"After a spring and summer with numerous hard torrential rains, our long and steep drive had been rutting and eroding at a quickening pace. It was nearly impassible in several spots when P.J. And Mike came to evaluate. They were thorough and provided a very doable estimate. From their attention to detail, i felt confident they would do a good job for the cost. They called ahead and showed up as scheduled. They worked a hard 2-days of 10-11-hrs. I could not believe it was the same drive; leveled and smooth with new asphalt, holes and ruts eliminated and catch basins and water diversion added. I feel it was money very well spent and would recommend Red Dog and its conscientious workers without reservation."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.
