"I asked Spencer of Superior Home Pros, LLC to complete a list of tasks in my home that resulted from my recent move. He arrived on time, assembled a bookcase, installed a headboard on my new bed, repaired a gouge in the drywall caused by my puppy, and sanded and stained a cabinet corner. Everything was done to perfection. Spencer is professional, congenial, and very fairly priced. Call him!"

"We needed a textured ceiling made smooth again in our great room-kitchen-hallway area. The ceiling is vaulted, about 17 feet at the peak, no easy task. We asked them to move a light fixture, build/blend a new wall where there was partial stair railing, and smooth all wall imperfections throughout the area. There were 2 teams, one did drywall/ceiling and built the wall, after that the painter finished the entire area. Everyone was very friendly and worked hard to complete it all in a short amount of time. We are very satisfied with the work they did and highly recommend them!"

"I was looking for painters and I got that plus carpentry and masonry repairs! The crew did an excellent job painting the exterior of our home. They replaced rotten wood, scraped and sanded, and used high quality product. Our chimney needed some repair and a mason quoted $2k... JRS fixed it for $500. They also reinforced floor joists and posts in the basement. Throughout the job Jaime shared updates and asked questions to ensure we were happy with the work. I highly recommend them."

"Scott came into a difficult situation with my house and trying to repair the hole where the squirrels were coming in. But he and his partner were persistent in finding a solution. This entailed him running to the store a few different times and making sure that this huge area was sealed off. He went above and beyond for me and I appreciate it greatly. I have him coming back to do some more work for me. I highly recommend Scott Marks!"

"They are professional and thorough, but there is really no wiggle room if you would like something differently done. Choices in booklet are pretty basic, not a lot of options (for flooring types, door style, trim) This company is like the Anderson Windows of basements. (No doubt they spend a lot on advertising; There is a reason they are the top result when searching!) Expect to pay quite a bit more than you planned, but I knew if I chose them it would be done and warrantied for everything. Sometimes you just want to sign and not worry, and I would definitely pick Finished basements plus if you are in that situation and have the budget."

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.  

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.

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.

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.
