"This project replaced a rotten wooden garden retaining wall with a new one. I was impressed with Jeff's communiations. He provided an estimate in one day and started the project the next week. His crew showed up on time. The crew was hard-working and finished the job in one day carrying heavy materials to the backyard by hand. The quality of the work was excellent."

"I requested 6 quotes from local contractors. While Patrick Stollenmaier was not the cheapest, his plan was quite detailed and added a secondary wall 6 ft in to ensure the land was usable for a raised bed garden and lawn area on the upper segment. While the start was delayed by a couple of weeks, the work done was exemplary. At 80 ft long, the crew had limited space to work but all was coordinated with me and neighbor. Some of the details included ample 'deadmen' to better secure the wall to the hillside, much gravel for adequate drainage as well as downspout drains directed to the street to drain rather than draining into neighboring yard. The crew cleaned the site daily and, when finished, spread straw and grass seed on the lawn areas and applied sufficient mulch on the garden site."

"Arrin and his crew built a substantial retaining wall for me. I'm quite pleased with the finished product. I found them to be timely, professional, and friendly. They were only booked out a couple of weeks. They also were very helpful with hauling off, installing a rail, and even touched up my gravel drive. I had been dreading this project for years and it actually went very smoothly. A positive experience for sure."

Pour day!
We are here a day after the pour pressure washing the stamped portion. A powder was put on top to darken and provide contrasting light and darks, some of which is getting washed off now.

"Everything went very well! Nick planted some ground cover, installed stepping stones, repaired our irrigation system and maintains our lawn on a regular basis. Everything was done very much to our satisfaction. He is punctual and will always call if he is delayed.

"We needed a creative solution to address a very steep bank and drainage issue in the backyard of a house we just bought for our parents. Dave was super engaged and very thoughtful about the design options that would address the water drainage concerns while being very attentive to our desire to have a very natural look, including us in all aspects of the project design and implementation. He ended up building a four tiered, terraced retaining wall, installed a gravel drainage system, stone steps and railing, and some additional landscape cleanup and grading. The outcome exceeded our expectations, in large part due to Dave’s attention to detail and listening to the customer. He went out of his way to consider the needs of my aging parents with respect to the hard scape work (steps with railing) and ensured the choice of all materials met our preferences. Highly recommend him for any challenging grading, water drainage, hard scape/ retaining wall issues you might have."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your hardscaping is adding value to your home.

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.

Yes, to build a retaining wall, a permit is required. Similarly, any repairs or modifications to an existing retaining wall require permits. If the planned wall measures higher than 4 feet, most municipalities require designs and permits come through a licensed engineer. In some locations, if the wall is shorter than 4 feet, a permit may not be required. For the requirements in your area, contact your local government.

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.
