"David was responsive quickly to our inquiry through Angi, and followed up with an appropriate quote understanding the yard needed fill dirt and leveling. We were in the service schedule queue and maintained communication for the scheduled service days. We were mindful of the spring weather and rain filling the large depression in the yard. We needed dry ground for leveling. When we got the dirt delivered, David brought the tract machine and got to it. Upon request, we agreed to add hay and seed to the project. Understanding the time and labor and supply cost in the current economy- we gladly support this business that is making our home projects possible. Thank you so much!"

Northpoint Roofing Systems is a full home restoration company taking pride in using the highest quality products and installation methods available. Northpoint offers Free Roof Inspections to determine if your roof is in need of just a few repairs or a full roof replacement. Our consultants are fully trained on what to look for and will leave with you a full color print out of the condition of your roof. We can even help you work with you insurance company. Our work is fully backed by our warranty. Contact us today to schedule your free inspection! Our primary business philosophy is to “do what you say you’re going to do, when you say you’re going to do it!”. Cardinal Roofing’s full roof replacements meet or exceed all local building codes and manufacturer’s installation requirements. We include critical items not paid for by insurance such as, ice and water shield at no additional cost to the homeowner. Additionally, we go above and beyond what is required by the shingle manufacturer and local code, by using one nail more per shingle than is required, up to six (6). This reinforces the shingle and increases the wind rating thereby extending the life of the roof. ICE and Water Shield is a membrane like material with an adhesive backing that is installed in the valleys and around roof penetrations (vent, skylights, chimneys) as additional protection in areas most prone to leaks. Workmanship problems will generally surface in the first six (6) months following installation. However, roof replacements by Cardinal Roofing and Restoration includes our 5-Year NO LEAK Workmanship Warranty providing our Customers with added peace of mind. All our employees are covered by General Liability and Workman’s Compensation Coverage. We have a 90% success rate with insurance companies!

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.
