"Robbie Moody, owner and operator of Cold Mountain Grading, is an exceptional young man. He is polite, professional, responsible, reliable and an outstanding problem-solver. His communication skills were excellent, and from his first visit, Robbie was able to offer solutions that others did not mention. He put in a new drain from the gutter, installed a new French drain along the side of the building that was too low, spread topsoil to raise about .5 of my yard, planted seed and covered with straw. Under my deck he built a retaining wall, and spread crushed stone to level. The job was done perfectly, and in only three days. I would definitely hire and recommend Robbie in the future."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

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.

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. 

With foundation walls, the slab on grade and force at the top of the wall is resisted by flooring. With retaining walls, the force at the top of the wall is not resisted.

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.
