"This was a fairly extensive project. My backyard was nothing but weeds and rocks and dirt, in pits and valleys. I wanted a green lawn, and different levels, separated by a wall. I picked Pierce because he was well reviewed, and he didn’t try to upsell me. “You don’t need a retaining wall” he said, just stairs. When I was considering mulch rather than seed he said a similar thing “I don’t even think mulch will work with all the thistle you have.” I found Pierce to be very knowledgeable in addressing issues that came up throughout the project, and very efficient. I checked him on the cost of each phase of the project, and I always found his number reasonable. He is a bit of a perfectionist - he wants things done the right way. But the result has been worth it. I now have a beautiful lawn and steps where before there was nothing. He has even followed up with me several times since to check on how the lawn is progressing. I am very satisfied."

"Edgar has done everything from tearing down and rebuilding brick stoop walls and topping with new cement toppers, repointing brickwork on the main house to repairing a very high chimney on a terra cotta roof. He also followed us to our new home in a different county and did timely repairs and topped our stone chimney and acid washed the stone fireplace inside. He is very professional and polite, does great work at a fair price."

"I was extremely impressed with the work Atila and his crew performed. He kept me informed on each step of the process and everyone was extremely nice and respectful. I love the color and pattern of the stamped concrete. They are extremely knowledgeable about concrete and meticulous in their work! I honestly can't say enough good things and look forward to using them again for our porch and walkway."

"This was a joint project shared with my neighbor. We are a pair of twin houses. The crew was efficient and tireless in completing the project despite not having the bet weather condition to do concrete work. We would definitely recommend them to anyone that asks."

"The professionalism and honesty with which Mark Sr. handled my project and my situation was beyond something that I have ever seen. I would never think even twice before hiring Mark and his crew again. The work I got done was retaining walls around my patio. The quality of work done was excellent. The entire staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Both Jimmy and Robert, who did the work, were awesome. They kept us informed of what they were doing the entire time. They finished up the work pretty fast as promised. I am so glad I found them on homeadvisor. Great company and folks to work with."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.  

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.

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.

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