"In order to install, they had to demo the old windows and re-create the openings to fit the new windows, as well as replace some siding. They did an excellent job, at a reasonable price for the amount of work it entailed."

My husband and I cannot say enough about how happy we are with the service and outcome of our yard.  We pride ourselves on doing things ourselves; however, when the owners of Fresh Cut showed us photos of their own backyard, we really started getting interested in hearing about what their ideas would be for our backyard.  They invited us to see their backyard in person so that we could compare size and proportions of yards and we absolutely fell in love with their yard.  We were originally only planning on doing landscaping around our pool but when we saw how, when looking at their yard, your eyes take you from the house to the complete back portion of their yard, we knew we wanted to do something very similar with our yard.  Upon walking out of their back door, their beautiful pergola, pavers and landscaping around them lead you to an eye-catching fire-pit and outdoor oasis. We already had a pool but they helped us map out a similar plan for the flow of our backyard.  The truly amazing part is how their work actually made our yard look so much bigger than it already was.  We started with just a pool and ended with a total transformation.  We get constant compliments on our yard and know that the investment will not only give us years of happiness, but it will also greatly increase our property value.  We are in the process of adding a separate paver area with fire-pit, landscaping, and outdoor furniture to increase our seating and to be able to fully enjoy our yard even during the cold months. Major or minor, I would definitely recommend Fresh Cut to anyone looking to beautify their yard.

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.

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.

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 retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.

Through proper drainage solutions and compacting the foundation soil.
