I specialize in general cleanup from home cleaning to yard work such as lawn mowing to weeding and some minor to intermediate landscaping projects. A benefit to choosing me is that I am an independent willing to tackle projects solo or with you so we can dial in on the specifics of your project, all while keeping you in control and on top of your budget! That’s just for starters, ask me anything and I’ll be glad to tell you if I’m up for it or not. (Prices/Rates may vary and are open for negotiation).

I have been growing trees and shrubs for over 10 years in southeast nebraska after graduating with a horticulture degree. I have planted thousands of deciduous and evergreen potted, balled and burlapped and tree spaded trees and was actually raised on a tree farm. Whether you need a windbreak, privacy screen, shade, ornamental value or more curb appeal. Feel confident I'm your one to do the job correctly the first time, and also, saving money at the same time by buying directly from the grower.

"Great. Our trees and yard have never looked better. He truly has the magic touch."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.

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.

Vinyl retaining walls are often the least expensive type of retaining wall, at $10 to $15 per square foot. This budget-friendly material is lightweight and durable, but it doesn’t have many decorative options. Untreated timber and railroad ties are the next step up, and start at $15 to $25 per square foot, respectively. High-end steel or natural stone tend to be the least wallet-friendly, but they’re extremely durable and come with a high-end look.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its particular material, whether it was properly installed, how well it’s maintained, and your local climate. Concrete, stone, and brick retaining walls last the longest, with concrete lasting between 50 and 100 years on average. Brick tends to last the longest, with a minimum of one century, under the right conditions. 

Timber retaining walls can start to deteriorate at 20 years, depending on the wood quality, but in the best case, they can last 40 years. Pressure-treated wood retaining walls last 30 years on average.
