"I was impressed that Jason went out to the building site on Sunday, and then checked the size of the boulders. Not many contractors give up part of a Sunday to determine whether the size of the boulders is appropriate. Early Monday morning he called that he connected with another boulder/stone company who could deliver on Thursday. He and his crew did a beautiful job putting the retaining wall up. I was disappointed that the landscaping around the wall and driveway were not levelled out better before they left. "

Adding a layer of topsoil will provide additional nutrients to the sandy soil, helping the grass grow and remain healthy through many seasons.
