"We hired this pro to repair our sidewalk as we got a violation letter from NYC DOT. They took complete responsibility on the case-from requesting a permit for the project, thorough a quick and efficient repair till contacting DOT to remove the violation. The repair was well organized, neat and accurate. My sidewalk looks really good now. Malik gave me further instructions and followed up with me next day to check if we are happy with the job. He assured they will make any fix promptly if there is a need. I highly recommend this pro to anyone who needs help with wide range of such projects. Thanks a million, Malik!"

"Kenny and his team are wonderful--meticulous, thoughtful, professional, and just kind, good people. We hired them to install a gravel pit and flagstones and are so happy with our new backyard. We will be calling them back to do some plantings next year. Kenny was very responsive, helped flesh out our vision, and when something wasnt to his standards he came back with ideas to revamp it and work within our budget. A great experience overall. I would not hesitate to recommend."

"Mr. Awais was wonderful. He worked with my husband but when he arrived, I was only available. He explained what they talked about and let me know what the steps would be. The weather made it difficult for me to see what it would look like when the cement dries but I am very happy with what I see now. I will definitely be using them again. "

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Poured concrete is likely the cheapest way to build a retaining wall, as this material costs anywhere from $6 to $8 per square foot. The next best budget-friendly option is to use landscaping timbers. These timbers are great for DIY projects, as they don’t require tools to successfully build a retaining wall. Landscape timber costs around $10 to $14 per square foot. Depending on your chosen garden style, you can also go with natural stones or concrete blocks. Natural stones can be expensive if you buy them, but they’re a lot less costly if you can source them from your property. 

Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.

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.

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