"I had a photo of a brick pattern I saw in NC and shopped it around to several companies. Thiago was prompt in responding to my inquiry and providing an estimate. After a clarifications, we signed a contract and work began within a few months. The crew was super courteous and easy to work with. Any issues or concerns I had during the installation were immediately addressed without any hesitation or pushback. I am very pleased with the finished product."

"Marvin, Romeo and their crew of 3 fellow laborers were the best! Great communication and coordination! They showed up at 8AM to place metal edging around our 75 foot semi-circular stone driveway and along our brick entry path. They dug out the existing plastic/rubber trim, inserted 11 boxes of 6”x 40” metal edging…10 strips per box by 3 PM. They cleaned up their work area, raked the stones to make our driveway level and hosed down the driveway They put all the old edging in industrial size plastic bags for town garbage collection. They are respectful, Industrious and pleasant to deal with and they are reasonable! I’ll have them back for other projects!"

"We have used D&S Landscaping for a number of years since moving to Metuchen. We couldn't be happier with the level of service and responsiveness from Don and his team. They have such great ideas and are always willing to work within your budget by offering different options. We recently had Don and his team install a paver patio in our backyard. Don provided a plan on how we should lay it out and showed us different paver combinations. We are thrilled with the finished product. I HIGHLY recommend D&S Landscaping for any Landscaping or Patio needs.......They even plow snow!"

"They did a complete porch teardown and build. They did such a fantastic job. Family owned business, walked us through the process, listened to our concerns, and was very talented and knowledgeable. Price was very very reasonable compared to all other quotes. We would 100% recommend!! I actually already told my Dad to call for his retaining wall and patio. We are already discussing hiring them for other projects!"

"CPD installed a paver walk way and concrete porch. They showed up with a large crew and finished the job in 1 day. As the job progressed they did not like the way some of it looked. They spent extra time and used extra materials to satisfy their standards and to make me more than satisfied. There was no extra charge for this."

"I recently had a new roof installed by Pro Build USA, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial inspection to the final cleanup, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. They walked me through the entire process, answered all my questions, and provided a fair estimate with no hidden fees. The crew arrived on time, worked diligently, and completed the job faster than expected without compromising quality. The new roof looks fantastic, and I can already tell it’s made a huge difference in my home’s appearance and energy efficiency. Highly recommend Pro Build USA to anyone needing roof installation or repair. It’s rare to find a company that takes pride in their work like this."

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.

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.  

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.

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. 

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its material, installation quality, maintenance, and local climate, with an average range of 20 to 100 years. Retaining walls made from durable materials like concrete, stone, and brick generally last a minimum of 50 years. Concrete walls typically last between 50 and 100 years, while brick can last for over a century in ideal conditions. Timber retaining walls can last from 20 to 40 years, depending on the wood quality, and pressure-treated wood walls average around 30 years. It is important to note that a retaining wall can fail prematurely if it was poorly constructed, for example, with inefficient footings or without necessary rebar reinforcements.
