"These guys are pros! I couldnâ t believe they donâ t have more reviews. I found these folks through Angiâ s List. I had an existing fence which was build by not licensed contractor and fell off in a year time. When Iâ ve met supervisor Julio and our project manager Mila I had a doubt that someone can get this job done on 100% which they did on 120%! Communication with in project was great. Quality of the job is outstanding I know for now this retaining wall & fence will stay here forever since I saw how many rebarâ s & concrete and digging was involved. I will definitely recommend Geico Builders team & management to everyone."

"Jose Guzman’s work is top notch and he couldn’t be a nicer person to work with. Jose and his crew dug deep into the ground around my house and installed a French drain. They repaved my sidewalk and driveway, and repaired concrete around my house after the drainage plan was installed. The soil was hard and rocky, it was tough work, and they dug at least as deep as necessary, or even more. These are honest, extremely hard-working guys. My house sits at the bottom of a hill, and water now flows seamlessly into the street rather than into my garage. Later, I hired them to remove backyard concrete and install new stone work - both steps and a flat area. The work is absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much!"

"We hired Pavers Express to give our backyard a makeover with a porcelain patio and artificial grass. From our initial consultation until the project was complete, their customer service was excellent and they helped to guide us in material selection to make sure our vision would be carried out. The team was professional, easy to communicate, and their installation process was very efficient. Highly recommend!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

Regular inspection for issues like cracks or leaning and ensuring drainage stays clear.

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.

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.

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.
