"Old mulch was taken up including the liner. There were no weeds growing through the old mulch. My husband said to the worker don t you need to put down liner so the weeds don t come through, , the worker said no it will be fine. Just 3 months later weeds are everywhere you can barely see the mulch. I have downloaded pictures. If he would have listened we would not be where we are today. Then he was suppose to fill in the pond with rocks because I didn t want a pond a week later after a heavy rain the pond was back. All the money I paid for those rocks fell to the bottom. I was told by a contractor that he needed to add sand or dirt and pack it. The rain went right through the rocks.I paid him 3200.00 dollars and he had the nerves to say we chose the cheap way well what is the cheap way wanting weeds to grow all over the place and a pond with water just sitting there. 3 months later I m filing a complaint 3200.00 dollars for 3 months is highway robbery. We never said anything about cheap way 3200.00 dollars is not cheap, guess he had to come up with something. He shouldn t have taken on a job he couldn t do. When I called him he said there was no way the pond would stay dry we have to pump water out every time it rained. I couldn t believe he said that. Then he says we have to pull weeds out the mulch every time they grow this man is nuts. So I m here can t sit in my back because the mosquitoes are bad because of the standing water. The weeds are everywhere and he won t even reply anymore. He said he would come when another contractor comes never came. I told him to call my son which he said he would never did.I can t believe it. He just took our hard earned money and said I don t care what s going on I was paid. I m so angry because I trusted him he seemed like a nice guy but turned evil on us. I m disabled on a fixed income put a project off to pay him and this is how he treated us. He never even came by to speak with us that s terrible."

I do everything inside and out. I have 7 years of carpentry experience and have worked as a carpenter in the military. I can do stairs, decks, siding, cabinets, trim, doors, windows, shelving, some auto repairs, anything else you can name. I will also build furniture, cutting boards, or any other specialty items. I am married with 2 children and I am currently a full time Firefighter with 2 out of 3 days off so I have plenty of time to work for you.

"I was extremely pleased. The young man was on time, polite and efficient. I look forward to calling him for future home projects."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

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.
