Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"I couldnâ t be more pleased with the exceptional work provided by Rickanâ s Landscaping. I used a local internet search to contact numerous companies for new landscaping installation. It was a daunting task to find someone that fits my expectations. Thankfully, Jeff Rickan contacted me quickly, accommodated my schedule and personally assessed the job site. He is so personable while sharing his expertise and passion for transforming landscapes. He listened closely to my vision and truly wanted to make me, a potential customer, happy. He returned to my home providing a timely estimate and comprehensive plan that worked within my budget. He thoroughly explained everything and made sure to disclose the time frame for the projectâ s commencement. I had no reservations about selecting Rickanâ s Landscaping for such a large important project. Once the project began, the team of workers arrived on time and put forth extreme effort and care. He communicated throughout the entire process and invited me to be incorporated with plant placement and selection before planting them in the soil. The true mark of a great company is experience, quality work and taking care of their customers. In this case, Rickanâ s Landscaping went above and beyond and will absolutely receive my future business - and most likely, that of my neighbors and friends!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

They prevent soil erosion, add flat space, and enhance property aesthetics.

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.
