"I needed some landscaping refreshed that Aerate 1 had done for me a couple of years ago. A tree and bushes were trimmed. Rocks were raised from the soil and replaced and slabs were raised and replaced Two flower beds were cleaned up and new mulch was replaced by a tree in the parkway. Mulch was added in all areas. Another area by front steps was cleaned up and leveled and mulch added. Hector came with the crew to explain everything and left. The crew did exactly what they were suppose to do. Afterward they did a good job of cleaning up the area."

"J&P was great to work with. Juan was very responsive to my emails and all my questions. He made good recommendations to improve our landscaping but wasn’t pushy. He got us on the schedule quickly, and the work was done promptly. In three days they had installed a new brick paver wall, completely reset and properly leveled our paver patio, trimmed/cleaned up all planting beds and put down new mulch. They even built a small pathway in our garden with our leftover brick. His team was professional and quick! Pricing was competitive. We have had several complements from the neighbors already - thanks J&P!"

"I am so pleased with the work Ignacio and Kevin did on my project! We are in the process of selling our house and needed to get the yard in tiptop shape for pictures and an open house. I met with several landscapers I found on Angi’s website, and explained the situation. They were all great, but when I met with Kevin, his professionalism and his understanding of the situation truly impressed me! Kevin and Ignacio, began the project within two days of our first meeting and completed everything in 48 hours! My yard is beautiful! Thank you so much 4 Brothers Landscaping! Kevin and Ignacio are such lovely gentlemen! I will definitely use them again!!"

"Indy & his men were just wonderful, did outstanding work on our patio, sidewalk, stoop & around our trees. We felt they were a great value for the money. They completed the job on time & within the estimate. Indy is very easy & fair to work with & I'd hire him for a 2nd job without fail."

"EXCELLENT!!! We cannot say enough good things about this company, the owner and all the workers!!! From start to finish everything was perfect - I cannot remember the last time I said that about any contractor.  They started and finished on time even though we had bad storms moving through the area multiple times.  The owner, Roger is extremely conscientious about the work being done as well as making sure the customer is happy.  The price was more than fare and the end result was beautiful.  The crew was very polite and very neat and VERY hard working.  It is obvious throughout the whole process that Roger takes pride in his work and it looks like it.  I wish I could remember all of the little things that Rodger and his crew did that were not in the contract and not required but they paid attention to every detail!!  We already have an estimate for more work next spring and told Roger to expect a call.  I only wish that Roger did interior work as well because he is a perfectionist and a pleasure to work with.

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

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.

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.  

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

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.
