"Kolbie Holocker and his crew did grading and landscaping work in my backyard after it was torn up from sewer line repairs. They did exactly what I asked them to do. They leveled out the affected area, planted grass seed and put down straw. I was kept informed as to when they could do the work and they actually got to it sooner than I expected. They did a great job and I would definitely recommend the company to family and friends! Very good experience."

It’s a good responsable company and really good quote better then larger company’s. Free estimates for everyone

"This man ripped my mother off, he took her $1250 down payment which was half of the cost he quoted. He never provided receipts for the supposed $750 worth of mulch he claimed to buy. When she asked for her money back he got defensive and said he would give it back when he found someone else who needed that much mulch. He was supposed to return the money on 5/9/25 but then said he was in Mexico. He has sent my mom threatening messages about me writing the previous negative review. Now he is not answering our calls. HE IS A FRAUD, I HAVE SPOKEN TO OTHER OLDER WOMEN WHO HE HAS DONE THIS TO!!! PLEASE BEWARE OF THIS SCAM ARTIST. His initial response was I don't need you guys' money. So where is it then? He sent my mother texts demanding that she sign paperwork that his lawyer drafted stating that he returned the money, because "you people" might lie on me. He is a liar and has NOT RETURNED MY MOM'S MONEY. He has changed his company name too, it was L&Q Landscaping I believe. Please avoid this scammer."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional installation ensures structural integrity and durability for larger walls.

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.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its particular material, whether it was properly installed, how well it’s maintained, and your local climate. Concrete, stone, and brick retaining walls last the longest, with concrete lasting between 50 and 100 years on average. Brick tends to last the longest, with a minimum of one century, under the right conditions. 

Timber retaining walls can start to deteriorate at 20 years, depending on the wood quality, but in the best case, they can last 40 years. Pressure-treated wood retaining walls last 30 years on average.
