"The entire project went very smoothly. Jason started work immediately after signing the contract and completed the project in a timely manner. Jason and I communicated frequently during the construction phase of the project keeping me informed of the status, and he also made several recommendations to help improve the final outcome."

"They arrived early and started work on leveling the front and back yard with two loads of good MO farm soil. Removed two trenches on the east and west side of the house caused by rushing water. Raked the yard front and back and two side yards to incorporate new soil and make everything smooth and flat and level. Covered bare sweet gum maple roots. Removed all ruts and shallow holes in back yard creating a smooth flat surface the grandkids can play on. Seeded with quality, Kentucky Best grass seed and laid a layer of straw for protection. Cleaned off asphalt driveway cracks filled with weeds and debris. Sealed cracks in old asphalt (2.5 car) driveway. A layer of new asphalt was added for a smooth black clean surface. Cleaned off the curb on the street side of grass and weed debris. Installed drainage system to include 4 French drains using gravel line ditched, used drainage pipe from each corner end of the house which fed water underground and to the street. They also removed 11 Shepherd’s hooks which had hanging flowers and bird feeding stations to move the dirt and level the yard with heavy equipment. The bird feeding stations I could were deep in hard dry soil and the descendants of Roman gods made quick work of sheperds hooks and bird fountains. Now we can put them back once we have grass growing. Yes, we thought their price was higher than previous quotes from others. But we have been waiting a year plus to get this done and no one could get to it till January 2023. They were well recommended and completed the work in 7 hours with a great team of hard-working, very polite, and skilled young men."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its material, installation quality, maintenance, and local climate, with an average range of 20 to 100 years. Retaining walls made from durable materials like concrete, stone, and brick generally last a minimum of 50 years. Concrete walls typically last between 50 and 100 years, while brick can last for over a century in ideal conditions. Timber retaining walls can last from 20 to 40 years, depending on the wood quality, and pressure-treated wood walls average around 30 years. It is important to note that a retaining wall can fail prematurely if it was poorly constructed, for example, with inefficient footings or without necessary rebar reinforcements.

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.

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.

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

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.
