"Very well! The project exceeded our expectations. Tim was onsite almost every day to communicate the progress and stayed available for questions when they arose. We threw a curveball at him towards the end of the project (added some stair lights ) and it was handled perfectly! We already have a couple of additional phases that they will do when the time comes."

"We are very pleased with the work Carlos and his team performed for us. They completely transformed our backyard and front yard. They renovated our backyard patio with new steps and sitting wall; front yard with new walkway and steps. They did an amazing in-built lighting within the steps and sitting wall, which gives a very luxurious look to my patio and front yard. They gave a new look to my vegetable garden too and also did entire landscaping work with planting trees and plants. They are very reasonable on price and very authentic. They took care of some additional work too as per our request, without charging anything extra. We are very happy with the work they did and within a very reasonable price. I certainly recommend them for all the work which they did for us."

"The response to our original phone call was very quick and an explanation of the work to be done was very thorough on the first visit.  We felt very comfortable with the experience and although we had other quotes that were a little less  we felt based on the Angie’s List rating we would go with Hendrickson Excavating.   The work was scheduled very quickly and when the work was complete you would not have known a basement crack had been repaired.  Mark cleaned up the whole area making it look as if he had not been there.  When the bill arrived we were given a further discount as the extent of the work required was a little less than quoted, which we felt was excellent, because being inexperienced as we are we,  would not have known it took less to complete the job, very professional.   We fully support Hendrickson’s high rating on Angie’s List."

"Gilder and his friendly crew was very professional. The sod was installed in a timely manner. The grass has grown nicely over the last two years. I would hire Gilder and crew again for future landscaping projects. I would highly recommend Gilder and his company to anyone looking for reliable landscapers. Thanks, Gilder!"

"Sam and his team did a beautiful job repairing the stairs in front of the house, building a low wall for landscaping the front yard, and repairing the same kind of wall in the back. My neighbors saw what they did and hired them for their project, too! We love our new brick work and would recommend them to anyone! They were also so fast, professional, and really nice."

"Highly recommend Morano Electric. Jesse walked through everything with us upfront, clearly explained the scope of work, and guided us through the permitting process with the town, which made the entire project feel organized and stress-free from the start. Mike, Rico, and Daniel handled the installation and did excellent work—their attention to detail really stood out. The team was also very flexible with scheduling while we were juggling other parts of a renovation, and everything passed inspection with the town without any issues. We’ve worked with several electricians over the years, and Morano is by far the best. They’ll be our go-to from now on."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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. 

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.
