Here at AJ Hetrick Enterprises, we do a wide variety of jobs for many different customers. We've been in business since 1998 and are an owner-operated business. Some of the things we specialize in (but not limited to) are construction (including pole barns), excavation, demolition, concrete, asphalt, driveways(can be what you decide, whether it be stone, concrete or asphalt), hauling off excess materials(dirt, stone, asphalt, concrete, A.K.A anything left laying around or is a displeasure to the eye), trucking (we have hauled loads for some well-known companies before, such as Monsanto during harvest or the local dairies with wet and dry feed. We also haul water from a local spring to Ice River Springs where it is bottled and shipped to stores nationwide). Have you ever had to chose which company you wanted to do your driveway, but didn't understand what they were saying due to use of industry-specific terms? When you choose us, we simplify it so you can understand what we're talking about. Let's say that this guy (Man A) says he can do your driveway for cheaper than we(Man B) can. A majority of the time, people like Man A get cheaper materials which decrease the life expectancy of the driveway. We give you the choice whether to choose a less durable product or a very durable and trusted product. If you're planning on moving soon (sometime within the next year) and need to make things look nice, my personal advice is go for the more expensive option. It will have a longer life and will hold up to the elements better, plus, if you mention that the driveway was recently redone, it can drive the price of the house upward, therefore gaining more profit for you! Back to the subject- If you ever find yourself in need of any services provided, please contact us! If you're interested in having a pole barn built but would like more information, please visit our website, http://ajhetrickenterprises.simplesite.com/ . If you have any questions, give us a call! - Abby Hetrick :)

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it's repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. The creosote treatment in traditional railroad ties helps resist rot and insects, but proper drainage is essential for maximizing longevity. Regular inspections and prompt repairs of minor issues can help extend your wall's useful life.
Creosote-treated railroad ties can pose health risks if used near edible plants or children's play areas. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) notes that creosote may be harmful to humans and wildlife. Many localities restrict or prohibit creosote-treated wood in residential settings. For garden applications, consider alternative materials like recycled plastic composite ties or lumber treated with more garden-friendly preservatives.
The ideal drainage solution depends on your specific site conditions and wall height. For most residential applications, a combination of gravel backfill and perforated drain pipe works effectively.
A complete drainage system costs between $2,100 and $6,500, though basic solutions start at $500. Proper drainage prevents water pressure buildup behind your wall, significantly reducing the risk of failure and extending its useful life.
For walls under four feet tall on relatively flat terrain, you can proceed without engineering services. However, walls exceeding four feet, those on steep slopes, or projects with unusual soil conditions require professional engineering input.
A structural engineer can design appropriate footings and reinforcement to ensure your wall safely handles the lateral soil pressure it will face.
Railroad tie retaining walls start at $15 to $25 per square foot, with most projects averaging $25 to $30 per square foot, depending on complexity and site prep. This makes them more affordable than natural stone or concrete block walls initially.
While vinyl options may cost less upfront ($10 to $15 per square foot), railroad ties offer superior aesthetics and strength. Though they require more maintenance than masonry options, their lower initial cost makes them attractive for many homeowners.
