"I'd add more stars if I could; one of the best contractor experiences I've had. Punctual, reliable, exceptional quality work. This was for a brick patio - they used steel in the concrete, put down a solid concrete base, and when doing curved work they cut the bricks instead of filling gaps with mortar."

"I hired Isaac to redo a previous job by another company that was left unfinished and a big mess. He was very knowledgeable about what to do with my driveway and he and his employees were polite, professional and extremely hard working. He wanted to make sure everything was done right and I appreciated that. I felt his prices were very fair and I am so happy with my new driveway it is such a relief to finally have the driveway I wanted. I would recommend Issac to anyone that wants a dependable company that does excellent work."

"Their bid was extremely well detailed. I know nothing about retaining walls and was able to follow and understand all of their proposal. Their finished work is exactly what I wanted. The crew, AK-crew, was professional and kind. The only issue I had was the waiting period for getting the necessary supplies. I felt that communication was less than expected during that time - but that may only be me. I'll need another retaining wall in my front yard and will be using this company again"

"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!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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

With foundation walls, the slab on grade and force at the top of the wall is resisted by flooring. With retaining walls, the force at the top of the wall is not resisted.

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.

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.
