"I scheduled an appointment with Joey to give me an estimate for some landscaping work. He forgot about the appointment until I called him, resulting in him being 1 1/2 hours late. Following our meeting, he was supposed to provide me with a quote for the work we discussed, but I haven’t heard from him. I’ve since read reviews on Backyards Plus. He either is a 5 star, or a 1 or 2 star based on the reasons I’ve cited above. Not sure if he treats all potential customers this way, or maybe my project wasn’t enough $$$ for him. I was ready to have him do my landscaping project and take over my lawn service. Doesn’t seem to want the business."

"Called Mario when our first concrete person kept making excuses as to why the cement truck couldn’t come and pour and he started 5/13 and now it’s 5/23. Mario was referred to me by my realtor and so the process began all over again for us. Called Mario Friday late morning he came to see our driveway Friday 6:30pm granted the previous flight by night Carl Mulle Concrete Services had already ripped up the driveway concrete and had about 1/3 of the rebar and form in place. He claimed it had to done in 3 separate pours, we learned how wrong he was. Mario explained what needed to be done, he had to redo part of what had been laid down but said I have called the cement truck company in advance of our meeting. My crew and I can start Saturday 7am and the cement truck will arrive 8:30 am. We agreed to price which was very fair considering we were out a lot of money. We didn’t know what to believe and expect. The crew came Saturday at 6:30am, cement truck came at 8am. Mario and his crew got down to business and poured 20 yards of concrete. That’s 2 trucks, Mario said we should have the work done by 1pm. He did better, it was done basically by 12pm. Unbelievable! The precision and detail of each worker was outstanding. It was a team effort all around and we couldn’t be happier to have this project complete. We haven’t been able to use our driveway for 2 weeks thanks to Carl Mulle. Mario and his crew are very professional and the quality and craftsmanship shows."

FAQs for retaining wall installation projects in Magnolia, TX
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.
