"We hired them for a small retaining wall project and then ended up hiring them for larger retaining wall project. David is very reliable and professional. He is about getting the job done, and getting it done right! They were on time, cleaned up after themselves and kept in communication at all times. I would definitely recommend them!"

"I was referred to Tomas by a coworker. I asked him to do my lawn and he offered to come Friday. I asked if there was any chance he could come sooner and he made it happen Tuesday! My back yard has a retaining wall that wouldn't allow his mower to be used on my upper yard and we had discussed that was ok and he could just do the lower portion and front yard. The team ended up using string trimmers to maintain the upper lawn. I was very happy with the quality of service, for the price! Would hire again!"

"I recently had a retaining wall installed in my backyard, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. The construction team was professional, timely, and attentive to detail. The wall itself is sturdy and well-crafted, effectively holding back the soil while adding aesthetic value to my landscape. The materials used were high quality, and the design seamlessly integrates with the overall look of my property. The team also provided clear instructions on maintenance, ensuring the longevity of the wall. Overall, I highly recommend this retaining wall to anyone looking to improve their yard's functionality and appearance."

"Leo, Mike and the crew did a great job! The crew did a very large clean up of our yard and it look wonderful. Price was high for me, but what isn't these day! They were able to accommodate an extra job of building a new landscape timber bed while they were here. I will definitely call them again for more projects!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Isaacs is a true professional who obviously loves and takes pride in his work. He first provided a free estimate, coordinated a installation date with us, and arrived on said date on time and ready to go to work. When I suggested a different river rock than planned and an alternative supplier he had never worked with, Isaacs was very open to the suggestion and went to that source to ensure we were satisfied with the end result. He also suggested the material for the retaining wall which turned out beautiful. We plan on using Delgado Landscaping in the future and would recommend his company to anyone needing such work."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.  

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like.
