"B & J Pools installed us an in-ground pool late last year. They do great work. I would recommend them to anyone. Stayed on the timeline they presented and completed the pool on time. We love our pool and kids have been in it everyday this summer. Highly recommend B&J pools."

"I purchased a $149.00 coupon for $300.00 of masonry work. Waited for quite with no response from Antonio, even called Angie's List and complained. Antonio stopped by my house on crutches and all bandaged up. He almost lost his life. He was in bad shape. He apologized for not getting in touch with me, but after seeing him, I know I was not on his mind. I told him I would wait about two months for him to get better and bring his team over. I showed him a drainage problem that two other people had attempted to fix. I am very glad I waited. He continued my retaining wall but lower it to 30 inches by 30 linear ft long, continuing with a stone drainage way to the street. He put in three pallets of grass that can grow in the shade
and contoured my ground so the rain water would not run to the house. He put in three 4'' French drain pipes behind the wall that carries the water off the hill to the street, installed a large catch basin that feeds into my new 12'' drain. We have had some rain and it works. I now have an area on this side of the house that I can use. This was for $6160.00. I then took him inside the house where he fix sheetrock and painted. one laundry room and installed cabinets in another laundry room. He even painted my Trey ceiling. This I paid him $1000.00. We are very pleased with everything Antonio and his team did. I heard the expression " Good things come to those that wait", I am so glad we waited. I agree with the customer that said you should have an A+. I am going to hold on to this number.

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.

Options include concrete, stone, brick, and wood, tailored for specific design needs.

Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.

Yes, including patterns, finishes, and plant integration for aesthetic enhancement.

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like.
