Customers say: Quality work

"Ben did amazing work installing our concrete patio, firepit, and retaining wall. Ben and his team were always timely and communicated with us every step of the way. He was always willing to go the extra mile (like taking our green bin to the curb!), And cleaned up after himself beautifully. Keeping his customers happy is important to Ben and it shows. I highly recommend Rockman Concrete services for any concrete project one might have!"

"My wife and I hired Forest Landscape to remove our old rotted pressure treated retaining wall by our Koi pond and replace with natural black basalt rock. They also removed our wood raised garden walls and replaced with paver stone with a top cap. They also removed our badly installed basalt rock pathway that was loose and lifting up. The rock pathway was installed only three years ago by Cornerstone Hardscapes. Forest Landscapes installed a stamped concrete pathway where the basalt rock pathway was removed Jose and Rigo Castaneda were very professional to work with and there crew were real craftsman with attention to detail. They showed up on time and worked even on Saturday to finish project on time. We will hire them again for any future projects."

"We hired Patrick Concrete to install a concrete patio around the front of our house with a connection to the two front doors. Patrick and his crew were very courteous and professional. We talked with him about some specific design considerations that we wanted. He helped us with some preliminary work, made some very practical suggestions, and gave us the end product we had asked for. His price was reasonable. He started the project right away and did the pour as soon as weather permitted. I would use Patrick Concrete again and recommend them to others."

"A crew of two came to help clean up the seriously insane amount of gravel and weed fabric strewn throughout our property. The team showed up on time, hauled and dug everything out, and made everything level and nice to start rebuilding good soil. Hard working, finished within projected project timeline, and kind folks - 10/10 would hire again!"

Retaining Wall Installers 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.

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.  

They prevent soil erosion, add flat space, and enhance property aesthetics.

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. 

Yes, you can use cinder blocks for many purposes, including retaining walls, foundations, garage walls, and fences. Building a cinder block retaining wall costs between $60 and $200 per linear foot, including materials and professional labor. For a 30-foot-long retaining wall, the cost ranges from $1,800 to $6,000.
