"I would like to recommend Bulldog Exteriors to everyone. Aaron Harris and his crew pressure washed our entire home, replaced wood rot and wrapped the eaves with aluminum and vinyl. In addition they calked and painted all the doors and windows in our home. After that was a complete replacement of the gutters with larger and screen protected gutters. All paint, vinyl, aluminum, and gutters are color matched to perfection with the color of our choice. All of this worked was priced reasonably for all of the work involved. The only delay was a weather day and a delay in getting the materials in from suppliers. Aaron is a Citadel Graduate and headquartered in Ridgeville. A true local company we should support.

"Our backyard was a combination racetrack and minefield with our two young pups, and, after several attempts to fill in dirt and grass or lay sod, we contacted Holy City Synthetic Turf. What an amazing transformation!! They came out and gave us an estimate, and within two weeks, we had a beautiful green yard!! Our pups absolutely love it, and we love not only the look and ease of maintenance, but the fact that they no longer track mud and dirt through our house. Mitchell and his entire crew were wonderful--they were friendly and easy to work with, and their attention to detail was impeccable!! The quality of both the product and the installation is exceptional. You can count on them to do a first-class job!!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Installation typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the wall’s size and site conditions.

Proper design and construction prevent erosion and add structural stability to landscapes.

Generally speaking, a retaining wall should be between 3 and 4 feet high, depending on variables such as the wall-building material, the purpose of the retaining wall, and more. If you want your retaining wall to be taller than 4 feet, check with your local building ordinance office for the maximum allotment. You may also need a special permit for retaining walls over 4 feet tall.

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

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.
