"I hired Midwest Retaining Wall INC to tear out an existing railroad tie wall that measured over 7' tall and 185' long. They replaced the old wall with limestone boulders. The new wall looks and performs great! The owner runs a tight ship with an excellent crew of men. They're very knowledgeable, clean cut, always on time, with a noticeable work ethic. The estimated job competition date was 2 days early and the finished product looks amazing! This is the second time in 15 years that I've used Mr. Ramsey to install large retaining walls and each time exceeded my expectations! I would recommend Midwest Retaining Wall to anyone."

"Price was a bit higher than some but in the middle overall. Had quotes from $1900-$5100. Project included pressure wash, scraping, some wood replacement/repair, caulking of all joints, painting with quality satin finish Sherwin Williams exterior. One color change for front door. Prep was done in one day. Wood repairs and 95% of painting done day two. Finish painting and clean up morning of day three. Great quality and workers. TCB coordinated schedule with gutter company so painting was done after gutters came down and then new gutters were installed after painting completed."

"We used Vesta Foundations for our driveway repair. Mike, Omar, and Rudy did an incredible job and were very professional. They explained the different phrases as they completed each repair which was very helpful. They used a foam to fill in the voids underneath our driveway and also sealed our joints and put a drainage system from our gutters to carry the water on down the side of the driveway."

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.
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.
Through proper drainage solutions and compacting the foundation soil.
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.
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.
