"I cannot sing praises enough. I have finally found a company that does what it promises when it promises. I already have plans to hire them again. I had damaged concrete decking that had to be broken out and repoured. No damage to any surrounding areas. Work was done timely and professionally. Additional wood reworking done seamlessly"

"We are super happy with their quality of work. We had originally hired them for a bathroom project, (ceramic tile, molding, painting, and plumbing). We loved the end result. We have continued to use their service on a regular basis for lawn care, pool maintenance, pressure washing, gutter repair, and shutter painting. We are so grateful that we have found these amazing people. I highly recommend them for any home project that you might have. They are also awesome people. Very easy to communicate with and very friendly. Their prices are very reasonable too."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’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 hardscaping is adding value to your home.

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.

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.  

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.
