"Yes and YES!! Oakmont Construction was awesome to work with. Brad Bickett was on the spot to help and answer any questions that my wife or myself had. Brad even went as far to make sure that we reviewed every option possible when we were exploring ideas for the deck style and concrete options before and during the construction. From beginning to end Oakmont is a customer driven construction company that actively cares about their customers."

"Clover lawn called me within 24 hours of the request. They communicated regularly with me, gave me a very reasonable estimate and stayed in touch. The job was completed above and beyond expectations, they even did a final mow after the leaves were removed - even though it wasn't part of the original estimate, without an additional charge. The yard, flower beds and driveway were immaculate. Will use again, they are excellent and very nice people."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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

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.  

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.

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.

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.
