"I chose "handyman services" but that really understates what Chris and Joe did. They set up 2 temporary walls, then demo'd a load-bearing wall (which was plaster and lath so MUCH more labor-intensive than drywall would have been), then installed a large LVL beam. They also removed trim (as needed to see the old framing) and closed in a window. They were terrific workers and I'd have them back in a heartbeat. The owner of the company was also so easy to work with. HIGHLY recommended -- I will continue to use them!"

"Ryan came on time and quickly determined how the job should be done. He left the job area clean. I asked for an estimate for painting a wall. He was knowledgeable about the paint to use and gave me a reasonable quote"

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Proper design and construction prevent erosion and add structural stability to landscapes.

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.
