Customers say: Quality work

"Awesome! I can’t say enough about this company. Doug and his entire crew were prompt, friendly and professional. They were on the job bright and early every day. They made quick work of a huge job! Doug walked us through everything and answered all our questions without any hassles. The job came out beautiful, more than I imagined :) His prices were very reasonable considering what al the did. They completely tore out existing concrete block walls and sidewalks which saved us so much time and wear and tear on our bodies too! Doug is passionate out what he does. I think he was as excited to see our project develop as we were. He takes pride in what he does. So glad we hired a local guy and a craftsman too! Highly recommend him for sure!!!"

"A+'s in all categories! This was a small job at a busy time, contracted right after the first Covid-19 lockdown was lifted. Chris came on the day I called, sent estimate in under 24 hours, and scheduled work ASAP, keeping me informed all along and responding to all emails and calls immediately, despite his backlog of larger projects. His team were all very courteous, worked hard, quickly, and carefully in high heat, and did a beautiful job renovating a highly deteriorated walk with high quality pavers and edging. It is beautiful. DO get an estimate, as mine was QUITE reasonable and by far the lowest of the three I got."

"We told him that we weren't ready to complete the deck  project at the time and that may be why he took so long to respond with a completed "plan". The plan was certainly less professional and accurate than what my husband and I could have done ourselves.  He included an estimate for our deck (about $8,500 for a two level deck - one just 7" above the other to accommodate the difference in height of the floors in our home.  The proposed deck would be about 10x15.) He offered to quote us separately for his landscaping suggestions.
I had hoped that he would give us a ball park estimate at least for different deck material as he knew we were on the fence about which type we would go with, but he didn't.
The service wasn't AWFUL, it was just mediocre. He might be a great guy for pavers, but I would recommend him for deck or landscaping work.

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.
