"The overall experience was really good. Scott kept in touch with me via phone and email after our first contact. I got advance notice about when they would be available to do the work, and the day the work was scheduled, they showed up on time. I was given a walk through on everything they needed to do, they gave me some options where decisions needed to be made. The crew was respectful of my property. They were not loud, they cleaned up everything in their work area. I'm satisfied with the finished result, and with the price I was given. I'm building what is basically a free stone retaining wall on one side, and I was even given some tips on how to make that go smoothly! I've very satisfied, and if I need this type of service again, I'm going to call Green Landscaping first."

"Scott Buff is a very talented person.  He has great ideas about remodeling homes.  He just has a eye for helping you make the right decisions about what materials to use and the color schemes.  He is very trust worthy in what he says he will do and his prices are very competitive.  You know old saying "You pay for what you get".  The workmanship is beautiful.  I can't begin to tell you all the compliments that I have had on all the remodeling that has been done to my house.  The first thing people ask me is, who did the work because they did a great job.  It makes me feel proud to know I chose such a wonderful company to represent me.  I am thinking about getting my greatroom painted.  Guess who will do it?  Cultured creations.

"Black River Landscaping went above and beyond my expectations. After having to completely replace a sewage line full of roots, we were having soil erosion issues outside of the house and flooding issues inside the house. Black River Landscaping put in a French drain, fixed the clipped underground gutters left by the plumbers, and re-sod the whole area. My yard has never looked nicer!"

"First, let us say this: We would not hesitate for a moment to call Mack & his guys from Choice Home Builders if we had some work we wanted done on the house. They are totally professional, they do exactly what they say they are going to do, exactly when they say they are going to do it, at the price they quoted from the beginning, and they do it to perfection. Flawless. Really, really impressive work. We wish ALL contractors were like this.
Our story - We came home from a 10 day vacation, and found our bedroom ceiling was partially collapsed onto the floor, and water was dripping from the ceiling fan/light in the middle of the room. The carpet was completely soaked. It was a disaster area.
From the time they started, the crew from Choice Home Builders. LLC, were completely professional, very efficient, and still very friendly. They asked any questions in a very timely fashion, and would then go right back to working on the room. They had no objections about us popping in to see how things were going, and ALWAYS, things were going very well. They got rid of all the damaged materials, and replaced sections or things that had been damaged by the water very conscientiously. If it was possible it was water-damaged, it was replaced. No questions asked about that -  if it needed to go, it went. 
We had a complex, custom-installed closet system that had to come down for painting. The took down all of the custom closet system, numbered it, and after repainting the closet & trim, they replaced this system so it was exactly the way it was when they took it down. Phenomenal. No errors, just very good work.
They replaced the large section of drywall in the ceiling that had gotten soaked/wet, and replaced it. It looks better than the original ceiling did. They replaced the insulation they had to pull down that had gotten wet, not just above the ceiling, but below the house, as well. I didn't even think about the insulation under the house, but they did, and they took care of it. Some of the wall required repainting, so they repainted the entire bedroom & the closet, so the paint would match. It's a very professional-lookiing job, once again something I would not have thought of, but they did. The entire ceiling was repainted. We were told to go to Lowe's and pick out whatever ceiling fan we wanted within a given price range. The price range was very generous; we had a very nice, very expensive Hunter fan that was ruined, and we were able to replace it with another very nice, high-end Hunter ceiling fan/light combination. The Choice Home Builders team got the ceiling fan & light put up and working very shortly after they finished the ceiling. We were told to go pick out new carpeting for the entire bedroom and the closet. Again, the price range we were given was more than generous enough for us to choose a carpet that was appealing, and of very good quality to replace the carpet that was ruined. The carpet installation team was 100% professional, got the carpet all laid, seamed, and stretched, in a half a day. There is a pattern in the weave of the carpet that required the installers to match up the seams; while they were still working on the carpet, I knew where one of the seams had to be. I could NOT find it. I looked very, very hard, and had to actually go to the carpet at the edge of the wall to find where one length of carpet ended, and the next began. The layout and size of the room required THREE such seams, and I simply cannot find them. Just WOW!!!
I would say that pretty much defines our entire experience with Choice Home Builders - we have not had to worry about anything. No worries about when things will be done, when to expect someone to come and do some job in the room - we were absolutely kept in the loop, we were aware at all times who was working in the room, and what they were doing. We've been allowed to watch the progress, haven't had to make any kind of comment or make any kind of remarks other than what fan/light we wanted, what color paint, and which carpet we wanted. Everything else ran as smooth as silk.
The head of Choice Home Builders, Mack Brazell, checked in with us on a regular basis. He wanted to know how we thought things were going, was everything going to our satisfaction, were we happy with his foreman & his crew - just making sure that we were completely happy with all the work being done, and how it was being done. And resoundingly YES, we were thrilled with this company from Day One, until the crew put the furniture & furnishings back in the room the day after the carpet went down. There were no long delays, no wondering about anything. These guys work like a well-oiled machine. And they want what they have done for you to be as good if not better than what they would do in their own home - we just always had the feeling they CARED about the mess that had been the bedroom, and their pride in giving us back a master bedroom that is - honestly speaking, now - NICER than the room was before the water damage.

"Very well and quick. Left the yard in shape as if they hadn't been there. Stump ground down level with ground. Glad they came and took care of a nagging problem that could have gotten worse, as the tree was rotten to the center of the trunk. Price was good work done better."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Most retaining wall installations can be finished in one to three weeks, but the timeline varies based on factors like wall size and material. The local climate and major weather events, such as storms or flooding, can also extend the project's timeline, as can any holds ups in the permitting process.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its material, installation quality, maintenance, and local climate, with an average range of 20 to 100 years. Retaining walls made from durable materials like concrete, stone, and brick generally last a minimum of 50 years. Concrete walls typically last between 50 and 100 years, while brick can last for over a century in ideal conditions. Timber retaining walls can last from 20 to 40 years, depending on the wood quality, and pressure-treated wood walls average around 30 years. It is important to note that a retaining wall can fail prematurely if it was poorly constructed, for example, with inefficient footings or without necessary rebar reinforcements.

Through proper drainage solutions and compacting the foundation soil.

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.

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.
