales tactics, just quality, friendly proposal. We hired them to do a front garden retaining wall and a patio in the back. Day of installation the crew of 6 show up and hit the ground running; took them 1 1/2 days to complete both jobs and we couldn't be happier with the results. We've already gotten lots of compliments from neighbors who are now interested in their work. If I'm ever in need again of stonework or landscaping services, I'm not looking anywhere else!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, 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.

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.

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

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.

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.
