"Miller Concrete and Excavation did an outstanding job on our pole barn slab! They showed up right on time, worked with professionalism, and kept the job site clean each day. The quality was well worth the investment, and I’ll definitely be calling them again for future projects."

"Ryan did a great job with communication throughout the project. He worked with us when we decided to add our front walkway and an overlay and new front step on our front porch. The results were amazing! They did a fantastic job!"

"Estimate matched another contractor. 
He was thorough, comfortable to work with and answered all of our questions.
Day 1 they removed old walk and set up forms.
Day 2 they prepped the stone and mesh. Poured and finished. 
Day 3 they removed forms.
Design matched up well with the existing public walk and driveway.
The crew was careful to mask off a recent set of steps to assure no concrete would splatter.
As with any concrete work, the nearby lawn is disrupted and the homeowner is left with re-landscaping.

"I highly recommend this company! They removed four pine trees from our yard with care and efficiency. The Luke and Kenai were punctual, knowledgeable, and took great care of our property throughout the process. After removing the trees, they leveled the area, spread grass seed, and covered it with straw so the yard would recover nicely. The cleanup was excellent, and they left everything looking better than expected. We couldn't be happier with their work."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Most retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.

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.

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.
