Retaining Wall Bid Comparison Scorecard

Enter up to three proposals and score scope, drainage, engineering, communication, schedule and fit with your own weights.

These tools give planning-level estimates from typical values and the details you enter. They are not quotes or engineering, legal or safety advice, and results depend on your actual slope, soil, water, materials and choices. Taller and loaded walls often need engineered design and permits, and local rules decide. Only a conversation and a site visit can confirm what a project needs, and we give you a written estimate before work begins.

How it works

Four quick steps.

  1. 01

    Enter the bids

    Add up to three contractors and their total bid amounts.

  2. 02

    Rate each one

    Score scope, drainage and base, engineering and permits, communication and schedule from one to five.

  3. 03

    Set your weights

    Decide how much price and each factor count.

  4. 04

    Compare

    See the highest score and the gap to the lowest bid.

Tips

  • Ask every contractor for the same wall size, materials, drainage, reinforcement, engineering and cleanup.
  • A very low bid may leave out drainage, base work or haul-off.
  • Ask what happens if rock or soft soil is found.
