"I recommend them! Lobo are professional and quick. They offered a no hassle quote, they came and did the work after offering a quote. They take cash or check for payment. All in, from posting on angi to completion of the project, was less than a week! They removed one tree that had died, removed everything that was there. They also trimmed up one tree and removed another bush. We were able to get prices for all three items individually if we wanted to do any one by itself, but decided to do them all together. I would hire again for any service they offer!"

"I hired them to replace the subfloor in my bathroom, which they did. However in the process they destroyed my bathroom wall. Which was not part of the job. Instead of replacing what was damaged like the homeowner was told would happen. The crew left and my call was never returned. UPDATE I only heard back after a I placed my original 1 star review which I placed after a week of holding off. However once they reached out they did fix the problem in a timely manner. It seemed like the issue was with the crew that came out originally and Mr Catanach seemed upset with how things turned out."

"They were fantastic! Luis and his crew were able to book my job quickly, and repaired a large hole in an interior wall superbly--putting in insulation and matching the texture perfectly, blending it into the surrounding wall that so once it drys and I paint, don't think you will be able to tell there was a patch--very grateful and will definitely use again for other projects!"

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.  

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.

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.

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional installation ensures structural integrity and durability for larger walls.
