"Punctual, friendly, professional, and very helpful. Amazing team of guys! We had a fairly new retaining wall that collapsed due to improper installation and deep roots buried in river rocks. David and his crew came bright and early, worked very hard in the hot sun, explained things along the way as I took pictures, and made sure that the wall was reconstructed correctly with proper drainage. The price fit perfectly in our budget. They went above and beyond! They left me with thick black topsoil to plant flowering shrubs and hauled away the roots and brush. I highly recommend David and his crew. We will continue to do business with them; as we are also needing concrete work done. Great job, fellas!!"

"While timely communication was an issue at times, and a few bidding appointments at another property were mis-scheduled, when they did come out to bid, Eric and Brian were friendly, professional, helpful and efficient. When I hired them to replace a family member's retaining wall, after a few rain delays, they were on time, completed the job faster than expected, and did a stellar job. The wall looks GREAT. I would HIGHLY recommend them, and have recently gotten their bid on our property as well. Just make sure to confirm appointments the day before, or as the project/bid date approaches, or you might be the only one there."

"In 2013 I was out of town on a trip. My wife called in a panic because water was coming in through a crack in the basement wall. We had lived in the house for 20 years with no issues. Recently we had new sidewalks poured which disrupted the water flow from the house. This caused water to seep back into the foundation. The Leaky Cellar came the next day and provided a fair estimate and repaired. When I returned home I was very pleased with the work, timeliness, and price they charged. A less reputable company could have taken advantage of the situation. Recently we had the annoying water seepage in our stone foundation. The Leaky Cellar proposed various options to address the situation. They recently installed interior drains. The men were very professional and answered all my questions. For a messy job, they left the basement in good shape. I was very pleased with the work, price, and professionalism. I would recommend them to a friend."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

They prevent soil erosion, add flat space, and enhance property aesthetics.

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.

A retaining wall can only function as a fence if it’s high enough on all sides to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the pool. However, most retaining walls retain dirt, which means their purpose is not related to safety. There would need to be nothing on the other side of the wall for it to be considered a fence, but in that case, it wouldn’t retain anything and would cease to be a retaining wall.  

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.
