"Stephen Borches did a great job fixing and leveling my kestone wall, after a stump grinder messed it up. Id hire him for other projects. Hard worker, shows up on time and gives you a fair price for his labor."

"We hired Pavers Express to give our backyard a makeover with a porcelain patio and artificial grass. From our initial consultation until the project was complete, their customer service was excellent and they helped to guide us in material selection to make sure our vision would be carried out. The team was professional, easy to communicate, and their installation process was very efficient. Highly recommend!"

Customers say: True professional

"Back in September we had Eddie , Mario (Eddies right hand guy) and his crew reinvent our weed strewn back yard. Eddie suggested replacing back patio and extending it out with walkways connecting to a new shed and side of house which turned out great. They put in sod, planted plants, put in sprinklers and drip lines, all which transformed our back weed patch into staycation land. Needless to say we were extremely happy with the results. They also removed and replaced our cracked (destroyed) driveway with a nice clean looking driveway admired many times by passing neighbors (probably happy to see our destroyed one go). It also turned out fantastic. We were so happy with Eddie Mullins Landscaping that we had them return this week and put in a drought tolerant landscape in our front yard. We had a patch of artificial turf put in the center of our small front yard. Eddie suggested the other plants and rock to put in since we had no ideas of our own with Mario suggesting some Japanese maple trees to go along with the plants (thanks Mario great idea). We were amazed by the finished product. Several people have stopped and commented how nice our yard looks now. Eddie, Mario and his brother Michael did a stupendous job on our front yard. Needless to say my wife and I were extremely happy with the job. So if you’re looking for a great landscaping company and have patience check out Eddie Mullins Landscaping. Eddie will get er done!!"

"My wife and I have been contemplating on improving the landscaping in our front yard for the past 2 years. This year was perfect with timing and finances. We went with DYS since they were very local to us. There were other companies with more reviews and we almost went with another crew but I’m so glad we landed on DYS! There’re a lot of landscaping companies out there but the owner James, and his crew were top notch. James was thorough, answered all our questions, and walked us through their plans before breaking ground. We had our landscaping redone, a stunning paver walkway added, as well as a retaining wall installed. James was on site throughout the project and he and his crew were punctual and extremely nice and great at their craft. Can’t recommend Dependable Yard Service enough! Thank you James and DYS, we’ll be back for more."

"My experience was all I could have hoped for. The responses were prompt, schedules were kept, and the work was done efficiently and on time. Mark was open to all of my ideas, and we were in sync from the beginning. The work was done in two days, and both teams (site preparation and the installation) were fantastic. And the finished project looks perfect!"

"Very pricey. Nice product, ok service. I would recommend just because of the size of the company (to stand behind install if you have problems), but fornthe price I likely would not use them again."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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. 

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.

Depending on who you hire to build a retaining wall, the average cost, including demolition and reconstruction, for a 50-foot wall that's 4 feet in height is between $7,000 and $24,000.

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.

Generally, a railroad tie retaining wall consisting of a single line of ties should be between 3 and 4 feet tall—and the height often tops out at around 6 feet. You can go taller, but you may need additional footings and reinforcements, including a second layer of railroad ties to support the added weight of the soil it’s holding back.
