"Our experience with Paragon was generally positive and we'd recommend this contractor without reservation. The business arrangements were clear and Paragon operated with integrity and flexibility. Our crew was competent, respectful of our home, friendly, and took pride in doing careful and quality work. Paragon quickly responded to customer feedback and strived for customer satisfaction throughout the project. The sources recommended by Paragon for wall tile, wood flooring, counter granite, cabinet hardware, and plumbling fixtures all provided superior service and extended contractor pricing. Our remodeled kitchen and powder room are key features of our traditional 1926 house and significantly enhance the home appearance and property value."

"Amazing! Sabino was responsive, quick and is very knowledgeable. He detected and replaced a bad outlet and took the time to check other outlets on the same circuit. He also installed 2 new exterior light fixtures and replaced 4 light switches in the garage with wifi switches. Sabino took the time to check other outlets in other rooms to ensure they are correctly installed. Additional work has now been requested. Not only is he a great electrician, he's a good person. Well worth your time to inquire for your work."

"They came and tore up the old driveway and installed a dry-well for water build up when it rains. Lined the driveway with Belgian blocks and installed new apron with and walkway with pavers. New stone fascia and treads were installed on stoop and in porch. Everything was smoothly and timely done. Quality asphalt used and highly recommended."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Proper design and construction prevent erosion and add structural stability to landscapes.

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.

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.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its material, installation quality, maintenance, and local climate, with an average range of 20 to 100 years. Retaining walls made from durable materials like concrete, stone, and brick generally last a minimum of 50 years. Concrete walls typically last between 50 and 100 years, while brick can last for over a century in ideal conditions. Timber retaining walls can last from 20 to 40 years, depending on the wood quality, and pressure-treated wood walls average around 30 years. It is important to note that a retaining wall can fail prematurely if it was poorly constructed, for example, with inefficient footings or without necessary rebar reinforcements.

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.
