"Please don't use this company!! They came to my house to blow out my sprinkler system and that went ok but Jim said that my system had weak valves or solenoid's and then apparently to prove his point he snapped one off in the valve box. He then took me over to an outside electrical junction box and said that chipmunks had gotten in and were chewing the wires, when I started to bend down to see what he was talking about he pushed himself in and said, "here let me help you", and got out his folding knife and began to jam it into the box all the way to the bottom as though he was digging in the soil in the bottom of the can. The he started telling me that I had a lot of problems with my system but that he could fix everything in the spring for around $500.00. This was all a shock to me and left me befuddled since my system was working fine over the summer. I paid him and he left but then I remembered that last year when I had him out he said something about my valves not being the good kind and began to crank on them and I had to tell him please don't break them even if they aren't the strongest. Then I went back to the wiring box and looked more closely and found that all the wires had been cleanly cut all at the same point and the cut was fresh with shiny wire exposed! Definitely not chipmunks!! I called Jim and confronted him about breaking my valve and cutting the wires and asked him why he had jammed his knife into the box the way he did and he said, "Oh the wires were impacted with soil". When pressed further he went back to the chipmunk story. He was clearly damaging my system in order to create future cash flow for himself. These guys are total scammers!!! I told him I want a refund, but he didn't agree to this and I haven't seen one yet. Avoid this company at all cost!! I'm telling all my neighbors to dump this guy. I only hope that this post can save others what I had to experience. Huge breech of trust!! I only gave this company one star because it wouldn't let me post my comments with zero stars. They deserve negative five stars."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Options include concrete, stone, brick, and wood, tailored for specific design needs.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its particular material, whether it was properly installed, how well it’s maintained, and your local climate. Concrete, stone, and brick retaining walls last the longest, with concrete lasting between 50 and 100 years on average. Brick tends to last the longest, with a minimum of one century, under the right conditions. 

Timber retaining walls can start to deteriorate at 20 years, depending on the wood quality, but in the best case, they can last 40 years. Pressure-treated wood retaining walls last 30 years on average.

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.
