"I hired The Patch People to skim coat and finish my living room of an old house that had textured walls. Bob and Chuck arrived on time, were very professional and protected the rest of my house from dust and cleaned up when they finished. The job was done on schedule and what a difference it made, its beautiful! They are a family-owned company who takes pride in their work and at the price they quoted I highly recommend them. I will defiantly be using them again."

"All work was completed quickly by Kris and his crew and better than I expected due to other contractors screwing things up or leaving them unfinished in the past. I had multiple holes to include in the ceiling. Everything looks great on the smooth walls & the patterned ceiling. Kris fixed water damaged walls and even cut out an access hole to water valves that had been mistakenly covered up by a past contractor I hired. He also went and picked up the appropriate type of plastic covering for the access hole. It's also important to mention for females looking to hire, I am a single female home-owner and felt completely at east with Kris & his crew all day long. I would recommend & rehire in a heartbeat!"

"Chris with Friesen Family Renovations, LLC was very professional and thorough in the work he has completed. He installed a new screen door, replaced my tub stem and faucet, repaired my subfloor in the kitchen and installed brand new LVP flooring to replace old and water damaged flooring. He also mounted a television for me, and did some drywall repairs as well. I would recommend this business to anyone looking for quality and dependable work!"

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

A retaining wall can only function as a fence if it’s high enough on all sides to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the pool. However, most retaining walls retain dirt, which means their purpose is not related to safety. There would need to be nothing on the other side of the wall for it to be considered a fence, but in that case, it wouldn’t retain anything and would cease to be a retaining wall.  

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like. 

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.

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.

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.
