Default Retaining wall installers?

A bit of an oddball one that I haven't had to deal with before.

My retaining wall in the back yard is leaning and will need to be replaced. The big retaining wall bricks are likely the best option for what I need to do like in this image.



I just know I can't do it all myself (well, I could, but it'd take 2 months and would be a major pain in the butt).

What are some companies that CP would recommend to assist with the digging and installation?

I also won't be able to actually see the retaining wall once it's done as it will be adjacent to my neighbour's fence and is below the grade of the rest of the yard.

Man, you just missed out on cheap building materials. They were tearing out the retaining wall in the SW corner of 14th and Southland intersection. Contractor was basically giving the blocks away. Might be worth swinging by during the day to see if there is any left. They are quality blocks, much like what's in your picture but a bit bigger.
