Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"I couldnâ t be more pleased with the exceptional work provided by Rickanâ s Landscaping. I used a local internet search to contact numerous companies for new landscaping installation. It was a daunting task to find someone that fits my expectations. Thankfully, Jeff Rickan contacted me quickly, accommodated my schedule and personally assessed the job site. He is so personable while sharing his expertise and passion for transforming landscapes. He listened closely to my vision and truly wanted to make me, a potential customer, happy. He returned to my home providing a timely estimate and comprehensive plan that worked within my budget. He thoroughly explained everything and made sure to disclose the time frame for the projectâ s commencement. I had no reservations about selecting Rickanâ s Landscaping for such a large important project. Once the project began, the team of workers arrived on time and put forth extreme effort and care. He communicated throughout the entire process and invited me to be incorporated with plant placement and selection before planting them in the soil. The true mark of a great company is experience, quality work and taking care of their customers. In this case, Rickanâ s Landscaping went above and beyond and will absolutely receive my future business - and most likely, that of my neighbors and friends!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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

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.

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. 

Vinyl retaining walls are often the least expensive type of retaining wall, at $10 to $15 per square foot. This budget-friendly material is lightweight and durable, but it doesn’t have many decorative options. Untreated timber and railroad ties are the next step up, and start at $15 to $25 per square foot, respectively. High-end steel or natural stone tend to be the least wallet-friendly, but they’re extremely durable and come with a high-end look.
