"Great! We had a positive experience with the installation of our hardscape and landscaping. We highly recommend Luis Mendoza and his crew. They were on time, hard working and flexible. When I requested changes during the process Luis was happy to accommodate. We are very pleased with our yard. We would definitely hire Luis Mendoza again. Give Luis a call at 520 333 0164."

"We are so happy with the way our yard looks now! We hired L&M landscaping a while back to remove some trees and trim. This week they just finished up our back yard project: patio overlay and extends into yard with pavers, artificial grass, planting, hooking up water to the plants, & the final touch of adding landscape lighting. The yard looks beautiful! We were pleased with Matt’s responsiveness, communication about logistics was easy, and the crew was hard working, completed the project in a week. Luis and Matt (and their crew) were great to work with. We would gladly use them again for any future needs!"

"We have hired Sergio to do a number of small jobs over the last 2 years. Everything turned out good. Sergio is great about returning my calls and comes when he says he will. Sometimes when he can't make it, he has called to reschedule. Sergio and the people he has helping him have always been friendly and conscientious and he made us feel safe doing jobs during Covid times."

"The work was completed quickly with great attention to detail. They communicated well as one day they had to leave early to attend to a sick child. All throughout they communicated about options and alternatives when unexpected circumstances arose. Overall outstanding workmanship and professionalism. They truly wanted us to be happy with the project and we are. Have already had positive responses from neighbors who have seen the pavers. Highly recommended and I will call them back when I am ready to install artificial turf."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

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

Yes, you can use cinder blocks for many purposes, including retaining walls, foundations, garage walls, and fences. Building a cinder block retaining wall costs between $60 and $200 per linear foot, including materials and professional labor. For a 30-foot-long retaining wall, the cost ranges from $1,800 to $6,000.

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.

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.
