"We had a bad experience with a previous landscaper so we were very cautious this time as to whom we would choose to repair the existing problem. After we talked to Tim Comfort and he assured us that he could correct the existing problem and explained everything in detail that he would do we felt very confident that we picked the right landscaping company to help us. Tim and his team were very professional and repaired and cleaned up after themselves in a reasonable time. Thank you Tim and your crew for coming to our rescue."

"After meeting with a number of other contractors for our project, we decided to hire MD Construction. We hired MD Construction to replace the failing retaining wall in our driveway as well as installing steps to a paved pathway that leads to our yard. We met with Miguel (the owner of the MD Construction) and he is very knowledgeable with the process and materials involved. They gave us a great price and provided us with a copy of their insurance and NJ contractor’s license. When they started the work, we had very bad rainstorms the entire week, which made their job even harder. However, they were diligent and professional throughout the process and completed the project on time and within budget. The wall looks great and is an appealing improvement to the home. We will be using them again to replace our patio in our backyard."

"Chris and his two sons did an amazing job on remodeling my basement into a playroom for my twin boys. They were very sweet, made me feel comfortable and also were very good with my two toddler boys. The moment they came to my house to do an estimate, i felt very comfortable around them and they were very friendly and threw out ideas on the remodel, like lighting and other ideas. They finished the job in less than 30 days (which was the timeline given) and they were very patient with me when i had changed my mind on certain things. Chris even played with my boys and had conversations with me, so I felt like they were more family than strangers working on my house. They did an excellent job on the remodel and everything turned out better than I had envisioned it. They were always on time and always cleaned up each day after they were done. I will be using them again for future remodels and i'm very pleased with the job they did. Thank you again CM Contracting!"

"I hired Rovase to handle several large projects around my hilly property (just under 1 acre not far from Valley Forge Park). Robert, the Rovase owner, listened carefully when I described my landscaping preferences. I soon learned that his entire crew was listening closely, as well. 


I explained that I like a more natural looking landscape, rather than a carefully manicured design. I emphasized that "perfect" and "symmetry" don't work for me. For that reason I'd asked Robert to bring about 25 small boulders to my property to reinforce a retaining wall of boulders that was started but never properly finished by another well known professional (and inept) landscaper, years ago.


Robert's crew did much more then reinforce the old wall; they reconstructed it. They pulled out the original 12 or 15 boulders, put down heavy landscaping fabric, then replaced the original boulders and added the new ones. They extended the wall to the full length of the bank, thus preventing the continued erosion of soil that began immediately after the original waste-of-my-money landscaper installed his faulty version of a retaining wall. 


Rovase cleared out all of the weeds and volunteer saplings that had sprouted (due to at least five years of neglect) on the bank and throughout my property and planted about 30 ferns, shrubs, and flowering plants as I directed. They even took care to ensure that the best, fullest side of each planting faced out, which NO other landscaper ever did for me. 


I must admit that in their effort to clean things up, they removed a few small existing plantings that I did not intend to lose, but I partially fault myself because I didn't tell them to leave those items intact. The guys restored as many of those plants as they could, and I feel that they made up for that minor loss by going the extra mile on so many other parts of this enormous project. 


I asked Rovase to use stone instead of mulch to cover this steep bank. I opted for the extra cost of stone to preclude the mandatory annual mulch restoration. Besides that, I needed something more substantial than mulch to stop the perpetual erosion on that steep pitch. 


The team also dug a long trench across the back of my yard and filled it with more stone to channel and manage the runoff water coming from the home behind me, further uphill. This  will prevent further damage to the foundation of my detached garage, which has born the brunt of countless post-rainstorm rivers rushing through my backyard for the past several years, presumably due to an uphill neighbor's modified drainage. (Hmmm. . . thanks neighbor.)


I also asked Rovase to create a small path behind my mailbox so that I could access my mail without stepping on to my busy road. That required digging out a large section of the sloping bank leading down to my mailbox. I expected that to be a difficult excavation but they did it in very short order; before I knew it, my days of risking my life to get my mail was a thing of the past.


This short new mailbox path gave me evidence that the Rovase team really listened to my speech about preferring a natural, non-manicured look. One of the guys digging out the bank behind the mailbox came across several broad, flat stones under all of the earth he moved. He took the initiative to situate those stones in a line behind my mailbox, creating a lovely, natural looking path. 


He then called me to review his idea, saying he thought the stone might save me money AND suit my preference for imperfection better than the pavers I expected to buy for the path. I was (and still am) giddy over how perfectly his solution suits me. 


What really amazed me and sold me on Rovase? They listen AND care!!


They all worked hard, moving a LOT of stone and boulder material up my hill, but I didn't catch the slightest indication of complaint from anyone. Each fellow was smiling, cheerful, polite, and dedicated to customer satisfaction. It was truly an impressive group of guys. 


All in all, I am impressed with the quality of the work and the thoughtfulness of the workers from Rovase. I would and will hire them again for future landscaping needs. Also, because the company does other kinds of general contracting and building, I will solicit help from Rovase on other non-landscaping projects in the future.

"Matt and his crew did a great job in my backyard. It took a lot of hard work to remove old concrete in order to make new steps and a nice size patio. They also installed handrails down the steps-something I needed for a long time. Matt and his team were hard working, respectful and friendly. I would be happy to recommend them and I look forward to hiring them again."

"It was a very communicative experience from day one. They presented the project design, managed permits, excavation, construction assembly, and lighting. They were very flexible with their schedule and work environment. They were extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the project from start to finish. They worked very well with the township and other vendors involved in the project. They took the lead and were very sensitive to the timeline. They did not charge extra for change orders. It is a very nice Christian family business with strong quality standards. I have no problem recommending them."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.

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.

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. 

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.

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.
