"Super job and started on time. They did a great job on both projects - both the driveway and the section of the driveway they underpinned with a great looking retaining wall."

"Willy showed up as promised to do an estimate. I was looking for a bathroom remodeling solution that would not require removing all of the existing wall tile from the 1960s. Willy suggested a much more reasonable solution than another contractor who did an estimate because he replaced the old tile around the new tub with decorative tile to give the whole bathroom a newer look. He actually completed the whole job while I was out of town on vacation, which saved me time getting the house on the market. He was very professional in all of my dealings with him. My only complaint is that his crew did not haul off the trash from the remodeling job.

"Brandon and Scott did a great job! This is the third landscape lighting project I’ve had done (work relocations). I had an idea on what I wanted and they helped pull it all together while keeping the price right. They were able to fit me in their schedule the next week. Once they completed the install they came back out to make adjustments to ensure I was pleased! Would gladly recommend to others."

"That service was fine. A week ago they took down a big tree and trimmed a couple. At least 4 came out and they stayed for about 3-4 hours. They did a good job and did what they said they were going to do. They also cleaned up well."

"They came out and did a good job. I wouldn't buy it again. It was fine. I don't remember there being a problem. We still had stuff in the backyard that we had to get rid of ourselves. It was just how the deal was."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, 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.

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.

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.

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.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.
