Premier Lawn Care has installed hundreds of walls. One of the common questions we are asked is "How much does a retaining wall cost?"
It is easy to say "well it depends" because there are so many variables but here are some ranges for different types and sizes of wall projects.
The height of the wall, straight vs curves, type of materials, access to the site, backfill material, and slope play a big role in determining the cost of a retaining wall project.
