"Don is extremely polite, knowledgeable, and completed the job in no time. The shutters look fantastic. He washed them and touched up the paint during installation. His price was very reasonable. We will be calling him for our future remodeling projects."

"I deal with small, family-based contractors on home improvement projects often. It was a pleasure doing business with United Paving and Masonry. These guys did an amazing job ripping out my wonky asphalt driveway, eliminating the tree roots that caused the bubbles, and then laying a smooth, solid new surface. They went the extra mile by offering design solutions. I wasn’t left wondering when they would show up as their communication (even with some weather curveballs) was always solid. Worth every dime."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional installation ensures structural integrity and durability for larger walls.
