"Installation went very well. The tech was knowledgeable and professional. Problem was when I received my cc bill. I was billed the $129 Angie's List fee which was to include TV wall mount (mount not include), connect all necessary video and basic audio, neatly dress wires, configure peripheral devices, and conceal in-wall wires. And I was billed $140.49 from HELLOTECH. I'm still trying to get the $140.49 charge reversed."

"Juan was 100% professional beginning with our initial phone call. After getting the run around from other providers Juan made time out of his busy schedule to meet up that same day for a complimentary consultation. I had talked to a couple other businesses leading up to this and none were going to be able to provide the service I was wanting. I needed a new television wall mounted with all in wall concealed cables as well as existing wall outlets concealed/removed, and a new outlet installed directly behind the television for a modern clutter free clean look. The job was going to require a significant amount of electrical work, cutting into dry wall, patching drywall, and then repainting entire wall in matching paint color. we agreed upon a price which was less than I had been quoted from others and for work that would have left me needing to hire separate contractors for drywall and painting. Communication was great and he was timely and ready to work each day we met. At the end of each day he spent time cleaning leaving my home in the same condition it was in when he arrived. I felt confident throughout the entire process which ended up turning out even better than I had imagined. While he was working he was even willing to diagnose and look at some other projects that I have in mind in the future. You cant go wrong hiring campos landscaping. He’s one of those people that takes pride in his work and will go above and beyond to make sure your happy with the end result. If I could give more than five stars I gladly would and I look forward to working with him again in the future."

"We needed someone to install tile around the bathtub at an apartment unit we own. Joey at 2 Daughters Handyman came to the rescue. He quoted us a fair price based on what we could see. However, once he started the work other complications were discovered such as mold behind the existing wall. Joey and his crew were able to take care of each issue and charged us a fair amount for the extra work performed. We were very impressed with his willingness to get the job done in a timely manner. He even went to two or three places on his own to find the tile we wanted. We will definitely use 2 Daughters again and would recommend them to anyone needing his services.

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Generally, a railroad tie retaining wall consisting of a single line of ties should be between 3 and 4 feet tall—and the height often tops out at around 6 feet. You can go taller, but you may need additional footings and reinforcements, including a second layer of railroad ties to support the added weight of the soil it’s holding back.

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.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.
