"Albert did an excellent job repairing our ceiling which had water damage from leak in our air conditioning. He arrived 2 days to complete the plaster job . We are pleased with ceiling which had a pattern. Can't tell any difference in the pattern that he repaired. Would recommend Albert for any plastering or drywall job."

"I had just fired a hack handyman who tried to skim a wall and what a mess! Dale responded to my request very quickly and was available for an estimate that evening. He was very nice, easy going and humble, yet spoke confidently about his ability to fix the mess and deliver excellent results. He was hired immediately. In 2 days, my room was beautifully skimmed with smooth walls, and sharp corners. Dale worked professionally, efficiently, clean. He went an extra mile to paint the finished wall and ceiling for me. Appropriate cost. Definitely would have back for anything plaster."

"The handyman process went very well! Chris was able to identify the issue and was able to fix it whilst going the extra mile to make sure that it was done right. I would highly recommend this person for pretty much any home repair project you can think of!"

"Interior Painting (walls in entire house plus baseboards, door trim, doors). Incredibly impressed by Alex and his team! From the initial walk through to completion they are the consummate professionals with a high level of customer service. Alex "gets it". They were forced to clean up work of a previous contractor and did it with a smile. Very high quality work that includes a warranty. Something to note: Alex walked through to provide an estimate and had a team at my house 2 hours later. SAI offers Commercial and residential. I highly recommend !"

"We had a wonderful experience with Bucklew Basements. They came in quickly and got the job done. Their team was friendly and explained everything clearly. The work was not only done with quality and care, but they also did a stellar job with post-job cleanup. We have an old basement with limestone walls that were in need of repair. We also had a retaining wall put into our basement. Everything is now dry, sealed and clean. Do not hesitate to hire these guys!"

"Trent did a fantastic job remodeling our bathroom, exhibiting precision workmanship with having to ensure the walls were square and plumb, as well as leveling the uneven basement floor, and putting in a cool curved shower door. He put marble tile in the shower, making sure each tile was perfectly aligned with the others to get a mirror affect from a distance. He then graciously handled a curveball from the customer (that’s me!) when I decided to change the color of the grout AFTER one wall was done. He obliged and re-grouted to my satisfaction, with no harm done to the beautiful marble tiles!"

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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. 

Through proper drainage solutions and compacting the foundation soil.
