"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 FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the 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.

Installation typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the wall’s size and site conditions.
