"Terrific! We took down a wall which had crown molding and other contractors wanted to cut out the remaining molding on the 3 remaining walls and square the ceiling. Step in - Zmartin who repaired the crown where the wall used to be, prepared a mold and extended the crown another 6 feet ending with a custom edge. They also leveled the ceiling which had a 1.5 inch pitch across only 12 inches as the ceiling height of the living room and dining room did not match. They chipped the ceiling away on each side and repaired it. Today you would have no idea where the wall used to be. The work is seamless. I have several tradesmen in my family including carpenters and painters and even they commented on the great work. The crown gives the kitchen such a unique look. Plaster work creates dust which is expected and they always did a great job on the clean up too."

"Rob was great he fixed our issue with the Dryer vent and also pointed out an issue with our the furnace and hot water tank venting system that was repaired with metal tapping of the edges without additional charge.

"Hired to replace 2 window screens on the second story of our home. Val found another one that needed replacing, and he did that one too, for no additional charge. He also fixed our kitchen light so that it stopped blinking when we first turned it on. Friendly, courteous, punctual and professional. Will be hiring again."

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.

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.

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.

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.

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.
