"We wanted a new, bigger patio, and L.A.J.E Bros, LLC did a GREAT job. They were very responsive, answered all questions, and provided options to choose from. They were easy to work with, worked with my schedule, and cleaned up when done. We will definitely hire again if the need arises and will recommend L.A.J.E Bros, LLC to others."

"Alex with Diaz Fencing was very punctual and easy to work and communicate with. He came out for the consultation and knew exactly what would be best for our yard. We had been trying to figure out how to do the project ourself for a year since buying our home, but we had a pretty steep decline in the back of our property that would cause the fence to be un level if not fixed properly. Alex suggested doing a retaining wall, and did so in a very cost effective yet still safe and great looking way. He even added solar lights to the decorative steps he created as a bonus without mentioning it. We also asked him to remove an old section of fence and build a decorative gate which he did at no extra cost and made look great. Diaz Fencing also got the work done fast! They completed our retaining wall in a day, and then completed the entire fence project the next. I 100% recommend Diaz Fencing for your fencing project, and am looking to hire them again for more projects to come!"

"Alex and his crew did a beautiful job on our existing deck floor. They were professional and courteous. I would have given them a Five Star Rating, but my contract also included installing one window shutter which had to be special ordered. Our deck floor was completed and the final payment was paid before the window shutter arrived. I called Southside Construction several times for someone to come back to hang my window shutter and complete the contract, but to no avail."

"Paul and Shaquana were great to work with to replace a portion of our sidewalk. Took a little longer than expected, due to an issue with the county that was out of their control. But they communicated well and completed the job with high quality. Would definitely recommend and use them again."

"Patrick and his team were wonderful to work with for our stone and brick repointing! They came on time as scheduled for both the quote (which was very fair for the work that needed done) and actual work start date. The work they did looks amazing, and they took care to make the new sections of mortar have the same style as the old sections on our beautiful Victorian. Patrick even pointed out several other issues (some of which we were aware of), and prioritized them based on severity. We will happily be hiring them again for our masonry needs!"

"Gary Pieretti built a 32 foot retaining wall with pressure treated lumber. The wall turned out exactly how I envisioned it, at a reasonable cost. He was flexible and professional and left my property much better than he found it."

"It went great! ​The Clark team is fantastic! I could only find one company to install my wood burning fireplace incert but they quoted me more than double the price. I was so happy to hear about Clark Chimney & Madonry, they did a great job for less than half price. Chris was very professional, and efficient and his team were great! Thank you"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can use cinder blocks for many purposes, including retaining walls, foundations, garage walls, and fences. Building a cinder block retaining wall costs between $60 and $200 per linear foot, including materials and professional labor. For a 30-foot-long retaining wall, the cost ranges from $1,800 to $6,000.

A retaining wall can only function as a fence if it’s high enough on all sides to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the pool. However, most retaining walls retain dirt, which means their purpose is not related to safety. There would need to be nothing on the other side of the wall for it to be considered a fence, but in that case, it wouldn’t retain anything and would cease to be a retaining wall.  

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.

Most retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.
