"I highly recommend Masonry by Thomas without any hesitation. Thomas answered my call immediately and arrived within 24 hours to give me an estimate. His excellent communication and responsiveness made for a quick and seamless agreement. He and his team completed the repair of our 110-year-old stone retaining wall with expert craftsmanship and attention to detail. The final result is stunning and honors the history of the home. I would trust him with any and all masonry work. Call Thomas first."

"I had a photo of a brick pattern I saw in NC and shopped it around to several companies. Thiago was prompt in responding to my inquiry and providing an estimate. After a clarifications, we signed a contract and work began within a few months. The crew was super courteous and easy to work with. Any issues or concerns I had during the installation were immediately addressed without any hesitation or pushback. I am very pleased with the finished product."

"Vinny was great to work with. He had some suggestions and was not pushing to up the price. He did exactly what was disused for the price we discussed. His crew did an excellent job redoing a paver walkway, installing a new retaining wall and a new paver patio that was straight, level and has the perfect pitch for water run off. I would definitely use him again and recommend him to anyone else."

"ALB did a wonderful job on a retaining wall surrounding our above ground pool. It looks beautiful. We have already received many comments from our neighbors. They also repaired our cracked foundation with stucco and repaired our front paver walkway/steps which were in very bad shape. Teki and Eric are professional, knowledgeable and courteous above and beyond the norm. His employees followed Tekis instructions to the T and also did a great job in cleaning up the worksite. My husband knows quite a bit about construction and he saw the way they took the time to protect the pavers from erosion. We are both very impressed with all their work and we would not hesitate to hire them again. Thank you so much to Teki, Eric and the guys!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

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

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.

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.
