"I received a call from Bryan to come quote a new deck. We also wanted a brick paver walkway under the deck. Tony did the deck he was very particular making sure to continually measure and level. The deck and steps are all framed out, beautiful job. The walkway was next and that too looks great. Very nice as well as professional people. Would highly recommend JR Haddad , they did a great job and did not gouge us on the price. Very reasonable."

"We had Vic do a big landscaping job w/retaining wall and lights in front of our house. He did an AMAZING job! We were all impressed with him and his crew. They were professional, respectful, punctual, reasonably priced and Vic gave me great ideas on how to design the landscaping. It turned out so good! In fact, many of our neighbors have hired him to do their landscaping since they saw what he did with our front yard. The following summer, Vic Completed another wonderful landscaping job on the side of house, garden area. This side is directly facing the street and we had so many people stop and tell us that we had the most beautiful landscaping in the sub…TRUTH!! Next summer, i want Vic to work on the backyard area and put up retaining walls as well…i honestly can’t wait!! I highly recommend Vic!! ?"

"They did excellent work with all aspects: from digging deep to make a sturdy foundation and digging for retaining wall to finalizing a beautiful patio laid herringbone style with trim details to butt up against existing walkway. And they clean up well when done, which by the way took less than 2 days!"

"They did an excellent job building the stone retaining wall with boulders on one side and outcropping on the other. They coordinated the irrigation and planted beautiful plants. The end result came out to be better than I imagined"

"Mr.Puga and his crew were great to work with. They were very respectful of my property. No smoking or music. Just getting the job done. They were very attentive to small details that would have made a big difference, if they hadn't been so attentive. I enjoyed their happy demeanor and obvious comaraderie while they worked too. They showed up bright and early every day, worked the day, every day, till the project was complete. I now have a beautiful, custom brick paver patio."

Retaining Wall Installers 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
