"Our experience with Russell Laine Construction was hands down the best experience we've ever had with a contractor. From the initial contact and quote, to the finished product, Ed and his crew were a pleasure to work with. Professionalism, Communication and Workmanship were all excellent! We really appreciated the attention to detail and little extra touches that really shined through on the final product. During the construction process, we were always amazed at the little details that were added that we knew took more time and effort, but showed that Ed truly cared about the project and making things special for the homeowner. We would (and have already) recommend Russell Laine Construction to anyone looking to have quality work done on their home. You won't be disappointed!"

"We met Scott with Union III at the Columbus home and garden show and we were able to talk with him and ask him questions. We had a few companies come out to give us quotes for what our thoughts were for a back patio. Scott did a wonderful job of drawing up what our ideas were and what the best placement would be for things and we also talked about having a flower bed with different greenery around the whole area. We were able to go to their office and actually check out the different pavers and colors and also change any designs before signing on with them. For everything that we got with our patio and greenery it was still a lower price than some of the other companies that we had out. When they came out, they finished everything within a week and that week happen to be the hottest week of the summer and they did a fantastic job. Scott and the workers at Union III were great to work with and I would recommend them to anybody who is looking to get a patio. We live in a new constructed neighborhood and towards the end of summer we had a neighborhood party and talking and meeting the new neighbors when they found out which house we were all of them said “oh you’re the house that has the beautiful patio, and we just admire it every time we walk by.”"

"They did much more than just the selected description. They remove a reinforced concrete pad, leveled the ground and covered with river rock. Then they stripped sod installed pavers and river rock in two new sections. Finally, they stripped sod and added river rock in two additional areas. He has done great work for me in the past and this project was no exception. I recommend him to others all the time."

"Chris was very prompt in responding to issues. Explained what I needed and why. After installation we had a very cold spell and I experienced one problem. They came immediately and knew issue was with cold, ice, and winds and were able to help me. Look forward to working with company in near future on several projects. Thank you CRC!"

"Scott above and beyaond what I expected. Actually the last long day to finish he came by himself and made sure it was as promised. he had some challenges, weather, bee sting, driving time, and a few other problems. We did not make a time to be complete and I am glad, beacuse of all that happened. Our home is now a show place in our community, thanks to Scott and his crew."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

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.

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.

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.
