"I couldn’t be happier with the incredible job Kristi and Advanced Quality Contracting did building my new deck. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, professional, and right on schedule, which is rare these days. Kristi took the time to really listen to what I wanted, offered thoughtful suggestions, and designed a deck that perfectly matched both my needs and my vision. The quality of his workmanship and materials is top-notch. Every detail looks clean, sturdy, and beautifully finished. It’s clear he takes great pride in his work. Kristi was a pleasure to work with, responsive, respectful, and committed to getting everything just right. He showed up when he said he would, kept the job site clean, and finished exactly on time.

"Jaymes arrived early in the morning and went right to work clearing the leaves under my Beech tree that were left over from the Fall, hauling away several large tree branches that fell during recent high winds, and dethatching my lawn. He made sure that everything was cleaned up after the job was completed."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Regular inspection for issues like cracks or leaning and ensuring drainage stays clear.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its particular material, whether it was properly installed, how well it’s maintained, and your local climate. Concrete, stone, and brick retaining walls last the longest, with concrete lasting between 50 and 100 years on average. Brick tends to last the longest, with a minimum of one century, under the right conditions. 

Timber retaining walls can start to deteriorate at 20 years, depending on the wood quality, but in the best case, they can last 40 years. Pressure-treated wood retaining walls last 30 years on average.

Installation typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the wall’s size and site conditions.

Poured concrete is likely the cheapest way to build a retaining wall, as this material costs anywhere from $6 to $8 per square foot. The next best budget-friendly option is to use landscaping timbers. These timbers are great for DIY projects, as they don’t require tools to successfully build a retaining wall. Landscape timber costs around $10 to $14 per square foot. Depending on your chosen garden style, you can also go with natural stones or concrete blocks. Natural stones can be expensive if you buy them, but they’re a lot less costly if you can source them from your property. 

Options include concrete, stone, brick, and wood, tailored for specific design needs.
