"I would like to compliment Brad Johnson the foreman who took charge of the tear down of the old fencing and the installation of the new wood fence. Joshua with 15 years experience installing fences and his co-worker Tim took pride in their workmanship and it shows. They made sure it was straight and plumb. The worked fast and were finished in just two days. Because of these three men I would recommend HBC Builders, LLC."

"The installation went along perfect. Bruce (the owner) came to my house at the time he said he would. We talked about the installation/layout to make sure it was not only what I wanted, but to make sure it worked with what my current lawn setup is, but what I might do in the future. He first did a preliminary layout and then when I/we agreed it would work with what I wanted, he then did the final layout. Afterwards, he came back the next day and installed the system. Once installed, he then made sure everything worked, gave me his number and told me If I had any problems to call him. Unfortunately I did, do to my own error, but he promptly came back and took care of it. I can say without any hesitation that I was completely satisfied with the work, but more importantly with Bruce and his company and their effort to make sure I was a satisfied customer. Prompt, courteous and professional. I highly recommend this company if you are looking for quality work. The biggest thing for mee was that they did what they said they did and I didn't have to do it when thy were ready. A top notch company that does gret work."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your hardscaping is adding value to your home.

Yes, to build a retaining wall, a permit is required. Similarly, any repairs or modifications to an existing retaining wall require permits. If the planned wall measures higher than 4 feet, most municipalities require designs and permits come through a licensed engineer. In some locations, if the wall is shorter than 4 feet, a permit may not be required. For the requirements in your area, contact your local government.
