"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

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.

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.

The longevity of flood walls depends on how they were constructed, but most wood, gravel, and cement flood walls last 10 years. While aluminum flood walls may cost far more initially, they can be a good investment as they can last decades and will not be damaged by exposure to the elements.

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.
