"After the flooding our fireplace was not working and the mantel was destroyed. Joe met us over there the first time and cleaned/serviced the gas fireplace and fixed a blown electrical switch. He also ordered us a new fireplace mantel and installed it when it came in two weeks later. It looked great. They were responsive and easy to work with. The fireplace surround is perfect and looks amazing.

"Keith quickly came to my house to take measurements and quote me for a brick-paver and concrete installation. After we agreed to a price, he allowed my wife and I to choose our paver color, style, pattern, and size from a recommended supplier. After the construction team showed up, it only took a half a day of preparation, and a day to install. They left no mess behind and always cleaned up at the end of each day. They even left me some sod and patched my yard as necessary to promote grass growth in bare areas! I was very impressed with this company and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for landscape/irrigation construction. Especially in Charleston during the summer months! Thanks Keith!"

"After my previous company bailed on me and left a yard full of leaves. I left messages for several companies here on Angie's list. Only two responded. Both came out to inspect my yard. Reubin responded quickly and we worked out a fair price. I was eager to get it done quickly since it had been over two months. He was able to work me in sooner than promised. They raked the yard and bagged. I can finally see my yard again and it looks great. I would definitely recommend."

"After a year of an absolute mess in my backyard due to pool installers not completing the work and refusing to come back we reached out JHS for help. They were very responsive, gave us a quote same day, and the work was completed a few days later. I can finally use my backyard and enjoy the pool that we spent thousands having put in. More projects to come and JHS will be the team I call for all of it. Exceptional customer service and attention to detail."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its material, installation quality, maintenance, and local climate, with an average range of 20 to 100 years. Retaining walls made from durable materials like concrete, stone, and brick generally last a minimum of 50 years. Concrete walls typically last between 50 and 100 years, while brick can last for over a century in ideal conditions. Timber retaining walls can last from 20 to 40 years, depending on the wood quality, and pressure-treated wood walls average around 30 years. It is important to note that a retaining wall can fail prematurely if it was poorly constructed, for example, with inefficient footings or without necessary rebar reinforcements.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

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.

A retaining wall can only function as a fence if it’s high enough on all sides to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the pool. However, most retaining walls retain dirt, which means their purpose is not related to safety. There would need to be nothing on the other side of the wall for it to be considered a fence, but in that case, it wouldn’t retain anything and would cease to be a retaining wall.
