Customers say: True professional

"We can’t say enough about the wonderful experience we’ve had with Natural Vibrations. The owners are extremely professional, hardworking and excellent designers. When people walking by our house make comments like, “we just love your charming front yard,” that’s when we realized we made a great decision hiring Kris and Aaron. In addition to planting a garden of vibrant perennials, they also built a custom stone wall as well as a unique trellis over the garage door for our home in the San Carlos hills. If you’re considering a landscape renovation, look no further."

"Amazing people! We just finished Two bathrooms & Full Lanscaping basically Full House remodel with Jean and very happy with the result. Already recommended Geico Builders to our neighbors. Pros: 1. Reasonable pricing. We quoted about eight reputable contractors, and Geico B. cost estimation is one the more competitive ones. 2. Great PM and communication: Our PM Carlos and Jean is such a joyful, communicative, and accommodating professional. They made the whole process much easier. 3. Great foremen and workers: they showed up daily, worked hard, and generally kept the area as tidy as possible. Our foreman Delmar is very experienced and also a great person to work with. The work quality seems great too (tile work is amazing up to a small details). 4. Our Pavers & Retaining walls and all Lanscaping looks amazing I can’t wait to start to play our favorite game which was proposed to install by Jean thank you for the best idea ever. Thanks again Geico Builders, we will keep you as our primary family builders."

They provided a detailed plan and were able to work within my budget. The installation team was professional and the work was completed on time. I highly recommend this service for anyone looking to enhance their outdoor living 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!"

"Mud Worx did a fantastic job for us. We chose stamped and colored concrete for our driveway expansion and it ties well with our freshly painted home. They were quick and worked very well together. Their team was very helpful and knowledgeable. They worked so well that my neighbor was amazed at their work and decided to get his driveway expanded as well. They were recommended by a family friend and decided to go with them because the patio they had done transformed my friends back yard. We’re very happy with their work. You won’t regret contracting them."

"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. They did an amazing job with the lighting and the drip system as well."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

If you've decided you'd like to skip the cost of restoring a brick exterior wall after considering whether you should repair or replace brick on your house, you can consider installing fiber cement siding over brick for a cost of $2 to $6 per square foot. When done properly, cement siding over brick offers a durable, low-maintenance option that can actually reduce your home's energy costs. It's also attractive. However, improper installation or installation over heavily compromised brick can cause water damage. 

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.

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.

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.

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