Your Retaining Wall Contractors questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on HomeGuide.

What is a retaining wall?

A retaining wall is a structure designed to hold back soil and prevent erosion, particularly in sloped areas. Commonly made from materials like concrete, stone, or wood, these walls are essential in landscaping and construction. They come in various types, including gravity walls, which rely on their weight, and reinforced walls, which use additional support for stability.

The main purpose of a retaining wall is to create flat surfaces for building or landscaping while managing water drainage. Proper design is crucial to withstand the lateral pressure from the soil behind it. When built correctly, retaining walls stabilize landscapes and enhance property aesthetics.

How much does a retaining wall cost?

Building a retaining wall costs between $20 and $50 per square foot, on average, but some materials can cost a bit less, especially when building a straightforward, simple design. Complex designs and premium materials can increase costs dramatically such as steel or metal walls that can reach $150 per square foot.

Some inexpensive retaining wall ideas include using wood which costs $10 to $40 per square foot installed. Wood gives you a warm, rustic appearance that looks great in a garden area. Gabion is another affordable material. The wire mesh cages are filled with stones to create a unique and eye-catching wall that is also affordable, costing about the same as wood but will have better durability.

Where can I put a retaining wall?

You can place a retaining wall in several locations, especially where there are slopes or uneven ground. Common spots include residential yards to create flat areas for gardens, patios, or walkways. They are also useful along driveways to hold back soil and prevent erosion. In commercial areas, retaining walls can stabilize slopes around parking lots or roads.

When choosing a location, make sure the wall is set back from the slope to allow for proper drainage. For walls taller than 4 feet or in weak soil, it's best to consult a professional to ensure safety and effectiveness. Proper planning helps the wall last longer and work better.

What is the best type of retaining wall?

The best type of retaining wall depends on your needs and the site conditions. For small to medium projects, gravity walls are a great choice. They are heavy and hold back soil effectively and can be made from stone or concrete blocks. For taller walls or areas with more soil pressure, cantilever walls are strong and flexible, often made from reinforced concrete.

If space is tight or the soil is weak, sheet pile walls made from interlocking steel sheets work well. They are good for soft soil and are often used for shorelines. For a natural look, stone block walls are durable but can be harder to install. The right choice will depend on your budget and what you want the wall to look like.

How do I choose a retaining wall contractor?

Some tips to help you find a reliable and skilled contractor include:

  • Check experience: Look for contractors with a proven track record in building retaining walls to ensure quality workmanship.
  • Verify licensing and insurance: Ensure the contractor is properly licensed and insured to protect yourself from potential liabilities.
  • Read reviews and references: Check online reviews on HomeGuide and Google and ask for references to gauge the contractor's reputation and customer satisfaction.
  • Understand costs: Get a detailed estimate that outlines all costs to avoid hidden fees or misunderstandings.
  • Evaluate technical knowledge: Choose a contractor who understands soil types, drainage solutions, and the materials best suited for your project.
  • Look for guarantees: A reliable contractor should offer warranties or guarantees for their work, providing peace of mind.
  • Find local contractors: Hiring a local contractor can lead to better communication and quicker access to materials.

What questions should I ask a retaining wall contractor?

When hiring a retaining wall contractor, ask these questions to ensure you choose a qualified professional:

  • How long have you been building retaining walls?
  • Can you provide references?
  • Are you a certified installer?
  • What is the projected budget?
  • Do you hire subcontractors?
  • Can you show examples of your previous work?
  • What materials do you recommend?
  • What is the timeline for completion?

I'm not really big on writing online reviews, but I do believe in sharing the positive experiences when a business provides exceptional services. We hired Mark's company for our Kitchen renovation. I reached out to Mark as one of my neighbors used them to remodel their kitchen and bathroom and only had nice things to say about them. Mark was very straight forward and up front during the initial phone call and provided us with a reasonable estimate for our kitchen remodel. I knew immediately he would be the contractor we were looking for. I met with approximately 6-7 general contractors for our kitchen remodel prior to talking to Mark and was simply skeptical or tired of their sales spiels and unrealistic price quotes. Mark was very pleasant to work with and came by almost on a daily basis to oversee work progress. Armando was the guy who did majority of the remodeling work and boy was he phenomenal! Very professional and knowledgable, he knew exactly what he was doing, did not cut corners and paid attention to a lot of details. We had a pleasant experience working with everyone on the team throughout the entire process and couldn't be happier with how the kitchen turned out. I would highly recommend Siber Remodeling to anyone who is looking for a reliable contractor.
