All wood retaining walls will eventually fail. Wood in contact with the soil will not last forever. Railway ties that are impregnated with creosote may last 15 to 20 years, but many don’t last that long. Conventional pressure-treated wood doesn’t have a much longer life expectancy, although the more effective pressure treatment used in preserved wood foundations is more durable. Conventional pressure treating has not always proven effective against termites. This is an area that should be a concern when buying a home.
