"Vitoria Pavers did an excellent job on a retaining wall to level a sloped yard. They were competitively priced, shared ideas on how to improve the design throughout the project, and completed the project in a timely manner. I would definitely hire for any future work."

"We had Brian totally redo our driveway and are extremely pleased at the result (see pictures below). It looks so nice, that several people passing the house have stopped and commented about how nice it looks, and it was installed 5 months ago. Not only that, Brian's bid was "extremely competitive" and one of the lowest compared to the other four we requested. I would highly recommend that any prospective home owner contact Brian before committing to another contractor."

The installation process was seamless and the team was professional and efficient. I now have a backyard that I can be proud of and enjoy all year round. I highly recommend this company for anyone looking to enhance their outdoor space."

"Done within one week. Superb job trying to match other panels with textured Cement block. They went above and beyond to do my big job. They really know masonry. They are very friendly and courteous. Hole left by a vehicle is now closed in and matches the rest of the wall, and is stronger and supports the other weaker panels. It could have only been done better if Slump Stone was still available. The texture job they did to make it match looks better than the one done down the street."

"We had an excellent experience working with Vitoria Pavers Contractor! We wanted to update our long driveway by removing the old concrete, installing pavers, and repaving and reviving our side yard. From start to finish, the process was seamless. Mike from Vitoria responded to our inquiry promptly and came to our home to discuss our options. He provided thoughtful recommendations, and we loved his ideas. The project took about a week, and throughout that time, the Vitoria team was professional, communicative, and respectful of our space. They ensured that the large equipment and materials were not disruptive to our neighbors, which we truly appreciated. The final result was fantastic, and even after the project was completed, they returned to address a small lingering issue—showcasing their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. Vitoria Pavers is a great company to work with, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality paving services!"

"I just completed a job with Landscape Solutions in Los Gatos and wanted to share my experience with anyone who might be looking for a landscape company. Our project was a small yard with a combination of hard surface and the installation of artificial turf for our dogs. I was surprised how good it looks and the dogs seem to enjoy it as much as real grass. I interviewed a few companies and chose Landscape Solutions based on how easy they were to talk to and how transparent they were with their process including design and billing. The entire job went very smoothly. I changed a few things after we started, and they were upfront about how that would impact the time to completion and the cost. In both cases their estimates were accurate. Their pricing was competitive and given the quality of the finish product and the ease of working with them I found it to be very reasonable. The guys they had doing the work were very professional, polite, and easy to work with. They cleaned up after each days work and returned the next morning right on time. I appreciated that they were very respectful of my time and my home. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience and I have already recommended them to a friend who may need work done in the future. They are a 5 star contractor. I highly recommend them."

Customers say: True professional

"Carlos and his crew did a wonderful job installing a new paver patio at our home. It was our first experience with pavers, and Carlos guided us through the whole process from design, material selection and installation. His crew was punctual, professional and respectful. When things unexpectedly occurred or were outside our expectations, as is typical in such projects, Carlos went above a and beyond to make sure we were happy with the situation and final product. The result is a beautiful paver patio. It rare to find a company so committed to customer satisfaction. Highly recommend."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Yes, to build a retaining wall, a permit is required. Similarly, any repairs or modifications to an existing retaining wall require permits. If the planned wall measures higher than 4 feet, most municipalities require designs and permits come through a licensed engineer. In some locations, if the wall is shorter than 4 feet, a permit may not be required. For the requirements in your area, contact your local government.

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

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.  

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

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.
