"Mario and his team were excellent. When they arrived they started to work immediately removing the old bushes, trimming existing plants, clearing the beds, adding new plants/bushes , mulch and planting grass seeds. They even fixed a part of my brick wall that was missing some stones. They did a great job!"

"Brian and crew were great and efficient. My patio is perfect. There were a few minor issues with my foundation/yard but they were able to remedy everything and complete in scorching heat. They then smoothed out the dirt for a clean cohesive look ( post pic, i guess i should take another of completed). They were meticulous in measuring, pouring, leveling. Im excited to use my patio for entertainment. The cost was what I expected for the size and amount of work done through the whole process, including preparation of ground prior to pour. Would definitely use again."

"We used Chris Pope and his crew to do a yard clean up as a Chistmas gift for our family in Cincinnati. He came in and trimmed, pruned, weeded, raked, spread bark and hauled away debris. Our son-in-law said it was the best Christmas gift ever! The yard was transformed. Chris was thorough, effecient, and reasonably priced. We are very pleased with Chris Pope's service and would certainly use him again."

"Our walkway was in desperate need of a makeover. We hired this company and I am so thankful for the beautiful job they did. My husband debated doing it himself, but is thankful he decided to hire them. I will be hiring them for more jobs."

"It went great. He came up with a great design. They had themes cleaned up in no time. He came in $1,000. less than another bid from Creech's for the same work. Did some mulching at no charge, providing the mulch and having his guys spread it. Even replaced the shovel the first group stole with a band new one. I love my wall and people who visit, just rave about the work and the way it truned out."

"Dave and his crew is exemplary. They did an incredible job in excavating and providing a beautiful, new driveway. Our builder put in a very steep driveway that we couldn't use and Dave with his expertise helped us to redesign and we are thrilled with his work and the professionalism of his entire crew. I became attached to all of them because they truly care about their customer and that is very rare in the world that we currently live in. If you want the best at a reasonable price, then look no further. Dave and his crew is the man for the job."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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

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.  

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.
