"Our landscape lighting wasn't working properly. Mush of Anything Lights came out and troubleshooted the system and pointed out many deficiencies. They replaced much of the original wire and several lights and upgraded a couple of the teansformers. Also cleaned up and tuned up the entire system. Now our system is back up and running and looks beautiful. "

Locke’s Landscaping provides outdoor living and enjoyment to discriminating tastes. We understand that a beautiful house can be a “canvas unfinished,” simply a beautiful house. A professionally landscaped house becomes a home, an invitation not only to friends and family, but to nature itself, in creating a tranquil outdoor retreat from the stresses of everyday life–right outside your door.

"Excellent: Locke's crew did a great job. The design was well laid-out, reasonably priced, delivered on time, and the crew cleaned-up after the job was completed."

"Did a fantastic job (this review is late in coming as the work was done a while ago). We originally wanted a privacy fence but changed our minds and went with a 4 rail ranch fence. They were fantastic in accommodating the change. Install went perfectly. They came on the agreed install day, put up the fence and it is gorgeous! The new fence is super durable. We recently had an entire half of a tree fall on it, and the fence doesn't even have a scratch. Definitely high quality professionals that I highly recommend!"

We have been in business since 1994. During this time, we have installed hundreds of brick paver and natural stone landscapes throughout Southeastern Michigan. We carry Commercial Liability, Commercial Vehicle and Worker's Compensation Insurance. Take a look at our website to see our portfolio. Austin Brick Pavers LLC is dedicated to our community. We only employ local workers because we believe in keeping jobs local and we also believe in paying a decent wage for an honest day's work. Our employees are courteous and knowledgeable and always appear in Austin Brick Pavers LLC uniforms on the job site. As an owner of the business, I work hand in hand with my employees on the job site, utilizing my 19 years of brick paving experience and also my knowledge of architecture. I hold a degree in Architecture from Lawrence Technological University. We are a Unilock Authorized Contractor. We take pride in community outreach like sponsoring our local T-ball teams and the Adopt-a-Highway program.

"If you want the best in the business, then hire Austin Brick Pavers for your next landscaping project.

Eric Austin and team are true to their word and can be counted on to deliver on their promises - on time and within budget! Pro tip: Ask Eric for Jamie and Ryan - these guys are the absolute best!"

"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, 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.

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.

Yes, you can use cinder blocks for many purposes, including retaining walls, foundations, garage walls, and fences. Building a cinder block retaining wall costs between $60 and $200 per linear foot, including materials and professional labor. For a 30-foot-long retaining wall, the cost ranges from $1,800 to $6,000.

They prevent soil erosion, add flat space, and enhance property aesthetics.
