"It was great.  They kept me involved at all times giving me names of plants so I could look them up (I know NOTHING about plants).  They arrived when scheduled and have kept in touch to make sure all the plants are doing OK.  They even chased down my little dog who decided to escape the day they were working (which is no easy task!)!  I would recommend this company to anyone and I will have them back to work on other sections of my yard.  I couldn't be more pleased.

"A difficult experience. Work was fence repair and clean gutters. 3 men came, one was the driver who insisted on waiting inside my home. There he sat for the duration. My partner was away on business, so I was a woman alone (target?) The talker actively negotiated a price. I stood fairly firm, but now think I paid too much. I was told to write the check to cash. No receipt. The "owner" called a few times to check on things. Said the van had broken down, hence the driver. The work was ok, one of the workers got stung by wasps, I supplied a topical medicine. The talker needed: a drill (I didn't have one, they came up with one), an extension cord, screws (I brought out my toolbox), etc. Talker engaged me many times outside while the driver sat in my living room (a complete stranger to me). Talker was a fast talker and said things like "want me to go buy some wasp spray for you?" (I was out). I knew there would be an up-price, and was starting to feel hustled. When it was time to write the check, I went to the back. At that very moment the driver asked to use the facilities. I showed him where, and left him alone to engage with the talker. They basically had me running back and forth. The work on the fence was OK, some of it shoddy. for example, the screws were haphazardly placed, most sticking out (not flat with the wood). Some broken pickets were overlooked. Some pickets were split from their work. The gate repair was good (they used my own spare wood). I would not engage them again for the above reasons."

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.

With foundation walls, the slab on grade and force at the top of the wall is resisted by flooring. With retaining walls, the force at the top of the wall is not resisted.

The longevity of flood walls depends on how they were constructed, but most wood, gravel, and cement flood walls last 10 years. While aluminum flood walls may cost far more initially, they can be a good investment as they can last decades and will not be damaged by exposure to the elements.

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.
