"Del Mar Landscaping has done various landscaping and construction jobs for us over the years, and we are always impressed by the results and so are our neighbors. Del Mar is understandably very busy but once they get started, they stay on site until the job is done. We highly recommend them."

"I went through half a dozen of landscaping contractors before selecting Taveraâ s Custom Landscaping for my new house in Lake Forest, California. (1) Beside his reasonable and competitive quote, (2) Mr. Tavera listened, stayed focused and provided design ideas/suggestions relevant to what my needs and wants rather than off-the-wall expensive fancy designs that other contractors usually pitch. (3) He kept the job good progress throughout the project, his people showed up to work every day. (4) He was easy to work with; during the project, I had few changes of heart, wanted to make some changes to the original plan, he was accommodating. (5) I will hire him again for my future projects and happy to recommend him to my friends"

"I had 2 walls built and they look great. I also had sod and drain lines installed and irrigation lines re-routed. That portion of the project did not go very smoothly. The work was not initially done to my satisfaction and some of it had to be re-done. I had some difficulty communicating with the work crew between my broken Spanish and their broken English. I believe that some of the problems may have been avoided with more site supervision of the work crew. Tom Berenguel was very accommodating and willing to do whatever needed to be done as problems arose. I can only recommend the company for masonry projects."

"I had a specific need to reinforce the footing of my retaining wall and address my slope erosion concerns. Most contractors turned this need into a whole variety of scenarios and circumstances way more than what I needed. Frank with Monte Vista Landscape completely understood and agreed with my concerns. The price was reasonable and within my ballpark. The team immediately got to work diligently and solved my drainage problem as well. They were very experienced and treated my property as if it were their own. I highly recommend Monte Vista Landscape for all outdoor needs."

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
