"Tre is an awesome job!! The job required more parts and trips to Lowe's than initially expected due to the age and placement of the old toilet and plumbing parts. Tre is a great communicator and is very clear and transparent about the work he's doing and what the best options are for getting the job done without spending an arm and a leg. I plan to reach out to him again for scheduling other work on my house!"

"Delvin Barker came to our home in Raleigh, bringing along Jovanta Agu to undertake our LONG list of oddball items that really needed to be done. They were WONDERFUL. We had contracted Barkers Brickpavers for a variety of jobs which included replacing damaged bead board, installing a tile backsplash and painting damaged ceilings in the bathroom, kitchen and mudroom. They also patched sheet rock in a bedroom, installed a backsplash behind the stove, and installed paneling in the mud room. Despite an already long list of things to do, they did not falter when they discovered an unexpected pipe leak during the paneling installation. Delvin quickly assessed the problem, advised us of the necessary fix needed and added that to their list. They were hardworking, efficient and VERY GOOD at each task they undertook, as well as being very reasonably priced. More than that, they were a pleasure to have in my home, cleaning up after each chore and leaving my home better after their work than it was before We would absolutely recommend Barkers Brickpavers for your needs. As a matter of fact, we have already requested their services for a few other items we need done. Gene and Nancy B."

"Joe Morgan came to the house and viewed the area. He then proposed a solution to the hillside problem making sure that I was in agreement with his ideas. He searched for resources  that would provide the materials while staying within my budget. On the agreed upon day, Joe and Kevin arrived right on time and completed the project in a very reasonable amount of time. They were both hard-working and very professional. The hillside looks wonderful. I will certainly call on Workhorse Landscaping for future projects.

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.

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.

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like. 

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

Most retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.
