"Carlos and his team were a pleasure to work with. We needed new patios in our backyard mainly because we had standing water on one side and we would get water in our basement on the other side because the patio was not pitched away from the house. The first time Carlos came to our house, he quickly and confidently came up with a comprehensive plan installing new drainage to carry the water away from the house and installing new patios and retaining walls. The project definitely evolved over a few months and my wife and I decided to also redo a walkway, permanently remove another walkway and add accent lighting. Every step of the way, Carlos was happy to give us options and update his estimate accordingly. He was very fair on price. Carlos and his team were very professional and polite and worked exceptionally fast to address our drainage issues while also greatly improving the appearance of our backyard. Once we are ready to redo our front walk, we'll definitely call Carlos."

"I highly recommend Masonry by Thomas without any hesitation. Thomas answered my call immediately and arrived within 24 hours to give me an estimate. His excellent communication and responsiveness made for a quick and seamless agreement. He and his team completed the repair of our 110-year-old stone retaining wall with expert craftsmanship and attention to detail. The final result is stunning and honors the history of the home. I would trust him with any and all masonry work. Call Thomas first."

"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."

"ALB did a wonderful job on a retaining wall surrounding our above ground pool. It looks beautiful. We have already received many comments from our neighbors. They also repaired our cracked foundation with stucco and repaired our front paver walkway/steps which were in very bad shape. Teki and Eric are professional, knowledgeable and courteous above and beyond the norm. His employees followed Tekis instructions to the T and also did a great job in cleaning up the worksite. My husband knows quite a bit about construction and he saw the way they took the time to protect the pavers from erosion. We are both very impressed with all their work and we would not hesitate to hire them again. Thank you so much to Teki, Eric and the guys!"

"Tito & Son Construction did an outstanding job painting my apartment. I was hesitant at first but after making contact with them I have nothing but great things to say about them. They took their time to prepare the apartment first before painting. They made sure my carpet didn t get any paint stains by covering the floors, etc. I had so many questions regarding the paint quality and type to use on my apartment walls. They were there in every step of the way to make my decisions a lot easier. I highly recommend them, five stars all across the board. Highly professional and best customer service. Thank you Tito & Son Construction!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Options include concrete, stone, brick, and wood, tailored for specific design needs.

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.

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.

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.

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.
