"Chris came out to my home, walked the property, and presented his quote for the services requested. It was fair and comparable to others I had received. I chose to hire Chris because of his enthusiasm, obvious knowledge of the business, and insightful observations and suggestions. I inspected the work once completed and was very pleased. He went the extra distance and left things looking awesome. What?s more, I retained Chris for the upcoming season for regular lawn maintenance."

"Freddie Moore of Ramjack repaired our shop foundation in 2020 before we purchased the property. We asked Ramjack to come do a Warranty Inspection to assure nothing had changed in the last 2 years. Susie Normal was friendly, efficient and prompt in her response and arranged for Jacob Christian to come to the property within a week of my call. Jacob kept us informed of his arrival time; completed the inspection; advised us of the results and his recommendations. We couldn't be happier with the work that was done, the Warranty Service and how professional and knowledgeable both Susie and Jacob were. Their customer service was superb! We highly recommend them for your foundation repair needs!"

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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

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.

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

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.

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.
