"Brian and his crew did an OUTSTANDING job revitalizing & updating an old retaining wall and adding a beautiful new wood fence. Due to the rain & extreme heat we had, the project ran a little late in completing. But we were in no rush! The communication was wonderful, Brian helped with picking out materials & colors, and was even OK with us adding on a few extras. They were very careful around my lilies and lilac tree, which was a HUGE plus for me. We even had neighbors who asked for quotes! Very, very pleased with the whole experience with them, and will hire them again for the next project!"

"They arrived early and started work on leveling the front and back yard with two loads of good MO farm soil. Removed two trenches on the east and west side of the house caused by rushing water. Raked the yard front and back and two side yards to incorporate new soil and make everything smooth and flat and level. Covered bare sweet gum maple roots. Removed all ruts and shallow holes in back yard creating a smooth flat surface the grandkids can play on. Seeded with quality, Kentucky Best grass seed and laid a layer of straw for protection. Cleaned off asphalt driveway cracks filled with weeds and debris. Sealed cracks in old asphalt (2.5 car) driveway. A layer of new asphalt was added for a smooth black clean surface. Cleaned off the curb on the street side of grass and weed debris. Installed drainage system to include 4 French drains using gravel line ditched, used drainage pipe from each corner end of the house which fed water underground and to the street. They also removed 11 Shepherd’s hooks which had hanging flowers and bird feeding stations to move the dirt and level the yard with heavy equipment. The bird feeding stations I could were deep in hard dry soil and the descendants of Roman gods made quick work of sheperds hooks and bird fountains. Now we can put them back once we have grass growing. Yes, we thought their price was higher than previous quotes from others. But we have been waiting a year plus to get this done and no one could get to it till January 2023. They were well recommended and completed the work in 7 hours with a great team of hard-working, very polite, and skilled young men."

"Matt inspected our property for new damages. It had previously had foundation repair and waterproofing services performed by a different company but we were getting ready to put it on the market. Matt gave us an honest assessment and his recommendation for replacement of our front steps even though we weren’t a good candidate for his services at this time. 10/10 would recommend!"

"It was a real pleasure working with Jim Sorenson. He was a professional participating crew member while actively supervising the other crew members on my very small project. He also demonstrated scheduling flexibility to accommodate my special needs due to work by other contractors and weather interference."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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 speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.

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.

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.

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.
