"It went well. They consulted me to assure I was happy with the trimming. The clean-up was acceptable. The city of San Jose picks up all the green waste, but is a little fussy about the debris piles. I had to restack some of the piles to meet waste company's requirements."

"I was amazed of how a group of three persons under Jorge as a lead and delivered the best looking house with pavers installation by Jorge’s crew. They are not only professional, knowledge, commitment, extremely hardworking people I have never seen during my life time. Their work ethics is just plainly awesome and I considered them as “One-Of-A-Kind”. I know for sure they would be the first people that I will contact on my next project without hesitation. Thank you so much Jorge from the bottom of my heart. Wishing you and your team the best. Thanks again. Tin"

"The pro underbid the job. Still, he said he would take the loss. I asked him to look at receipts and we covered the extra materials. In the end the job was still lower than the other bids and accomplished on time. We replaced a failed TREX deck with concrete. The plastic decking had become soft, and flexed enough when walking on it that it became a trip hazard. There were two experienced and hard working crew. the younger relative was learning the paperwork, bidding and scheduling end of the job. The crew let him learn by experience and did not complain about his mistakes. The job was expertly done. Recent rains show that there are no low spots and everything is almost imperceptivity sloped to drain the surfaces into areas I had identified. All the work was done on time and all the demolition materials were stack out of the way and job site clean up was done daily. I am truly a satisfied customer."

"We had Jose install about 650 sq.ft. of turf and the workmanship and speed were truly exceptional. The only reason I rated the overall quality 4 stars was that getting in contact with him was difficult at best and I had no idea anything was even happening until he called me and said he would be there in the morning the following day. However, when Jose did show up the work took 2 days and the results were superb!"

"We worked with Ali (sales manager) and Tony (project manager), who took the time to design a project that made sense for our property and our budget, made a number of suggestions and recommendations and were never pushy or tried to "sell" us on something. The crew really went above and beyond to provide top quality workmanship and overall we were in very good hands. Highly recommended!"

"Jose has done an excellent job in planning and executing entire retaining wall job, including making suggestions to improve the design, which resulted in a superior end product. The crew kept the job site clean and safe during the entire construction. I would recommend JMS Cement Contractors. Alex V."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

They prevent soil erosion, add flat space, and enhance property aesthetics.

Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.

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