"It was a pleasure to work with Sergiy on my 3 bathrooms remodeling project. He was up-front about the costs, delivered high quality workmanship, and was easy to communicate with. He and Nick worked meticulously. It turned out my walls were not level. Sergiy took care to even them out with layers of spackle and sanding, so that the corner tiles lined up in a beautiful straight line. I really appreciated this extra effort to make it look right. Sergiy gave me regular updates during the project, and the work was completed 5 days ahead of schedule. I would most definitely work with him on future projects."

"this contractor completed a paver patio, a new rear entry deck, and a stone retaining wall around a new garden building. They did all the work for the original estimate and went beyond expectations in what was expected!"

"Very knowledgeable. Very professional. Tries to fix the problem the cheapest way. He was the first to call after registering my project. Could not fix using a snake and said it was a bigger problem and he was correct. He did have to come back to complete the job. Two drains going into one line clogged who knows how many years. Suggested a pressure water treatment more expensive than snaking but it was very necessary. Stayed and checked and rechecked each drain running the water multiple times to make sure the drains were completely cleared. Would call again but hope we don't need his services. Be patient though. He was not on time"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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 range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

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.
