"Dealing with Legacy Stoneworks inc and Rodrigo was surely a pleasure. He came out to inspect the area that needed to be fixed. Quoted that day. We agreed on the price and with in a weeks time had his crew come out and to do the work. The workmanship was incredible. They did awesome work, they cleaned up after they were done and the project that they said they would do just looked great. I can highly recommend Legacy for any of your stone work needs. The project consisted of replacing pavers stones that have sunken over the years. They also fixed a decorative front retaining wall that was leaning. I think sometimes repairing stone work or a stone wall can be a harder project than starting completely new. Well their work was awesome. Everything matched, everything came out great. Keep up the great work Legacy Stoneworks you’ve earned my trust."

"Silvio and his crew are the absolute best. Hire them - you will be glad you did! Silvio came out the day that I called him, and I had a very fair quote from him that evening. He was very involved in the project, and I could always reach him when I needed to talk to him. They turned my small, neglected back and side yard into a place that brings me so much joy! They put up a new retaining wall, graded the back yard and put down sod, and installed a magnificent side patio. What a difference!! They also removed some old shrubs and landscaped with mulch and crushed stone. They even made a very cool rock garden out of the large boulders that they dug up from my back yard! Silvio's crew was talented and so hard-working. The guys worked very long days, and they cleaned up each night before they left. SRS Construction and Landscape is the best! I will definitely be using them again!"

Customers say: Quality work

"We hired Jose and his team to pour a concrete slab for a hot tub, install a ~400 square foot patio, and install a walkway along the side of our house, as he had come highly recommended from folks in our neighborhood. Jose was very communicative during the planning to make sure we landed on the best design, he stated a timeline for the project completion and stuck to the timeline, and the patio and walkway look fantastic. It's made our backyard much more enjoyable and looks great. We also found the prices very reasonable as well, with the walkway, path, and concrete pad costing less than some contractors were quoting for the patio alone."

"Phillip and his team were excellent. They replaced my retaining wall right on schedule and made the entire process feel easy. The crew showed up early every day, worked efficiently, and left the job site clean and orderly. Everyone was professional, courteous, and great to work with. The finished wall looks fantastic, and I couldn’t be happier with the quality of the work. I’d gladly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, skilled craftsmanship."

"This is a fantastic company. Cleber is friendly and knowledgeable. His team did a phenomenal job. We called them because another guy completely messed up our patio project. Cleber came in, pulled out the hot mess and got to work crafting a gorgeous patio for us. We will hire him again when we do our driveway wall."

"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."

"I am extremely happy with the work that was done. Eddie was terrific. My walls and steps were in a sad state and unsafe. He Took care of everything and was extremely respectful of my budget. His work is outstanding, my stone walls look better than they ever have and the steps are so much nicer than they were before. He definitely went above and beyond my expectations. He's honest, He came right when he said he would and price was exactly what he said it would be and absolutely no mess. I couldn't be happier and I recommend him 100%!"

"I recently had front steps and a landing installed at my door entrance, and I'm thrilled with the results. The combination of veneer and granite not only adds an elegant touch but also ensures durability. The installation was seamless, enhancing both the aesthetic and functionality of my home entrance. Highly satisfied with the craftsmanship and overall quality."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like. 

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.  

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.

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.
