Q: Do you need a permit for a retaining wall?

• <div><p>Yes, to build a retaining wall, a permit is required. Similarly, any repairs or modifications to an existing retaining wall require permits. If the planned wall measures higher than 4 feet, most municipalities require designs and permits come through a licensed engineer. In some locations, if the wall is shorter than 4 feet, a permit may not be required. For the requirements in your area, contact your local government.</p></div>

Q: What are alternatives to a brick wall?

• <div><p>If you've decided you'd like to skip the cost of restoring a brick exterior wall after considering whether you should <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/repair-vs-replace-brick-on-house.htm">repair or replace brick on your house</a>, you can consider installing fiber cement siding over brick for a cost of <b>$2 to $6</b> 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. </p></div>

Q: Who do you hire to build a retaining wall?

• <div><p>There are contractors specifically trained in the design and construction of retaining walls. Retaining wall contractors are skilled at dealing with the soil on your property and assessing what kind of drainage should be installed. They will recommend the best materials to use for the project and can handle the processing of permits by local authorities.</p></div>

Q: How long do flood walls last?

• <div><p>The longevity of flood walls depends on how they were constructed, but most wood, gravel, and cement flood walls last 10 years. While aluminum flood walls may cost far more initially, they can be a good investment as they can last decades and will not be damaged by exposure to the elements.</p></div>

Q: What is the cheapest way to build a retaining wall?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

"Steve and his crew installed (2) pre-hung fiberglass exterior doors. They did a great job of making sure everything fit and also did a very good job around the trim of the doors outside and inside. Steve will also do some pre-hung solid core doors throughout our home. When this is done I'm sure that it will be done with quality and care as he has shown on the exterior doors. By having these exterior doors complete we are able to seal up the house as before with the old doors they were hung incorrectly and we were able to see through the seals and allowed air to escape."
