"We needed a retaining wall to help with drainage issues in our backyard. It was a huge job and we definitely needed a professionals help. In comes Ely and his crew from CQS Construction to save the day! The entire process was smooth and enjoyable, which says SO MUCH about their team! Ely came out and gave us a very reasonable quote for the required work within a day of my request. Ely and the crew showed up when they said they would, brought the necessary materials, worked super hard and made my vision come to life. We also decided while they were there to have them pour a concrete slab for our shed because of how great the wall was turning out. They were respectful of our property and left the place impeccably clean. I can not say enough about how much we appreciate their work! We already have another project planned with this company. If you're in the market to have some work done, please don't hesitate to contact them! 10/10 would hire again! Thanks Ely!"

"The contractor did an excellent job installing our stone retaining wall. The craftsmanship is solid, with attention to detail in both the stone placement and overall structure. The project was completed on time and the worksite was kept clean. The finished wall looks fantastic—highly recommend."

"John Bustos literally came to our rescue when a previous contractor walked off the job. We were so pleased with the results in front (porch and sidewalk) that we asked him back to do fencing, retaining walls, and patio refurbishment. He’s a man of high integrity and he has my highest recommendation."

"Jodi and her crew were very professional and fun. Jodi listened carefully to what we wanted and helped us achieve our goal. We wanter a privacy wall that was also beautiful. We got what we wanted. There were delays that were caused by the wettest weather in Austin history but we got there in the end. Highly recommend this company."

"Jeremy and his team are wonderful to work with, could not recommend them more. Jeremy came out and spent a significant time looking at my project and walking me through how to best utilize the existing slopes and footprint in my backyard. Jeremy was able to work within my budget and significantly improved the functionality of my backyard with a retaining wall and grading work. The project did run into a few minor bumps with a work vehicle unexpected going down but Jeremy was extremely communicative throughout the whole project and went above and beyond to keep me informed. 10/10 will use Oasis Landscape and Design for all my landscaping needs."

"Outtex did a 20x16 concrete slab for me and moved my shed onto it. They did an outstanding job, completing the work quickly and efficiently. Everything was finished on time, and their customer service was excellent throughout the entire process. I got three bids for this project, and Outtex worked with me to provide the most reasonable cost. I highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again for future projects!"

"Felipe gave 100% effort to our backyard project - installing new limestone steps, re-sodding, adding a stone garden, planting and general seasonal clean-up. He made excellent suggestions and worked very hard to satisfy, despite our constant requests. Couldn't be happier with the results."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Generally, a railroad tie retaining wall consisting of a single line of ties should be between 3 and 4 feet tall—and the height often tops out at around 6 feet. You can go taller, but you may need additional footings and reinforcements, including a second layer of railroad ties to support the added weight of the soil it’s holding back.

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.

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.  

The longevity of flood walls depends on how they were constructed, but most wood, gravel, and cement flood walls last 10 years. While aluminum flood walls may cost far more initially, they can be a good investment as they can last decades and will not be damaged by exposure to the elements.

If you've decided you'd like to skip the cost of restoring a brick exterior wall after considering whether you should repair or replace brick on your house, you can consider installing fiber cement siding over brick for a cost of $2 to $6 per square foot. When done properly, cement siding over brick offers a durable, low-maintenance option that can actually reduce your home's energy costs. It's also attractive. However, improper installation or installation over heavily compromised brick can cause water damage.
