"I hired this company to design my backyard landscape and they did a fantastic job. The designer was creative and came up with a beautiful plan that incorporated all of my ideas. 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."

"Luis was the first to respond to our request for quote. He was prompt and showed up on time. He listened to our ideas and gave some of his own. We ended up with the perfect solution of a low retaining wall around the yard edge and defining a play area around our grand babies play set. We also added a higher retaining wall and garden planter on one side of the yard and a stand alone 3 x 12 veggie garden planter for me. Luis was always on time or called if there was a schedule change (we had rain and a couple of sick days) He told us up front he wasn’t the cheapest nor the most expensive and he lived up to his word. We finished on time and on budget, hard to do these days but communication was the key. By the time the project was done we knew we had a new friend as well as a trusted professional. We strongly recommend you go with these guys, they put their heart and soul into their work!!!!!!!!! The first two photos are before and the others are after."

"It took us almost a year to be able to get our retaining wall done. Kristian and Quetzal Landscaping did a fantastic job including dealing with our neighbor and his concerns. We are moving out of the area, however, if we stayed and needed another wall built Kristian would be our go-to guy. Thank you so much Kristian."

Replacing rocks in driveway with pavers. It looks fantastic. Will hire again to install artificial turf in yard. Thanks Steve and team!"

"I couldn't be more pleased. He was the only person that gave us a written quote and performed the job beyond what was expected. In fact we actually negotiated a slightly lower price that his initial quote, but because his crew went the extra mile and did things that were not on the quote we paid him the original quoted price. I highly recommend him."

"Great in every way!! Started Dec 19 and worked like Santa's elves. They arrive at 7:30 and work til 5:30 and bring their lunch and drinks. They are organized, diligent and Greg is honest and provides great value ( he was half my first estimate to save my pool from going down the hill!) Mine was a specialized concrete project and the slabs had to be jacked up and 85 bags of concrete had to be put under the slabs to form a retaining wall. Then they built a deck and put together a large gazebo. Everything went so well I hired them to finish off my garage and they did THAT quickly and for a good price. Being GREEK descent, Greg knows how to make atone and concrete and rooms that will LAST. He also fixed some plumbing that another handyman did that didn't work. He is pleasant, amenable to changes . I give him a five on everything he does!! Carrie in UTC/UCSD area"

"We love the work completed by the employees of San Diego Premier Outdoor. They did a fantastic job of paving all sides of our home, redoing a 30 year old backyard, and creating a cool oasis in which to enjoy outdoor living. Our dog thinks it was all done for her. (see photos) Emily listened to what we wanted redone, and with her creative design ideas, fashioned areas that were beyond our wildest expectations! We just keep walking around and smiling. Andy and his crew of expert craftsmen worked non stop. Neighbors came by daily to find out what was being done and all commented on the work ethic of the crew. Emily came to the site at least twice a day and kept in constant touch as to what was happening and what was to be done next. The paver and light installation that now surround our home, pet turf installation, pergola, and an old wall that needed to be stuccoed and capped were completed to perfection. This is an honest company that is reasonable priced, easy to work with, and strives to meet the customerâ  s wishes. They are reliable, on time, and deliver on their promises. Emily has a a high degree of integrity that is accompanied by a great sense of humor. We highly recommend San Diego Premier Outdo/Users/myralfluty/Desktop/IMG_1424.pdfor. /Users/myralfluty/Desktop/IMG_1421.pdf/Users/myralfluty/Desktop/IMG_1418.pdf Myra F."

"Noe gave us an extremely competitive price for a concrete block wall. He and his employee did a great job and went out of their way to get the job done quickly and efficiently. He also repaired a drainage pipe and made it usable again by stepping it down in size and extending it out past the wall. We would absolutely hire him again without hesitation. They did a great job and the wall looks awesome!"

"The install was amazing, and the workmanship was great. I would highly recommend Evo Turf for pavers. I did not get Turf but I'm considering a putting green in the future.

I 100% recommend Evo Turf. 5 Star operation.

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. 

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.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your hardscaping is adding value to your home.

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.
