"I hired Alex Masonry to remove and rebuild a retaining wall that was leaning. After some discussion, I decided to expand the project to include new bluestone caps and to re-do my cracked concrete walkway with pavers. Alex and his crew did an outstanding job. Alex is extremely knowledgeable, personable and a pleasure to work with. His pricing is very reasonable. He and his team did a great job. Hard workers, with great attention to detail. I would highly recommend Alex Masonry!"

"Absolutely brilliant service, can't recommend more highly. Punctual, quick, quality work, responsive, diligent and made great suggestions. Asphalt driveway and travel trailer pad look awesome. Temporary fix for another driveway crinkling while we sort out retaining wall was excellent also! Highly recommend."

"I own several properties and Brian's guys have done almost every type of landscaping job for me over the years including general maintenance, new lawn seeding, spring and fall clean ups, bush trimming, pruning, tree removal, brush clearing, rock sculpturing, building retaining walls, and installing Belgium block. My most recent major project involved clearing over two acres of land of high brush, wild plants and trees, which required the use of a wood chipper for a month. I feel like I have a new property. It looks great, it is now useable for my kids and grandchildren to play and the value has increased tremendously. Brian is easy to talk to and he always manages to stay within my budget. His workers are professional and always eager to please and they don't mind redoing things when I have a design change. Really, I have not once been disappointed with their work and as my wife would say I am not easy to please. The one thing I should leave with is that it is important to book early since Brian gets real busy in the Spring and scheduling may get difficult for a big job if you are not booked. Or, you can do what I often do and have him work in the winter if the project allows it. It could also save you money as well. --"

"Willie from G&R Landscaping was very professional, and did an incredible job on my property. His attention to detail was like no other, and his work was exactly as we discussed. He installed a belgium block border on my driveway, and his work was extremely neat and clean. Willie also put top soil/seed in a section on my yard, and cleaned out brush and leaves behind my shed and completed everything perfectly. Willie is very responsive and willing to listen and give advice about anything landscape related. His price is very fair and he keeps the customer in mind throughout the whole job. I would recommend him to anyone."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

They prevent soil erosion, add flat space, and enhance property aesthetics.

The longevity of flood walls depends on how they were constructed, but most wood, gravel, and cement flood walls last 10 years. While aluminum flood walls may cost far more initially, they can be a good investment as they can last decades and will not be damaged by exposure to the elements.

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.

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.
