"Where do I start??? This company is great! My husband and I were blown away by his professionalism and constant communication with us. Not to mention, how knowledgeable and punctual they were. He is not your average contractor :) He did everything he said he would do and all in a timely manner. In 4 days, the removal of our old deck and awning was taken down, a new deck was built, completed brick and stone pointing on the back and side of my home, last but not least.... made my garage look brand spanking new (stucco walls)! I am beyond pleased with the work done. If you want quality work at a reasonable price, Trinhs Construction is the way to go."

"John of Plymouth Nursery and Landscaping and his staff were wonderful. They did a terrific job cleaning up my property and planting all new beautiful shrubs and plants. Also installed a system to help with my water problem. My property was in desperate need of a face lift and John and his crew came through. I would recommend Plymouth Nursery and Landscaping!"

"Our project included redoing outside stairs that were uneven and hazardous and adding a separate rather long walkway on a gentle slope for a stroller or wheelchair. Conor came on time and came an additional two times to plan the work correctly. He then scheduled us and came exactly when planned. The quality of the work is excellent and precise. Conor was on site overseeing the people working for him, working alongside them and problem solving, confirming with us his suggested solutions, as a couple of unforeseen issues arose. I would definitely recommend Conor and his straightforward and very knowledgeable approach to anybody needing concrete work."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.

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.

Most retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.

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.
