"Bryan did an outstanding job installing our concrete steps out of our bottom patio pad under our deck of our newly built home! The quality of his work is excellent, and everything turned out exactly how we hoped. He pays attention to the details and takes a lot of pride in what he does. On top of that, his pricing was very fair and competitive. We got several quotes, and Bryan was one of the best-priced contractors without sacrificing quality. He's also one of the hardest-working contractors I've ever met. He never stops working, stays focused on the job, and puts in a full day's work from start to finish. He's friendly, easy to talk to, and always willing to answer questions or explain the process. If you're looking for someone who is honest, dependable, hardworking, and does quality concrete work at a great price, I highly recommend Bryan. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again and will definitely be recommending him to friends and family."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.

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.

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.
