"I had this company come out and replace a large retaining wall and install a concrete pad for a shed. From start to finish they were very professional and easy to work with. The communication was great throughout the whole process and the work turned out awesome! I highly recommend this company for future projects! Thank you TSG!"

"I couldn’t get the big fencing companies to call me back. This company responded immediately. We ran into a few unforeseen obstacles but they powered through to make sure the job was done right and to my satisfaction. Even asking permission to arrive at 6 AM on a Sunday morning to finish up so they could be home in time to make it to church and spend the afternoon with their families. Not only that, they saw me struggling with a project I was working on and jumped in to help. Then they quickly resolved another issue with a commercial fence joining my yard that was preventing my back gate from closing. They exceeded my expectations and were good company as well. I would highly recommend them not only for their skill but their attitude and values."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

Most retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.

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.

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your hardscaping is adding value to your home.

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.
