"Ralph's workmanship is exquisite. He takes great pride in his projects and notices small details which enhance the look and satisfaction of the finished project. The intricate ceramic tile pattern he created in a neighbor's laundry room reno and his meticulous creativity in a newly built "cottage" blew us away. Naturally, he did not disappoint us! Our custom cabinets and remodeled porch are stunning. A bonus in hiring Ralph is that his crew exhibits the same high quality work ethic and positive attitude. They're an amazing, cohesive group, whether Ralph is on site or not. Moreover, we found the vendors he recommended to be highly competent professionals whose services and materials quickly established their own knowldge and skills. We're confident you'll be as thrilled with Ralph's work and recommendations as we've been. It's difficult to find contractors who can be trusted, who enjoy their work, and whose communication is easy and clear, but it's even harder to find ones that don't disappoint. Caputo Contracting does NOT disappoint!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.

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.

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.

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

Depending on who you hire to build a retaining wall, the average cost, including demolition and reconstruction, for a 50-foot wall that's 4 feet in height is between $7,000 and $24,000.
