"Absolutely super!!! Gary was prompt, pleasant, quiet, quick and does BEAUTIFUL work! The wall patching was zip-zip-zip and looks great. The vanity was caulked perfectly and looks great. He had to do some corrective work on the door jamb we were having trimmed and did not add on for that; and the painting was beautiful. We did not have all the materials on hand for the originally-quoted work and Gary deducted an appropriate amount from the bill. YES, we will hire them again, and will specifically ask for Gary."

"I first contacted Ed’s Drywall on Thursday 11/3 looking for a small project in our garage. Ed gave us a reasonable estimate on Friday. I needed to move stuff to allow his installers to get to the walls. I was ready on Wednesday 11/9. Ed completed the project today, Friday 11/11. He was on time, cleaned up and did a really nice job. It was a great experience. I highly recommend him!"

"They are perfectionists, and the work is beautiful. Had not painted some rooms in 20 years. Spent 80% of time prepping walls and sanding to make beautiful. Tried to clean up as they went, but still dust on everything because of the extent of the work needed. Would hire back in an instant."

"Eddie patched two areas in the ceiling. You cannot tell. He identified additional areas that needed to be repaired (and stayed with the original estimate), carefully inserted the patches, applied multiple layers of joint compound and a layer of tape, patiently allowing the joint compound to dry between each layer, sanded and applied prime paint over the area. He was neat and cleaned up during and after the project was finished. He was honest in his appraisal and sincere in his desire that I be satisfied with the job. Highly recommend him."

"Francisco and his team did a fabulous job on our drywall repair. He went above and beyond to repair the hole and prepare the wall for future painting. He is skilled and knowledgeable. We are hiring him to do additional flooring and painting work in our new home."

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.  

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.

Proper design and construction prevent erosion and add structural stability to landscapes.

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.
