"Giovanni and his team removed the paint from my three house chimneys I had asked him to paint over the white and he thought I would be happier to have the chimney's restored to the origingal brick boy was he correct. While up on the roof he cleared it of moss and dirt, cleaned and repainted my 6 dormers. . His price was lower than other quotes I got. I got a fixed price for the project yet when he did somethings he thought needed to be done - like power wash my garage doors and side he didn't ask for more money. Giovanni doesn't speak English however his assistant Arlette was in constant contact with me translating and orchestrating conversations between us. She texted me when the guys would come and leave. For my barn roof painting project Giovanni pointed out that I had to shore it up. He was correct. I feared the worst. But he reinforced beams and made the entire barn secure by installing steel beams I had between three of the support beams. The price to do this was VERY reasonable. Most contractors overdo projects then charge for it. The photo is of the back of my barn which had a rotting overhang. He saved the gutter (most would had wanted to replace it) ripped down the useless overhang, installed metal sheeting along the face and reinstalled the gutter."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.

Regular inspection for issues like cracks or leaning and ensuring drainage stays clear.

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.

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.

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