"This was an A+ professional service. They painted all of my walls in my condo which included multiple sites of wall repair, plastering and painting of walls that had not been maintained for over 30 years. They were always on time and worked very hard the entire day as arranged. I can't say enough about their expert work, on time schedule and especially quality of work. I can't imagine getting anyone better. They were dependable and they proved to be very expert at their work. I would hire them again anytime."

"It went great!! He fixed my dishwasher that was not mounted to the counter or cabinets. And caused the water supply hose to kink. He built it up with plywood to make level and secured it to cabinets and counter. He hung a bamboo Roman shade above the kitchen sink. And fixed a ceiling fan light that was not working. He’s pleasant and very knowledgeable. Will use Harry again. A few neighbors recommended him. They all love him too!!"

"We highly recommend Henry Forrest. He did an outstanding job and we couldn't be happier with the final results. He repaired a brick retaining wall on our property -- several bricks were missing and damaged, grout needed to be repaired, and the entire wall needed to be cleaned. We had a very small window of time in which to complete the project, and he was able to accommodate our tight timelines. Also, our property is almost 80 years old so matching the brick was no easy task but he was able to match the brick so it isn't obvious which bricks were replaced. Henry's communication throughout the process was outstanding. He and his crew arrived on time and completed the job exactly as promised. We would use Henry Forrest again for any type of home project."

"I hired JW Home Improvement to remove wood filler and a microwave above my electric stove, and replace it with a pre-made cabinet and new range hood. Denis, the JW Technician who was sent to my home to conduct the work, was very professional, knowledgeable and detail oriented. Due to an unknown pre-existing issue that necessitated cutting into the dry wall in the bulk-head (above my stove), the job ended up taking approximately 3 hours longer than what was originally projected. That being said, Denis devised a successful solution to deal with the unexpected snag, repaired the drywall and expertly painted the entire wall. I am issuing a rating of five out of five stars for his performance."

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.  

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.

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 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.
