"Justin at MiScape is an absolute pleasure to deal with. He made everything so professional by writing me up a work order and giving me a professional detailed assessment of the work that needed to be done unlike other companies that came to my house that made me feel like I wasn't a priority to them or my money wasn't important to them. Miscape wasn't the cheapest nor were they the most expensive but after getting a few estimates Justin absolutely had the most integrity and enthusiasm to do the job not only was he going to actually pull the weeds instead of torching it or whipping it as the others told me he would go above and beyond to make my yard look better than it ever has. Miscape exceeded my expectations on every level from professional curiosity to exceptional work. I would not only hire them again but race to every person I can about this man his company and his work ethic.

"I have done business with Tim Mack for years and never had a problem. Unfortunately, that changed when I recently asked for some landscaping and pavers for a walkway. We were charged full price for flowers that were half dead. His response was water them and it will be okay. In addition, one of his workers laid down a product called slag against pavers for a walkway. However, the slag seeped through the chain link fence into my neighbor's yard because there was nothing to keep it secured. I don't mind paying full price, but I do mind if I buy something I don't expect to have to bring it back to life. It should have been a fully mature healthy plant when I received it. The slag is just that - sloppy and uneven. I could have done that myself. I called Mr. Mack to let him know the neighbors would like for it to be cleaned up. However, he never followed up with them. I no longer recommend this company and will not use them again either. "

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Proper design and construction prevent erosion and add structural stability to landscapes.

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.

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. 

With foundation walls, the slab on grade and force at the top of the wall is resisted by flooring. With retaining walls, the force at the top of the wall is not resisted.
