Welcome to FUNSCAPES! We are Charlotte's full service provider of total hardscape solutions. We offer turn-key services including: Driveways/ Concrete, Pavers, Retaining & Privacy Walls, Drainage Solutions, Seawalls, Masonry, Irrigation Systems and More! Prior to starting Funscapes, the owner founded and ran a large general contracting company for over 16 years, which specialized in providing all types of construction for the United States Military. Funscapes was founded on the same principle to provide local hardscape services at fair prices which meet the same quality standards demanded by the US Military.

"I really enjoyed working on creating my concert pathway and my patio re-sealing projects with the staff at Funscapes and would definitely recommend them to anyone interested in doing a project. My project was completed timely and it came out perfectly beautiful. I have received so many compliments from my neighbors who really love the pathway and how it turned out. I thought my stamped patio needed to be stained however we talked about resealing which is what they did and it looks brand new. This is a great company and everyone is very honest. They really do have the customers best interest at heart. Thank you Haley and Miguel!"

"I hired Richard last year to complete a landscape design for our front yard (plant flowers and evergreens). The work was completed over several days and by late summer early fall several plants had died. All plants were guaranteed for one year per our contract, I reached out to Richard several times late last fall and we agreed to wait until spring to replace the dead plants. We provided him with alternate plants since he claims he was not able to get some of the ones we had chosen and to date I haven't heard from Richard. I feel my only recourse is to let people know he failed to live up to the contract and maybe small claims court. I would not recommend Floradays Landscapes for your landscaping projects. "

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

Yes, to build a retaining wall, a permit is required. Similarly, any repairs or modifications to an existing retaining wall require permits. If the planned wall measures higher than 4 feet, most municipalities require designs and permits come through a licensed engineer. In some locations, if the wall is shorter than 4 feet, a permit may not be required. For the requirements in your area, contact your local government.

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.

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.

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.
