"The estimate was reasonable, the installation was completed in a day and per schedule, and the crew did an excellent job of cleaning up after the install. I am quite happy with the job, with only a minor issue with a couple of pieces of pressure treated lumber that were warped or visibly chipped. All in all a great experience."

"The company was extremely professional and answered all of my questions since I'm a first time home buyer. My fence was rotten and needed replacement around the winter. The company was very helpful to assist...the down side was waiting for the weather to not be too cold to allow the fence to be installed (which took a few weeks). The price was reasonable and fence installation went very well."

"Jose and his crew came out on July 13, 2020 to build a 2.5'h x 15'l retaining wall with 3 steps built into the middle. Communication was excellent: from obtaining the quote and discussing the specs/needs to signing the contract and executing the work. They arrived early morning, at the specified time, and worked very quickly and efficiently. Mid-day they realized an additional step was needed, which the crew added with no problem or delay. They came back on the following morning to finish the project and install a new diverter for our gutter downspout to allow for better drainage. The quality of the work, great communication, flexibility to accommodate necessary changes to the scope of the project, and overall price point made it a pleasure to work with Brothers Pavers. We are beyond happy with the final result, and will think of them first the next time we have a similar project."

"Outdoor Advantage has done 2 jobs for us, one a small stone patio and the other a major front yard landscaping with digging out 2 large tree stumps, and then grading, planting, sod, and a small stone wall. They have just done a tremendous job in all respects, with timely service, great attention to detail, and coming back to fix some small things that made it perfect. Great job!! Will definitely use again, and recommend to all."

"While the work went well initially, the end of the job (when foreman was not present) did not go well and wall had to be fixed twice - because the first repair was sloppy and created additional damage. Work was completed a little over 3 years ago and wall is again cracking. If using this provider I recommend the homeowner be present for duration of job to ensure proper attention to detail and understand if there is an problem your correspondence may not promptly be addressed."

"David did an outstanding job installing our bathroom exhaust fan. We were able to schedule the installation within a few days of my initial call. His rate was the most reasonable of three companies I called through Home Advisor. Very professional and will call him again if we need more work done at our home. I recommend him highly!"

"Installed French drain to eliminate a major water/drainage problem on the side of our house. Graded the landscape then installed new sod. What a beautiful difference in the look of our house and landscape. The work crew was efficient and completed the project on schedule. Highly recommended for your landscape project!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.  

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.

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional installation ensures structural integrity and durability for larger walls.

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