Geico Builders specializes in meeting your expectations before, during, and after the project is complete. Our most upstanding quality is our accountability--you can expect us to own the work we complete for your home. Of course, we know accountability means nothing without proof, which is why we are happy to offer a 2-year workmanship warranty to all of our clients. This is a rare quality for this industry, but we wanted to prove to you that we stand by our craftsmanship through our home remodeling construction services. Every Crew at Geico Builders has been professionally trained and will treat your home with integrity and respect.

"We recently had our kitchen and bathroom completely renovated by Geico Builders, and the transformation is beyond what we imagined! After with several other contractors, we decided to go with them and it was the best decision we mage. Mila, our project manager, was fantastic from day one. As first-time remodelers, we had a lot of questions, but Mila guide through every stage with patience and professionalism. The communication was consistent, and any concern we had was handled right away. The team even helped us refine our design ideas and brought them to life with a stunning 3D preview before construction began. Everyone we worked was friendly, organized, and clearly passionate about what they do. The finished kitchen and bathroom are both beautiful and functional exactly what we were hoping for. We couldn't be happier and highly recommend Geico Builders to anyone planning a home remodel!"

"Wow! I can't stop peering into my back yard to view the flagstone patio Pavers Express finished yesterday. It is beautiful. Interviewed and got quotes from several companies. This was the only company to give me a quote for flagstone (as I requested) instead of concrete pavers that the other companies were pushing. I wanted flagstone. Mike was great from first meet to the end. He came by to check on the progress each step to ensure we understood the process and what was next. The demolition team and the design teams were great, professional, competent, courteous and cleaned up everything. We were a real challenge as no outside entry to back yard. I am so glad I found and choose Pavers Express."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Through proper drainage solutions and compacting the foundation soil.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its particular material, whether it was properly installed, how well it’s maintained, and your local climate. Concrete, stone, and brick retaining walls last the longest, with concrete lasting between 50 and 100 years on average. Brick tends to last the longest, with a minimum of one century, under the right conditions. 

Timber retaining walls can start to deteriorate at 20 years, depending on the wood quality, but in the best case, they can last 40 years. Pressure-treated wood retaining walls last 30 years on average.

Yes, including patterns, finishes, and plant integration for aesthetic enhancement.

Poured concrete is likely the cheapest way to build a retaining wall, as this material costs anywhere from $6 to $8 per square foot. The next best budget-friendly option is to use landscaping timbers. These timbers are great for DIY projects, as they don’t require tools to successfully build a retaining wall. Landscape timber costs around $10 to $14 per square foot. Depending on your chosen garden style, you can also go with natural stones or concrete blocks. Natural stones can be expensive if you buy them, but they’re a lot less costly if you can source them from your property. 

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.
