"Diego went above and beyond to help transform our backyard into a larger, more beautiful space for our family. From start to finish, he was professional, hardworking, and paid close attention to detail. His knowledge and dedication really showed in the final result. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. If you're looking for someone who takes pride in their work and truly cares about customer satisfaction, I highly recommend Diego!"

"Sean Condron and his team are total pros. They did a major home renovation for me. They were just remarkable and I trust them implicitly. I plan to have them build a mountain home for me on my land. Sean gave me really good advice that saved me money. He cared about me as the client and did not try to “upsell” me. My main home is in Winston-Salem and I would love to have Sean and his team to help me with my home here! I recommend them unconditionally."

Customers say: True professional

"Great! We love & use our new backyard all the time. Even our neighbors love what we’ve had done. We had 828 remove existing & damaged fencing, level the yard, build a retaining wall with steps & lighting with timers, pour a large concrete pad & a walkway to a fire pit pad, correct drainage with drains & a river rock bed, fix existing safety lighting, plant 7’ trees +. They’re also easy to work with & communicate regularly & honestly. Thx Max & crew!"

"He did a bunch of concrete work at my house for me and some plumbing work. I could not be happier with it, he was respectful, on time getting there, and on time getting the job done. He was clean, it may have been cleaner when he left then before he started the job."

Retaining Wall Installers 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.

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.

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.

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.  

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.
