"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 hired Bob to repair a door frame that was split, and he was fantastic. Bob was a clear communicator, came to the job prepared, and very friendly. He arrived on time, the quality of his work was excellent and fairly priced, and he finished the work faster than initially projected. Bob also went out of his way to do some additional touch-up paint work in the unit, and gave my girlfriend a small screwdriver for another repair in her apartment. I have no complaints, and will definitely use Pino Construction for any of my future repairs! I strongly suggest that you check with him for any of your future repair work too."

"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."

Small jobs welcome

"If you need plaster work done, I highly recommend Best Pro Builders Inc. I have been renovating a 100-year-old house in Cambridge, and needed some ceilings and walls repaired prior to painting. Erick came to my property twice to help me understand which walls and ceilings could be covered with skim coat plaster, and which needed to be demolished, as the plaster was coming loose from the lath. The crew who did the work were extraordinarily competent and hard working. As the job proceeded, I became worried about the huge mess the ceiling demolition made, but when the crew finished the job, they vacuumed and washed the floors, leaving the place cleaner than it was when they got there. I had received two other quotes for this job, and in additional to excellent work they did, Best Pro Builders Inc. was also the lowest priced bid."

"MasonWorks did great work evaluating the scope of repair work for my one story exterior brick and bluestone steps, and were very attentive to detailing and quality during the reconstruction. I would work with MasonWorks again, and would recommend them to others."

Our ceilings that we had done look great, I would definitely recommend AOS Drywall and use them for future projects."

"This company repainted two warehouse units I own and did a great job. I have done some internal house painting myself so I can appreciate the fine job- good straight lines between paint of different colors on wall and ceiling, even quality paint coverage, just generally first rate. Would recommend."

"Yovanni and his team at Y & C Landscaping and Construction did an amazing job transforming our backyard! They flattened the hill, cleared all the trees and bushes, built a beautiful retaining wall, added fresh loam, and installed a brand new lawn. The backyard looks absolutely beautiful, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. They were professional, hardworking, and paid attention to every detail. I highly recommend Y & C Landscaping and Construction!"

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Options include concrete, stone, brick, and wood, tailored for specific design needs.

Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.
