Q: What happens if you don't backfill a retaining wall?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t backfill a retaining wall&mdash;either at all or adequately enough&mdash;the wall won&rsquo;t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hardscape-features-bring-value-landscape.htm">hardscaping is adding value to your home</a>.</p></div>

Q: Does a 2-foot retaining wall need drainage?

• <div><p>Each design is different, so we can&rsquo;t say definitively if you&rsquo;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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/beginning-home-gardening-guide.htm">outdoor garden projects</a>.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a permit for a retaining wall?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Are there decorative options for retaining walls?

• <div><p>Yes, including patterns, finishes, and plant integration for aesthetic enhancement.</p></div>

Q: Why hire a professional to install retaining walls?

• <div><p>Proper design and construction prevent erosion and add structural stability to landscapes.</p></div>

The process went well. The workers explained the amount of work required to get the walls in our older home shimmed to accommodate the required flat surface for the shower surround. Once that process was completed the rest of the work seemed to speed up. They asked specifically where the grab...

No other outlets in the home were experiencing water flow issues. We had attempted to replace the cartridge valve ourselves, which resulted in a stripped out set screw in the shower handle. So, the first thing he had to do was clean up our mess. Upon investigation, the valve wasn't the problem,...

They were very good, they stuck to the job, and they had done a good job. We haven't had any problems with it since it was installed. For price, they were comparable because we had 3 estimates.

Excellent job! Would definitely use again. Sean is honest and professional which unfortunately is very rare in this day and age. He replaced my bent track and installed a metal bar on the top of my garage door so it wouldn't sag in the center. My door works better than ever. Thanks!!!!! A+++
