"Our basement water issue was getting to a point that, with a shop vac, I could hardly keep up. Water was leaking from the wall to floor seams and up through cracks in the floor. I needed help and I needed it quick. After doing some research, we gave Advanced Seamless Gutters a call. One aspect of this company is a basement waterproofing section of the business, which is rated highly. Within a day, the owner, Konstantin (Koni) paid us a visit and evaluated our problem. He was very thorough in what needed to be done, he answered all my questions and concerns. After the professional proposal was offered, we hired his company on the spot. Two days later his crew of four came prepared to do this rather extensive work. Before work began, all items in the basement were moved to the center and covered with plastic. We were impressed with the level of progress and quality of work being done during the four day project. This is a friendly and dedicated group of knowledgeable, skilled hard workers, which was apparent on the very first day and throughout. It is refreshing to see a company that has employees with a high dedication and commitment to this type of specialized work. The result: Complete customer satisfaction. Thank you."

"Todd was excellent - a complete professional. Dependable, punctual, and totally delivered what he said he would. I had existing stone walls that needed repair. Another person had been sloppy while reinforcing some loose stones. Todd removed what he did, making the walls look spectacular - just like the original stone walls. He also fixed a stone walkway that was a mess. Many people do not want to bother getting into a mess created by someone else, but Todd accepted the challenge and did a great job. I would recommend him without hesitation."

"Marc went above and beyond when installing a yard drainage system in our side yard. He was quick to give us a competitive quote, easy to work with, and got a complicated job done fast. I would highly recommend him for homeowners looking to modify the slope and or drainage plan for their plot."

"I hired Forever Excavating to rough in my driveway and house site. Iâ m not from the area and didnâ t have a lot of time to go over the project on the house site. They were able to meet me short notice and got my general understanding of what I wanted done. Once the work began I wasnâ t able to get up and see the progress of the job. Dillon and Sean went above and beyond sending pictures and recommendations on other things I had not thought about. A simple rough in job turned into a large scale grading and site work to provide a beautiful start to my new home. The few things they recommended I did turned out to make the job 100 times better than I expected. I would highly recommend them for anyone looking for any excavating work."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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

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.  

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. 

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.
