"In a word, Excellent!  If you are considering installation of pavers, walls, hard-scaping and landscaping then you should 
give Littleton Earthworks a call. 
Dan and his crew were professional, thoughtful, and courteous from start to finish. 
Our project took about 2 weeks to complete. I believe Dan came to our house at least 3 or 4 times to discuss the design 
Dan is easy to work with, listens well and is responsive. We traded many emails and calls throughout the project cycle.
We solved quite a few problems along the way and is a major transformation. Nothing but compliments so far! :-)
We are very pleased with the outcome and we plan to have more work done next spring. 
Best of all, the estimates and the actual/s were very close.
In some cases the final figures were under and as with any project we had cost over from additions and changes.
Very fair price, very detailed and focused on high quality with accurate pricing.

"Had Henry remove a 12-15 inch thick 5x5 slab of concrete that needed to be removed. He showed up very quickly and knocked it out in a few hours with cleanup and haul away. Very professional and keeps you updated the whole time. Highly recommend."

"A pleasure working with Miguel from start to finish. He came over to measure and give an estimate for the retaining wall in front of my home. Got the estimate later that day, along with pictures of similar projects his company had done. I chose his company and two days later he and his crew showed up on time, removed the old timber wall and installed a concrete block wall. I can't believe how beautiful my yard looks now. Torres Masonry is definitely my go-to for any future projects!"

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.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its material, installation quality, maintenance, and local climate, with an average range of 20 to 100 years. Retaining walls made from durable materials like concrete, stone, and brick generally last a minimum of 50 years. Concrete walls typically last between 50 and 100 years, while brick can last for over a century in ideal conditions. Timber retaining walls can last from 20 to 40 years, depending on the wood quality, and pressure-treated wood walls average around 30 years. It is important to note that a retaining wall can fail prematurely if it was poorly constructed, for example, with inefficient footings or without necessary rebar reinforcements.

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.

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.

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional installation ensures structural integrity and durability for larger walls.
