"Jose and his crew replaced old wood retaining walls. They installed the posts at a deeper depth and also cemented them at the base. 2x6's were used for the walls and secured to the posts with 3/8 x 3" galvanized lag bolts. will hire them for other projects. Work was done in a very short time. All debris was cleaned up after. extremely pleased with the quality and aesthetics of the work done."

"The whole process went quite well.  We met with Jake in June where he fully described his services and what he envisioned for our area.  Having received several glowing recommendations from others that had used him (for example, he installed the water feature in the butterfly house of our local botanical gardens), we asked him to submit a design.  He provided an overall design about a week later that we liked and we gave him the approval to put us on his calendar.  One thing we liked about Jake was he was upfront and honest, letting us know the design might change once he started working the area; he likes to let the area dictate the design, not the other way around.  If it was going to be a significant change, he would stop work and discuss the changes with us.  Luckily he "read" the area correctly the first time and there were no significant changes. Jake's calendar is very full so the first time he could fit us in was mid to late September. Due to delays on other projects that was pushed to mid October, which we don't consider unusual for this type of project.  He estimated it would take 10 days to install; it took 13 mainly due to having to order and wait for a larger pond liner than expected.  Jake's crew was professional, polite, and worked very hard.  They arrived on time and worked the entire time.  He also installed landscaping around water feature and he used quality, sizable plants and didn't skimp on the cost (camellias, gardenias, encore azaleas, hawthorns, etc).  When we asked him to make one change (cement the rock retaining wall so the dog wouldn't knock it down), he agreed with no increase in cost.  And finally, he returned after the install to go over maintenance of the pond equipment and water plants.

In short, we are exceedingly pleased with this company, would use them again, and definitely recommend them to anyone considering a water feature."

"My roof had a leak that dripped through the walls of my stairwell to my first floor.  I was expecting to pay thousands for a roof replacement.  When the Cobalt guy investigated, he said he could just seal the leak for about $75.  I was elated!
The repair was awesome.  He said the repair would sometime next week.  I didn't even know the repair had been done until I received a text letting me know they were finished.  It would be so great if we could trust everyone to do the job quickly and easily, like the Cobalt guys.

"We recently  bought a house built in 1952, and if one could imagine, we are having a lot of work done, which requires us to deal with several different company's. After all the company's we have dealt with, this is the first company that showed up on time. I was very impressed with Chris's work because the wall he built where the door used to be looks like it has always been there. It blends in perfectly. At the completion of the job, Chris cleaned up the area as if he was never there. I  highly recommend this company because he takes pride in his work and is very customer orientated. Plus, I was very happy with the price.

"Very professional and the work was fantastic. We has an old patio taken out, a new patio installed and landscaping in the front yard. Everything looks great and we have had so many compliments from the neighbors already. They always kept us informed, they showed up when they said they would, and they cleaned up the site."

"John has both repaired and installed irrigation systems in my yard. He is hard working and knows what he is doing. He has always done a great job for us, so we keep calling him whenever we need irrigation work done. I would not hesitate to refer him to friends, in fact I already have."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional installation ensures structural integrity and durability for larger walls.

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.

With foundation walls, the slab on grade and force at the top of the wall is resisted by flooring. With retaining walls, the force at the top of the wall is not resisted.

Most retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.
