How tall can you construct a retaining wall?
The maximum height of a retaining wall varies by stone type and design and area it is to be installed. Gravity retaining walls can be constructed up to 4 feet. Walls taller than that require engineering of both the wall, and the soil below.

Retaining walls can last decades with proper care and maintenance, although the typical lifespan for a concrete block retaining wall is 20-30 years. Proper maintenance can expand this range even longer!
