"I hired Kirk and his crew to tear out a rotten retaining wall that backed up to a creek. It was not an easy location to work and the guys did an amazing job. The new retaining wall is incredible. Kirk and his team went above and beyond. I highly recommend them for any retaining wall projects!"
"Very professional job, you canâ t even tell the retaining wall had any damage. I was given several repair options with the pros and cons of each option. Staff wonderful to work with. Would hire them again in a heartbeat and already recommended to my aunt who needs masonry work."

"I was contacted by Jesse today and he came out, looked at what needed to be done, went and purchased materials to be used, came back and finished project. Did an excellent job and was very reasonable in project cost. I will hire again."
"Jason Hanks was the inspector from Groundworks who examined our crawl space, hazmat suit and all. He was thorough and completely professional. We were scheduled for repairs very quickly!"
"We used Vesta Foundations for our driveway repair. Mike, Omar, and Rudy did an incredible job and were very professional. They explained the different phrases as they completed each repair which was very helpful. They used a foam to fill in the voids underneath our driveway and also sealed our joints and put a drainage system from our gutters to carry the water on down the side of the driveway."
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.
Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.
Regular inspection for issues like cracks or leaning and ensuring drainage stays clear.
If you've decided you'd like to skip the cost of restoring a brick exterior wall after considering whether you should repair or replace brick on your house, you can consider installing fiber cement siding over brick for a cost of $2 to $6 per square foot. When done properly, cement siding over brick offers a durable, low-maintenance option that can actually reduce your home's energy costs. It's also attractive. However, improper installation or installation over heavily compromised brick can cause water damage.
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.
