"I recently had NLC Landscaping build a retaining wall on my property, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the completion of the project, the team at NLC Landscaping was professional, efficient, and skilled. The retaining wall itself is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. The pricing was fair and competitive. Overall, I highly recommend NLC Landscaping for any retaining wall project. Iâ m extremely satisfied with the end result."

"Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF): Patterson Custom Concrete is an outstanding company to hire. They can do the easy stuff or the complex projects. They are legit concrete Subject Matter Experts (SME's)! As a retired US Marine with 20+ yrs of service, I needed a company that delivered high quality work, done in a timely manner, that listened to my concerns and was capable of adjusting to new discoveries as we progressed in our project work. Billy Patterson the company owner came to my project site the day after we talked on the phone. His expertise and enthusiasm to address my project blew me away. His ability to leverage mobile apps for payment was a huge upside for me as well. He had a solution for every concrete challenge I gave him. I even fact checked him and everything he said was spot on from industry standards and best practices. Site Lead Tom Perillo attention to detail gave me more comfort during the entire time. Hire these SME's to get it done right!"

"Josh- is extremely passionate about his work and a real master of his trade for a young man!! I would highly recommend his work. He finished the job sooner than he quoted, the work far exceeded my expectations, and he was one of the more affordable quotes I received. Needless to say, I would highly recommend him and his team for any retaining wall or paver patio job. His team has been back to do several projects since the original wall."

"Pete and his team were phenomenal. They totally transformed my yard adding. a boulder wall, lots of additional usable flat space and a fantastic design. Pete was very knowledgeable and had a great vision for my project and shared lots of ideas. The pricing was fair for the amount of work performed. The project was completed under budget and in a very timely manner. Pete and his team were reliable and got back to me quickly. I really appreciated the quality of the boulders so much that I had another contractor purchase boulders from Pete for my next project."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

Proper design and construction prevent erosion and add structural stability to landscapes.

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.

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.
