"Overall good. The one area I wish were different is that pencil marks were placed on the wall to mark positions which I understand however they were erased and it left dirty eraser marks on the white wall which is very noticeable."

"I had exterior lights installed, drywall ceiling repair, shower tile repair and the tv mounted on wall. Kevin is prompt, friendly and most importantly very skilled with any of the work he and his crew do. They also clean up the work area so that you don’t even know they were there. Everything is perfect, I can’t say enough about how satisfied I am with the results. The thing that impresses me most is I had 4 very different jobs, and each one was completed like it was his area of expertise. They are very competitively priced on top of it all. I highly recommend The Handy Veteran- you won’t be disappointed"

"Robert did an absolutely amazing job! I had a small drywall repair job in my living room. Robert was great to talk to about what I was looking for and how much I wanted to spend. He was not pushy at all. He responded quickly and was able to do the work within a few days of my request. His work was great too! He got the job done in less time than expected and told me everything I needed to do to finish the job, which was what I requested. I look forward to hiring Robert again in the future!"

"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."

"We had cracks and shifting in a few places on our ceilings and walls. We hired Michael to fix the drywall, and paint walls, baseboards and ceilings. He was able to start the project two days later. His expertise ensured that the proper materials and paints were used. He also provided some good advice with color. The crew (Joe, Larry and Bob) did an excellent job and the final result looks great. There were no delays and I didn't have to put up any money upfront."

"I called Taulant on a Tuesday late afternoon and within an hour he came by to look at what I needed done and was back as we agreed on Thursday to repair some drywall in my basement and paint. He did an excellent job with the drywall repair and painting. He’s very professional and lays down tarps and cleaned up each day. I’m looking forward to hiring him for my next project! Dave"

"We used Eric and his team to give our house a complete face-lift...new kitchen, new bathrooms, wood floors, new doors, window framing, painting, can lights...I'm sure there is more that I am forgetting. They did AMAZING work! Eric and his guys are professional, the communication was great, the finishing touches elite, and the job was finished on the date he said it would be done (which is unheard of). I recommend Eric to all of my friends and I will continue to use him for projects that come up in our house."

"I would highly recommend Radek! His estimate is very detailed explaining the work to be done and materials included. He was so meticulous in everything he did! He explains everything he will do in detail, making sure you understand any choices to be made without pushing you toward any particular choice or product. He was always on time and very respectful of my home and neighbors in my condo while working. Radek painted my living room and dining room, replaced baseboards, installed and painted new interior doors, installed new shelving in my entry closet and replaced wall switches and outlets. He went above and beyond searching for the best solution at the best price for a very small closet door that was not easy to find! He was happy to add on a few things that were not in his original estimate. (I.e. wall switches, closet shelves). I am so grateful to have found an honest, respectful, hard working contractor that does excellent work! I will be calling Radek again when I begin work in the other rooms of my condo!"

Wall Repair FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, including patterns, finishes, and plant integration for aesthetic enhancement.

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

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.  

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.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.
