For those watching this video, geogrid doesn’t mechanically hold the wall up and keep it from tipping over. What geogrid does is stabilize the soil behind the wall and spread the outward force of the solid, much like a snowshoe does when walking on the snow. It is a necessary element to a properly built retaining wall, usually every two feet of height.
Yes we are based in Clearfield PA. Cost will vary based on site access and many other factors. With that said, large walls such as this you could expect to pay $50,000-$100,000.
Thanks for the comment about the pins. The pins are more for alignment than structural purposes.

That wall looks absolutely great...if you have about a billion dollars to spend.
Not quite that much.....our government could probably manage to spend that on this wall!!
How much does it cost for a wall that size? Also are you guys the gilliland landscape in clearfield PA?
