"Roberto and his crew did an outstanding job! We usually do all of our hedge abs shrub trimming ourselves, but with a few other projects going on we hadn’t gotten them all season long and they were seriously overgrown. Since we COULD do it ourselves, we had a limit on what we were willing to pay, so we were getting several quotes … most of which were higher than we had hoped. Roberto worked with us on the pricing, which was good news because now it was off of our plate! His crew was there the early next day … fast, friendly, courteous, conscientious and neat! We are now looking to have Roberto and his crew back to take a few more projects off of our plate too! If you want a great job, at great price, by a great crew … we highly recommend Roberto’s Affordable Lands aping!"

The Narrow Lane Company is a full service landscape company dedicated to creating and maintaining beautiful outdoor spaces you'll absolutely love! All work is done in a timely, professional manner and 100% guaranteed.

"Worst experience working with a contractor we have ever had. Lack of communication was astounding. Reached out to start the project on our tiny front lawn in June/July. Didn't start planting until mid October. Was told there were 5 jobs in front of ours. Ignored photos of exactly what we wanted. Finish product is passable at best. Would not recommend."

"Ronaldo will provide feedback which is nice. When I insisted that they leave the block edging where the new beds were added he expressed a couple times that he thought it would look better without, I eventually saw it and was glad he suggested it. His crew also added a cute little circular rock area when they extended the bed and some of the rocks weren't needed."

Established in 1999, Awesome Landscape Design continues to be a family owned and operated business. Awesome Landscape Design prides itself on an outstanding record of quality service and attention to details.

" We recently hired Awesome Landscape and Design to add a new patio in our backyard and replace our front steps and walkway, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, Leo and his team were incredibly professional, reliable, and easy to work with. They showed up on time every day, communicated clearly throughout the project, and paid close attention to every detail. The workmanship is outstanding, the new patio looks beautiful and adds so much to our outdoor space, and the front steps and walkway have completely transformed the curb appeal of our home. Everything was completed on schedule and within budget. We’ve received so many compliments already. It’s refreshing to work with a company that takes such pride in their work and genuinely cares about customer satisfaction. We highly recommend Awesome Landscape and Design to anyone looking for quality landscaping or hardscaping work, we’ll definitely be using them again for future projects! "

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.

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.

Generally, a railroad tie retaining wall consisting of a single line of ties should be between 3 and 4 feet tall—and the height often tops out at around 6 feet. You can go taller, but you may need additional footings and reinforcements, including a second layer of railroad ties to support the added weight of the soil it’s holding back.

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.

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