"Awesome experience with Tyler and crew at Rock Solid Landscape. Tyler came up with a brilliant idea for our backyard patio project and for a fair price completed the job in half the time I expected. It came out beautiful and we are extremely happy. Tyler was always there to answer questions and to make any changes. The crew kept the work area clean at all times and were always courteous and upbeat. We HIGHLY recommend ROCK SOLID LANDSCAPE for a seamless easy experience by a true professional."

"We had to reschedule concrete work a couple of times, but the contractor kept me informed throughout the project. Once work started, the team got after it right away and the project was done within the time frame the contractor promised"

"Allen Landscaping always does a fabulous job of mowing my front & back yard. They let me know ahead of time when they’ll be coming and then when they are finished. They mow, edge, weed eat and use the blower to clean off the sidewalks and porches. I highly recommend them if you’re looking for a mowing company that is dependable!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Through proper drainage solutions and compacting the foundation soil.

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.  

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

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.

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like.
