"Chris and his team did an awesome job! The outcome was better than I pictured when I hired them. I had 6 contractors quote the project; there were a couple that came in cheaper but didn't have the credentials that Yanton's did. There was a wait to get the project started, but I think that is because of Yanton's reputation, putting them in high demand. The overall project took about 5 days, and they stayed very busy the whole time and took care to not destroy the rest of my yard or belongings. Chris was very honest when making suggestions in regards to quality, looks and costs. I would definitely rehire and recommend."

"They made my ugly duckling yard into a beautiful swan. They worked hard getting out rocks and dead plants. They came up with a beautiful arrangement of perennials. They did everything with excellence. They put concrete under the border wall. They broke up an old concrete patio and repoured it correctly with good stones and rebar. It all looks so beautiful and was done with integrity. They were very polite."

"Very pleased with the project. Scott and his crew were outstanding, quality timely installation. The patio was installed in the back of our yard and equipment and materials had to go over front lawn and there was virually no damage to the lawn. Exceeded expectations."

"Jon and his wife (the owners) were very pleasant to work with. He provided us with a very reasonable quote to install landscape curbing. It took 3 weeks longer to start than anticipated due to weather issues but not in their control. Jon and his assistant William were very professional and showed up daily until the job was done. It took a few days longer to complete than expected but nonetheless they worked diligently to make sure they were providing excellent service and quality. We would definitely recommend R&J Masonry"

"Bruce Mantz and his crew can come to my house any time! Punctual. Professional. Meticulous. He didn't start the job when he said they would - he started it a day early which was fantastic!!! If you've ever had a contractor at your house before, you probably know that doesn't happen. At the end of each day they cleaned up the job site and didn't leave us with a mess. We told Bruce that he's the professional and has free reign as far as design went and to what he felt needed to be done...it is not a mistake to tell him that and then just let him do what he does. Now when we have company over there is a "WOW" factor when we show them our backyard - it went from being an eyesore to a work of art. We absolutely love it! He gave a lot of thought to what he was going to do and how he was going to do it. There were a couple of days that they weren't able to work because of heavy rains; because he knew that was a major problem for us, he drove 30 minutes north just to see how the water was flowing through our backyard for himself. When the rain cleared and they started work again, sure enough, he modified what he was doing based on what he saw. To date, we have ZERO problems with heavy rain water in our backyard anymore. Anyhow, in an effort to keep this short, if you want to hire a contractor that loves what he's doing and not just trying to make a buck, you can't go wrong with Mantz's Lawn & Landscaping, LLC."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

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.

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