"Needed a retaining wall repaired. Others offered to patch it, but Danny took the time to figure out a solution which will last for years. I am more than pleased. Excellent work."

"we had a 5'X100' retainer wall built by this company and we are just thrilled with the way it turned out. The crew that did the job were very professional , friendly, and the hardest working team that I have ever seen. It was very hot & humid and they were slinging 100 lb blocks. Any concerns we had about the project they addressed on the spot, no arguing. The job was finished 3 days earlier then quoted. we plan on hiring them again to put in a walk way ."

"Edwin and his team did an outstanding job on a challenging retaining wall project. He was very collaborative in working out the layout of four retaining walls with eleven granite stairs and a new patio with a fire-pit. His team worked very hard with the excavation and construction which was all done by hand due to the slope of the site. He started and completed the job as quoted. We are pleased with the finished result."

"Edison and his crew were terrific and we couldn't be happier with the results. He was professional, responsive and even when they encountered some challenges with the gradation of the ground itself to install our fence they came up with a creative solution. I would reccomend Edison and his company for your home project and we plan on using him in the future for others. Thanks Edison!"

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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

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.

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.

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. 

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.
