"Part of our home is an 1850 stone farmhouse. The basement walls, two of which are built into a hill, were beginning to crumble and water was beginning to seep in. Edgar didn't just fix the problem, they exceeded our wildest imagination of what those walls could look like. We've been through some serious rain since and they are perfectly dry and look amazing! If the house falls today those two walls will still be standing! Very prompt service, reasonable priced and super easy to work with. We'll be hiring them again for some future stone wall repair upstairs."

"John of Plymouth Nursery and Landscaping and his staff were wonderful. They did a terrific job cleaning up my property and planting all new beautiful shrubs and plants. Also installed a system to help with my water problem. My property was in desperate need of a face lift and John and his crew came through. I would recommend Plymouth Nursery and Landscaping!"

"Patrick and his team were wonderful to work with for our stone and brick repointing! They came on time as scheduled for both the quote (which was very fair for the work that needed done) and actual work start date. The work they did looks amazing, and they took care to make the new sections of mortar have the same style as the old sections on our beautiful Victorian. Patrick even pointed out several other issues (some of which we were aware of), and prioritized them based on severity. We will happily be hiring them again for our masonry needs!"

"Ken Brehm & his crew are impeccable. I have in the past several years had Ken do like work on my retaining wall, steps, walkway & porch. In addition he has rough cast both of the outsides side walls of my home. Given that I have hired Ken these countless times speaks to the level of his expertise. I would NOT consider anyone else to do this type of work for me. On top of that, without question, he is an extremely friendly, considerate guy."

"Work went great. Mark and team (especially Geno) were very good at their jobs, took time to ensure the quality was there, and always gave us different options before moving ahead with any changes in scope. Given they found, while replacing a roofdeck, that the back wall of our house had extensive termite & water damage, their forthright approach, genuine concern for us as homeowners, and impeccable professionalism were huge positives of the experience."

"The job was to remove a load bearing wall, install new kitchen (we purchased cabinets, quartz countertops, backsplash tile and appliances separately), install new trim and crown molding, new bamboo flooring (purchased separately), install new electrical outlets, install can lights and build a custom wine rack and liquor cabinet. The demo of the load bearing wall required moving electrical and HVAC ducts that fed to an upstairs bed room. Kip met with us a few hours to bid the job and do a CAD mockup of the finished product. He left us with a scope of work and told us that the price wouldn't change unless we added it deducted from the scope of work. He kept to his word and did not charge us a penny more that what we agreed to, even when unexpected fixes came up during construction. A team of 2-3 workers showed up almost every morning at 7am and worked all day while we were at work. They also worked on weekends to ensure things were done on time. On weekends they always checked with us to see what time was appropriate for them to show up. We got to talk to Scott, our project manager, every morning about the status of the job, how we liked what was done so far and if we wanted anything changed or done differently. We thought that was extremely thoughtful and we're happy to give our input when needed. Scott was a perfectionist and went above and beyond to make sure that everything was done to the standard he would expect in his own him. When the job was done, Kip had the areas of the house that were remodeled cleaned out and came back 2 weeks later to fix anything we saw that wasn't perfect. He also told us that the work is under warranty, so anything doesn't will be replaced or fixed. Kip (owner) and his team did an amazing job on our home remodel. The crew was very friendly, accommodating and respectful of our home. We will definitely work with kip again and world recommend him to anyone."

"I recently hired Clark Chimney and Masonry for a chimney cap and liner replacement and I'm extremely satisfied with their service. The team was prompt, professional, and efficient. They took great care in ensuring a clean work environment and thoroughly explained the process. The pricing was fair, and I appreciated their friendly customer service. I highly recommend [Chimney Service Company] for anyone in need of reliable and top-notch chimney services!"

"They were amazing! They worked with me to come up with a solution that I could afford and the work was impeccable. Not a single weed dared to stick its head up when they were done. And, they cleared everything away when they were done! I would recommend Chip, chop and Grind to anyone needing landscape services!"

"CMP was responsive, easy to work with, and at a fair price.  My driveway is approximately 1200 sq feet and had drainage issues.  They removed the old driveway and installed the new driveway along with a drain system to ensure drainage to the street.  In addition they power washed my steps and front bricks and painted the railing.  Overall the front of my house went through an overhaul and looks a thousand times cleaner and more attractive.  CMP was easy to work with and responsive.  I found it easy to communicate with them via email.  They were responsive and found the time to get the work done despite poor weather.  I would definitely work with CMP in the future."

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.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

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.

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.  

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.
