We pride ourselves on quality work and great customer service. We believe in going out of our way for our customers! We work very hard to make sure that all of our customers are pleased with the work we do! We believe that every job, no matter the size, deserves our full attention and should be done right

"We recently had the pleasure of working with Travis for our paver patio installation, and we couldn't be happier with the results. After another contractor bailed on our project at the last minute, we were on a tight deadline to complete our landscaping. Travis stepped in and saved the day. Despite the short notice, Travis and his crew were able to squeeze us into their schedule and completed the project in just one day, as promised. The team was professional, efficient, and their workmanship was outstanding. The paver patio looks beautiful. We highly recommend Travis to anyone looking for quality and reliability in their yard improvement projects."

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.

If you've decided you'd like to skip the cost of restoring a brick exterior wall after considering whether you should repair or replace brick on your house, you can consider installing fiber cement siding over brick for a cost of $2 to $6 per square foot. When done properly, cement siding over brick offers a durable, low-maintenance option that can actually reduce your home's energy costs. It's also attractive. However, improper installation or installation over heavily compromised brick can cause water damage. 

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.

There are contractors specifically trained in the design and construction of retaining walls. Retaining wall contractors are skilled at dealing with the soil on your property and assessing what kind of drainage should be installed. They will recommend the best materials to use for the project and can handle the processing of permits by local authorities.

Poured concrete is likely the cheapest way to build a retaining wall, as this material costs anywhere from $6 to $8 per square foot. The next best budget-friendly option is to use landscaping timbers. These timbers are great for DIY projects, as they don’t require tools to successfully build a retaining wall. Landscape timber costs around $10 to $14 per square foot. Depending on your chosen garden style, you can also go with natural stones or concrete blocks. Natural stones can be expensive if you buy them, but they’re a lot less costly if you can source them from your property.
