Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cheapest retaining wall to build?
The most affordable retaining walls are usually made from timber or pressure-treated wood. These materials are budget-friendly and easier to install, making them a great choice for small, non-structural walls. At Diamond Masonry & Waterproofing, we can help you weigh the pros and cons based on your needs and long-term goals.
What are the 4 types of retaining walls?
The four main types are:
-
Gravity walls – rely on their own weight to hold back soil
-
Cantilever walls – use a reinforced base slab and leverage to stabilize
-
Anchored walls – supported by anchors driven deep into the soil
-
Sheet piling walls – thin vertical panels used in tight spaces or soft soil
Each type serves a different purpose, and at Diamond Masonry & Waterproofing, we recommend the right system based on your yard’s slope, soil type, and height needs.
What is the most common retaining wall failure?
The #1 cause of retaining wall failure is poor drainage. If water builds up behind the wall with no place to go, it creates pressure that can crack, lean, or even collapse the structure. That’s why we always include proper drainage systems with every wall we build.
Does a 2 foot retaining wall need drainage?
Yes, even low retaining walls like a 2-footer should have basic drainage in place. Water can still accumulate behind short walls, leading to erosion or frost damage over time. We install compact, effective drainage that keeps your wall strong without taking up extra space.
Can I build my own retaining wall?
You can, but it depends on the height and the purpose. DIY retaining walls are doable for short, decorative builds, usually under 3 feet. But for anything taller, structural, or load-bearing, it’s best to bring in pros like Diamond Masonry & Waterproofing. We make sure it’s safely engineered, properly drained, and built to code so you don’t run into issues later.
