"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!"

"Benito is absolutely AMAZING to work with. His team built our dream patio for our new home including pouring the concrete, building a roof and running electricity. His quote came in much better than other larger companies. His team was able to complete the project in 2 weeks. He presented ideas that helped us make the space better. I was in constant contact with Benito throughout the project via texts and in-person conversations that really made sure we were on the same page. This addition has transformed our home and we couldn’t be more happy with how this turned out."

"Overall, I am very pleased with the service provided by Edwin. Within hours of my original request he was at my house surveying the project. I had my quote within 2 business days and the work was completed within 2 weeks. The quality of his work was very high and the level of communication was impressive. He arrived to work on my project as planned. I do feel as if the plant choices could have been a little larger given the cost of the project."

"Uhl Stonework and Epoxy Floors were awesome!!! I was not sure what I wanted and how it would work out, but I was heavenly surprised by the results. Richard was very knowledgeable and helpful in helping me make a decision on how to complete my two projects. One consisted of having stone laid for my trash bins, so that they would not be sitting in the grass in my backyard. Also, Uhl built a rock bed with a stone wall in my backyard. I will be hiring them for my next project when I am ready to proceed. Thank you Richard and your team!!!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.  

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its material, installation quality, maintenance, and local climate, with an average range of 20 to 100 years. Retaining walls made from durable materials like concrete, stone, and brick generally last a minimum of 50 years. Concrete walls typically last between 50 and 100 years, while brick can last for over a century in ideal conditions. Timber retaining walls can last from 20 to 40 years, depending on the wood quality, and pressure-treated wood walls average around 30 years. It is important to note that a retaining wall can fail prematurely if it was poorly constructed, for example, with inefficient footings or without necessary rebar reinforcements.

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

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.
