"During the crazy winter, we had a water pipe burst in our old house, circa 1850. Once the pipes were repaired and water-damaged walls and ceilings were removed, John took care of all the plastering repairs. He was so prompt with his replies, easy to schedule, showed up when he said he would, and did such excellent work. Not only that, he was a pleasure to have around -- so friendly and kind!"

"I hired Bob to do repairs and renovation of a condo rental unit. He renovated the bathroom with new tiles, replacing bathroom rotten wood frame window with a vinyl frame, installing new light fixtures and repairing bathroom plumbing, repairing torn screens, as well as repainting interior walls and trim throughout the unit and installing new shades throughout. He also plastered water-damaged ceilings and cleaned and organized the basement storage area. On the exterior he replaced a rotted window frame and missing clapboards, then patched and painted the wall. Bob arrived early each day and worked diligently. Bob is a great problem solver and works with you to suggest ways to do repairs for the best outcome while keeping costs down. His work is high quality. I would definitely hire him again."

Customers say: True professional

"We hired Hilario's Construction to build a retaining wall. The retaining wall is holding up the driveway so it was very important that a strong wall was built. Tomas and his crew demolished the old wall, removed the debris from the property, and constructed a new retaining wall. The work they performed was outstanding. The wall is strong and very attractive. They took the time to color match the stones with the side wall and installed drains to prevent water from building up behind the wall. What was originally a wall of cement and an eye sore became a beautiful stone wall that now adds character to my backyard. After the wall was completed, Tomas and his crew cleaned up the entire area, no small pebbles, cement, or debris of any kind was left behind. They even filled in cracking in another area of my yard. I highly recommend Tomas and his crew to anyone seeking an honest, experienced company specializing in masonry work. We would hire them again in a heartbeat!"

"I selected Ferraz Plastering off Angi’s list. It was a plaster repair job due to a hole in the roof causing water damage. After the wet material was removed, Erick came in reinsulated the ceiling and did great job on the plastering. Also they painted all the walls even though it was only necessary to paint two of the walls. He also made sure the insulation completely covered the exposed area to the roof. I would recommend Erick again for any ceiling, painting or plastering job!"

"I had removed the tile backsplash which left the wall damaged, and selected a contractor, but I received multiple calls from other contractors but not the one I selected. The site gives you the impression you can select a specific company, but you get everyone except the one selected. I find their site to be misleading. I finally chose Master Plastering Services Inc. (Marcio Morais Jr). The manager came by to quote the job and told me they would install sheetrock and plaster. So, I removed all the decorative molding under the cabinets and pushed out all the electrical boxes to allow for the sheetrock. When the plasters arrived, they told me they would not be installing sheetrock. This was upsetting, to say the least, because the sheetrock would have filled in the area where I removed the decorative molding which could not be reinstalled. Then above the sink, they started to peel off the wallpaper which was not part of the quote. If that was not enough before they left, they pointed out that they did not have a trowel to fit between the wall and electrical box so I would need to fix that myself or have the painter repair it. Again, not happy. Lastly, after the snow melted I found a clump of plaster dumped on my lawn. I would not recommend this company."

"Dan and the team at EA Masonry did a great job in constructing a 4 ft x 40 ft retaining wall at the back of my property in West Roxbury. They constructed out of allen block and installed a drainage system behind the wall. They also replaced my front walkway. All work was completed in 3-4 days. They were very reasonably priced compared to other quotes I received and, most importantly, communicated very well throughout the process (texted or emailed promptly when they would start the project and when they could not make it one day due to extreme cold). They showed up exactly when they said they would when providing the initial quote as well which I have found to not be the case with other contractors. I would highly recommend."

"Ben re-pointed my basement stone walls. He arrived when he said he would, was extremely professional and hardworking, and ultimately did even more work than we had originally discussed -- all for the original quote. His work is careful and well done. He shared some helpful advice as well. I would highly recommend him."

Wall Repair 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.

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.  

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.

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.
