"We had a totally pleasant experience with Regnier Concrete - from beginning (sales call) to end (completion of project.) Our sales rep answered all our questions and the crew that did the installation was excellent. They were on time every day, courteous, answered questions, made smart suggestions and ideas, worked until the project was completed each day and cleaned up more than thoroughly. For concrete work that's saying something! We would highly recommend Regnier Concrete to anyone interested in installing a concrete patio with a stamped concrete border, which was the project we hired them for."

"Responded right away and got the job done quickly, and at a reasonable price. I was not there personally, but the person who was also reported they were friendly and professional. My only hesitation in writing this review is I don't want them to get too much work because I want to use them again in the future!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

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.

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.

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.
