"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!"

"They showed up on time and were very professional and efficeint.  The job was finished in two days, including Easter Sunday.  The quality appears to be very good.   We recevied two bids and Gen Ent was about 20% lower.

"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."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

There are contractors specifically trained in the design and construction of retaining walls. Retaining wall contractors are skilled at dealing with the soil on your property and assessing what kind of drainage should be installed. They will recommend the best materials to use for the project and can handle the processing of permits by local authorities.

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.

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

A retaining wall can only function as a fence if it’s high enough on all sides to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the pool. However, most retaining walls retain dirt, which means their purpose is not related to safety. There would need to be nothing on the other side of the wall for it to be considered a fence, but in that case, it wouldn’t retain anything and would cease to be a retaining wall.
