"Eddie and his crew did a fantastic job rebuilding the wing walls and pouring new concrete steps at our house. From bidding to contract to work and cleanup, E&B were easy to work with and provided excellent results. Would definitely hire again."

Customers say: Super punctual

"J.D. was fantastic, we stated with a quick design consultation for a modest price to test the waters. J.D. showed up, was personable and extremely knowledgeable of his field. J.D. made my wife and I to feel very comfortable throughout the design and installation processes.
J.D. and his crew began on schedule and was flexible when we needed to change dates (and some plans) based on a new fence we were putting in, as well as delays due to weather.
J.D. discovered a tree in our yard was a "weed-tree" which could be damaging to the new landscaping/sod, as well as the garden we were putting in; he recommended a tree removal service whose costs were on par with other services in the area and within 1 day the tree was gone.
J.D's crew was very courteous and friendly when on-site, always a tip of the hat and a wave with a smile. J.D. is the designer and actually does overseas the implementation of the design, and is not afraid to throw a little mulch around.
My wife and I are ecstatic with the work he and his crew did, we just wish we had more green-space for him to work on.
You should absolutely hire this company, even if you don't really need the work done.

"Rene & his crew are wonderful folks who know what they are doing. The had everything prepped and ready to go in a day and concrete was poured the next two days. The driveway is absolutely beautiful and I can’t wait to see my new garage in its new location. Thank you Rene! I will definitely hire him when I need the rest of my drive paved!!"

"Tony is a very talented & resourceful Mason. He was very upfront and clear about what he would do & how much it would cost. He researched at 4 different brick suppliers to find an exact match that I needed for my 11 year old brick facade, and also managed to get enough supply (most places had discontinued that brick), to get the work done. He is very reasonable and does a very high quality job. I would not hesitate to hire him again if needed, and would definitely recommend him to anyone else."

"We had such a great experience and I can’t recommend them enough! From start to finish, they were responsive, reliable, professional and incredibly easy to work with. They took the time to understand what we wanted, offered great recommendations and really cared about making sure everything looked right. Our landscaping turned out beautifully and made such a difference in our yard. It’s hard to find people who are both great at what they do and genuinely wonderful to work with, and that was absolutely our experience. We will definitely be using them again!"

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

Generally, a railroad tie retaining wall consisting of a single line of ties should be between 3 and 4 feet tall—and the height often tops out at around 6 feet. You can go taller, but you may need additional footings and reinforcements, including a second layer of railroad ties to support the added weight of the soil it’s holding back.

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.  

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.

They prevent soil erosion, add flat space, and enhance property aesthetics.

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.
