"Fantastic! Alan and team did an amazing job on my front and side yard - adding a beautiful stacked stone retaining wall around my flower bed, installing a lovely stone walkway on one side of my house and creating flower beds on both sides of my home. Alan was so professional. He communicated before, during and after the project; he was prompt, kind and a true delight to work with. I highly recommend him!"

"Outstanding once again! Nicolas always comes through with exceptional work and great customer service. Back in 2014, I had Nicolas install a paver patio with a retaining wall. Now, in 2021, I’ve decided that it was time to add onto the patio along the side of my house. Nicolas and crew did a fantastic job as usual! The side of the house now looks great, has really opened up and now drains the way it should. Nicolas is my go to person for these projects, give him a call!"

"I contracted David to replace a 21 foot by 8 foot cinder block/brick veneer retaining wall that had collapsed after 60 years. David replaced it with segmented block at a lower cost than directly replacing with cinder block and brick. But the end results were a great improvement in wall appearance and overall home value. Extremely skillful and professional workmen. Best after job clean up I've ever experienced. My wife and I are totally satisfied and highly recommend 2D Pros. Jim T. in Raleigh"

"Mauricio and his team are AMAZING! They are super professional and do high-quality work. Last year they installed a brick patio in my backyard, and I hired them again to build my front porch. Next stop: fence!"

"Had requested recommendations from several landscapers on HomeAdvisor and Chris promptly responded. He came to my home to access my needs and we discussed what I was looking for. Within a couple of days, Chris provided a full design layout for my review. Once I approved the design, Chris and team scheduled the installation date (within a week of approval) and completed the entire job in a day. Chris goes the extra mile to ensure his clients are happy and satisfied with the work. He is very professional and easy to work with. I am very pleased with the finished job and wouldn't hesitate to hire Chris again if the need arises! Thanks Chris!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

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.

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.
