"I called Kevin on 8/12/13 and he came out that afternoon and gave us an estimate.  Called him on 8/13/13 to tell him we would like the work done.  He said he could do it the next day 8/14/13 and he returned on 8/16/13 to seed and put the straw down.  I would recommend him for you tree and stump removal.. We were very satisfied....  Thanks Kevin...

"They messed up the ceiling part in a corner.  They got the wall paint mixed in with the ceiling paint.  They did try to fix it.  We do have cathedral ceilings.  It took them a long time to paint.  I was a little frustrated or upset by the fact that the painter didn't have an extension ladder and ended up standing on my wood stove to reach.  It made me so nervous.  I really didn't want them to come back to fix the ceiling.  They did smudge it pretty bad, but I just choose to not look at it. It wasn't exactly what I would have expected from a professional painter, but they did an okay job. They were very responsive.  The owner called me the next day to see how it went.  They were very punctual and professional.  I guess it would be somewhat shady with the lack of ladders they had.  I would probably use them again.  Because of the difficult job, I think overall they probably are decent painters, it was just above their expectations.  They were prompt and worked right thru until they were done."

"Wanted a small patio/hangout area in the back yard for summer grilling and entertaining. Saying I was satisfied would be an understatement, Coombs Landscaping by far exceeded all expectations…our backyard BBQ’s are a neighborhood favorite. Coombs Landscaping was timely, professional, and even worked a few days in the pouring rain to make sure our patio was ready for a summer gathering we had planned. Extremely impressed with the outcome- the wife and I are already budgeting to have them come back to do a small walkway for us in the fall. Can’t say enough great thing about Nate and his crew! Highly recommend!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, including patterns, finishes, and plant integration for aesthetic enhancement.

Depending on who you hire to build a retaining wall, the average cost, including demolition and reconstruction, for a 50-foot wall that's 4 feet in height is between $7,000 and $24,000.

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.

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.
