"Jon is AMAZING!! We're extremely pleased with the backyard paver flatwork patio Jon from JA Land Development installed for us. From the start, Jon demonstrated a high level of honesty and transparency, ensuring we were informed every step of the way. His business practices were refreshingly upfront, and we appreciated his patience and generosity in working with us to bring our vision to life. The craftsmanship was exceptional - the paver work is solid, level, and beautifully laid out. Jon's attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident in every aspect of the job. What truly sets Jon apart, though, is his integrity and reliability. He was direct and clear about the start and finish dates, and he followed through without any delays. We trust him completely and would not hesitate to hire him for any future projects. We're deeply grateful for the exceptional service and workmanship he provided.

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.

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.

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.

Most retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.

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.
