"Alan came out in 2012 and gave me some honest suggestions.  We connected again in 2013 and decided on how to proceed.  The work was scheduled for August 2013 and completed in a few days.  Both walls are holding up very nicely now.

"Donovan and team were professional, punctual, preformed grate work and a pleasure to deal with. We had a large 8ft decaying retaining wall in our alley with a 100 year old 60 ft tree bumping up to it. We were quite apprehensive to replace the wall due to the tree. Donovan and team came up with creative approach to replace the wall without disturbing the tree. I highly recommend king Scapes Kevin Korb"

"Our experience with Patios and More was top notch! Mike was responsive and took our considerations to heart as he designed our retaining wall. The team worked tirelessly and at the end of a long day, spent a lot of time cleaning debris from the street and ours and my neighborâ s yard. They are professional through and through and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to enhance their home!"

"Clark Companies put a border around our swing set, installed rubber mulch and put down hydroseed. They communicated great, were friendly, on time and listened to exactly what I wanted. Will definitely use them for future landscaping projects."

"This spring Paul and his crew installed three retaining walls for me. Along both sides of driveway and across back and side of my yard. Would not hesitate to recommend Paul and his crew (who were so nice!). Great communication from start to finish. Work performed as bid, on schedule and very professional. I am very pleased with the whole experience in dealing with Paul, and the walls look great."

"I would highly recommend Highpoint Poroperties for your landscaping projects. Gunner and his whole crew were great to work with. My neighbors even commented on how happy and polite they are were, despite lugging countless wheelbarrows full of rocks around our yard. Gunner communicated well and they were no “surprises”, which seems rare nowadays when dealing with a contractor. I highly recommend and I would use them again in a heartbeat."

"Great company. They replaced a large retaining wall for us using 3 foot boulders, about 750 sq ft of face, and also repaired serveral paver installations. They were very professional, had great communications, and a great crew. I can't recommend Sean and his guys enough. Javier, the on-site forman, was fantastic."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

Options include concrete, stone, brick, and wood, tailored for specific design needs.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

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.

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.
