"Sam and his crew do an amazing job! I couldn't be happier with the retaining wall that he installed at my house. He and his crew work very fast while making sure to do a good job as well. I even had him do some more smaller projects for me. I will continue to use Sam anytime I need work done!"

"Finish Touch gets 5 stars from me. They built us a beautiful looking retaining wall at the rear of our house 4 years ago this month and were the low bidder by far--the bids ranged from over $17,000 to under $3000 for Finishing Touch with several others from 6k to 10k. I waited to post a review until now because build quality of a retaining wall can't be measured until after passage of time. Their wall has held up nearly perfectly over 4 years now so I believe it is justifiable to say it was properly built and the preparatory pre-construction work like ensuring drainage was all done well. On top of doing first rate work at the low price, a few months ago I contacted Mr. Watson about another potential job involving our crumbling and sagging concrete front steps and porch. He spent a good 20 minutes+ explaining we could get 90% of the benefit of redoing them by instead mud jacking them and using polymeric sand to fill a crack. He was right. I unreservedly recommend them."

"Absolutely, 10 out o10! From the moment Chris responded to our request for landscaping help, to the completion of the job, we could not have been happier or more satisfied. He listened to what we were looking for and had great suggestions. His price was very fair and what we appreciated most was how dependable he was. He did exactly what he told us he would do in a very timely manner. Chris had a great crew. He picked out beautiful plants. They prepared the soil, planted the bushes and tree, delivered and installed the perfect complementing rock, and expertly trimmed the existing bushes we were keeping. If you have the opportunity to work with Chris and his crew, don't hesitate! Mike and Tina"

"Called Dedicated Turf 11/1 @ 3pm, owner Tom answered the call. I asked for a quote and timeline to aerate, seed and fertilize my lawn, he quoted me and said he could do it 11/2 @ 8:30am. I compared his bid with another vendor and his bid was lower. I called him back and booked the service. He showed up on time and finished in 45 minutes. He was pleasant, professional and courteous. I would hire him again."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.  

Options include concrete, stone, brick, and wood, tailored for specific design needs.

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.
