"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!"

"Great costumer service from all. The gentleman removing old sidewalk, and forming new one, were great in making sure that the end product would be the best outcome. Explained everything. Project completed quick once it started. I'm happy with the new sidewalk."

"The crew was very professional and friendly and did a very good job. Some damage to our garage wall occurred and they immediately came out and repaired it. 
I would definitely use Nu-Crete again for concrete removal or installation.
A person who installs garage doors for a living happened to see our new garage floor and he said the floor was considerably better than most of the new floors he'd seen (presumably not installed by Nu-Crete) and he asked us for Nu-Crete's name so he could recommend them because he is often asked by homeowners for recommendations and until he'd seen this floor he didn't really have anyone to recommend."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like. 

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.  

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.

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.

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.
