"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 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

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

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.

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.

There are contractors specifically trained in the design and construction of retaining walls. Retaining wall contractors are skilled at dealing with the soil on your property and assessing what kind of drainage should be installed. They will recommend the best materials to use for the project and can handle the processing of permits by local authorities.

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.
