"I can?t begin to express what a wonderful experience it was working with these guys! They exceeded my expectations, and at a fair price. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy, and fast but detailed oriented. They listened to what I wanted, and gave helpful feedback to insure that my vision was created in the most cost effective way possible. They went above and beyond - I would recommend them to anyone! Both my father and sister work in different aspects of construction and were blown away with what they did. Don?t hesitate to reach out to them for all your grading and clearing needs. I had a bunch of storm damage from Helene, and site work that needed to be done prior to the actual grading (in two different places, on a small mountain at the SC/NC border). They did all of that, and used the wood chips and debris to help curb erosion. Super communicative, friendly, fair, and genuinely nice people. 10/10 experience!!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

With foundation walls, the slab on grade and force at the top of the wall is resisted by flooring. With retaining walls, the force at the top of the wall is not resisted.

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.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its particular material, whether it was properly installed, how well it’s maintained, and your local climate. Concrete, stone, and brick retaining walls last the longest, with concrete lasting between 50 and 100 years on average. Brick tends to last the longest, with a minimum of one century, under the right conditions. 

Timber retaining walls can start to deteriorate at 20 years, depending on the wood quality, but in the best case, they can last 40 years. Pressure-treated wood retaining walls last 30 years on average.

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.

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.
