"They are a newer company so they are still finding their footing in the industry. They are a bit rough around the edges but are all great people. They listened to what I wanted. Offered suggestions and worked together as a team to do what needed done. Their work quality was great and the only delays we had were due to bad weather. They communicated well and overall I had a great experience. I would certainly recommend them to anyone I spoke to."

"This company did extensive repairs to a problem I had with my concrete slab which caused my hardwood flooring to pop up. The owner of this company did extensive research on the flooring problem before it was installed. Along with this problem, they also installed a new roof, new tile shower, new privacy fence and gates. The owner and his workers were very kind, professional and caring at all times. I feel I have found a contractor for life along with his workers. This owner went over and above to help me with many things that were going on. He will be contracted to do some major concrete work and repairs on a warehouse we own and I feel very confident that the work will be done to perfection and I will have less stress due to his character and concerns for doing a great job."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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.  

Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like. 

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

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.
