"Victor and his very competent and industrious crew at ProBuilders did a first rate job in repairing the defects - from our homes builder - to our concrete driveway and the stucco on the front of our home. The work being done to the driveway and stucco was explained to us in detail and was finished in the time frame Victor laid out for us. The price was reasonable too. We still have major and minor projects that we want done both externally and internally to our home and we will look no further than Victor's ProBuilders to get the job done."

"Walter and his crew did an excellent job completely relandscaping my yard from the ground up. They ground a stump, did the grading, installed retaining walls and underground drainage, installed sod, planted all kinds plants, and laid boulders, gravel and pavers. They also built two giant brick walls that collectively stretched about half an acre. They were professional, respectful, responsive, kind and they showed up when they said they would. A couple times mistakes were made because of me and they corrected it and didn’t charge me. Overall, we received a great value for the price we paid and we highly recommend their services."

"Highly recommend these guys! Went beyond customer service expectation and communicated through the entire process. I first got our walk path done by them, stamped concrete and also flagstone. I then had them do a retaining wall that almost wrapped around our entire property including added stairs for the dogs, and in the back yard a added grilling area. The retaining wall process required much work because they had to dig and level. To me the price was very fair , major house projects that are done correctly are not cheap , but the outcome is all worth it because it looks amazing and is done right. These guys know what they are doing, are honest , and their work ethic is absolutely amazing."

"Eric responded quickly to my request. The service was scheduled in the same week. Crew was on time. Eric even called to let me know he was a little delayed, which was most appreciated and showed respect for me as a customer. The crew was professional and did an excellent job in removing the trees. The stray Elm trees were also removed at my request. Everything was cleaned up and left very neat. I would definitely hire again and since I have a landscaping project in mind, I will definitely have them perform this work as well."

"Not well. He said he would bring 1 or 2 people to do the jobs, but he came himself only, and did about an hour's worth of work, ie the easy tasks: sealed the shower w/a silicone seal which peeled off within 2 or 3 days of use, changed washer on kitchen sink, replaced light bulb, and sealed w/silicone around 2 bathroom sinks.He charged $75 at a $65/hr rate and left for a bigger job, per his admission . He is rated 5 stars but is obviously overrated. From my notes, he scheduled for 8 to 8:30 am but arrived at 9:44am, at which time he took a phone call."

"I'm an architect that appreciates craftsmanship and professionalism from the contractors I hire to work on my home. I was more than satisfied with Country Decks performance on both counts. Mr. York was great to work with; he was punctual and provided a quality deck installation at a competitive price. I highly recommend Mr. York and his Country Decks team.

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.

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.

Installation typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the wall’s size and site conditions.

With foundation walls, the slab on grade and force at the top of the wall is resisted by flooring. With retaining walls, the force at the top of the wall is not resisted.

Yes, to build a retaining wall, a permit is required. Similarly, any repairs or modifications to an existing retaining wall require permits. If the planned wall measures higher than 4 feet, most municipalities require designs and permits come through a licensed engineer. In some locations, if the wall is shorter than 4 feet, a permit may not be required. For the requirements in your area, contact your local government.
