"I high recommend Etmond Komic! We originally hired him to repair our pool house wall and replace an attached, deteriorated shed. After removing the old structure, it became clear the wall had extensive, severe water damage and needed a complete rebuild. From start to finish, Etmond stood out: Detailed Proposal & Very Fair Pricing: While three other local companies gave vague, general quotes, Etmond provided a clear, thorough breakdown and a significantly better price. Thanks to his low overhead, his estimates were incredibly competitive without sacrificing quality. Innovative. Etmond suggested a fantastic new design for the attached shed that maximized head room and increased storage space while actually lowering the overall cost. The project presented several unforeseen issues—including an uneven asphalt base that required custom framing adjustments—and Etmond handled every single one with clever solutions. He is also proficient in electrical and plumbing. I highly recommend him!"

"Andrew worked to get our job done before winter came and the wall potentially fell over. He was timely in his response to my original contact and proceeded to stay in touch as we set a work date and that date approached. Andrew and his crew arrived on time and explained each step they were taking. Andrew felt we would be able to re-use the material, thus saving the cost of new material. The crew was efficient, good-natured, and thoughtful. The project was completed just as promised and the work area cleaned up. I would certainly use them in the future.

Wall Repair FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.

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.

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

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.
