Better than timber walls — no rot, no bowing, no replacing every few years
Timber Walls vs. Modular Block Walls
Why Timber Walls Are the Wrong Choice
When homeowners compare timber walls to modular block retaining walls, the differences are huge:
Timber / Railroad-Tie Walls:
• Rot, bow, and lean as moisture breaks them down
• Attract termites, ants, and wood-boring insects
• Cannot handle water pressure — often fail behind the wall
• Short lifespan (5–10 years) before major repairs or full replacement
• Most failing walls we replace are old timber walls
• Once the wall starts failing, the only real fix is tearing it out
Modular Block Retaining Walls:
• Do not rot, warp, or bow like wood
• block systems built for strength and soil retention
• Proper drainage prevents pressure build-up and wall failure
• 25–40+ year lifespan with proper installation
• Clean, consistent appearance for decades
• Increase property value and curb appeal
• Can be built taller, stronger, and safer than timber
• Offer multiple styles, colors, and textures
Timber walls fail quickly, require more maintenance, and cost more long-term — modular block walls are the stronger, safer, and smarter investment for your property.

FAQs
-
Retaining wall pricing depends on the type of wall, the size, the materials, and the conditions of your property. Because every retaining wall requires a unique approach, we provide a free on-site consultation and detailed estimate so you get accurate pricing for your project.
-
Most small to medium retaining walls take 2–5 days to complete. Larger walls simply take more time because they involve more digging, more material, and more overall labor. Accessibility also affects the timeline — tighter spaces or slopes may require additional preparation. We handle the full process from excavation to finishing so your wall is built correctly and made to last.
-
Yes. A properly built retaining wall improves drainage, prevents erosion, creates usable flat yard space, and boosts curb appeal. Walls that solve slope issues or expand functional space often increase both the functional and resale value of your home.
-
Pavers offer better durability and won’t crack like concrete slabs. They can also be repaired individually, come in many colors and patterns, and provide a high-end custom look. Concrete is cheaper upfront, but pavers offer superior long-term value and style.
-
Yes — proper drainage is essential for a long-lasting retaining wall. No matter what type of wall we build — modular block, boulder, or stone veneer — we always install a complete drainage system behind it, which includes:
• Drainage gravel
• A perforated drain pipe
• Correct backfill material
• Compaction in liftsThis prevents pressure buildup behind the wall and helps it remain straight, stable, and structurally sound for decades.
-
We build retaining walls throughout Fayette County and Coweta County, including Fayetteville, Peachtree City, Tyrone, Brooks, Senoia, Sharpsburg, Newnan, and surrounding areas.
-
We install three main retaining wall styles depending on your yard and the look you want:
• Modular Block Retaining Walls – Strong, modern, long-lasting, and ideal for most structural retaining wall projects.
• Boulder Retaining Walls – Natural, rustic walls built with large boulders to create a bold, organic appearance that blends into the landscape.
• Stone Veneer Retaining Walls – A structural concrete block wall finished with high-quality stone veneer for a premium, custom look that matches your home or landscape.During your consultation, we’ll help you choose the best style for your property, budget, and long-term goals.
