"Super job and started on time. They did a great job on both projects - both the driveway and the section of the driveway they underpinned with a great looking retaining wall."

"Several months ago my wife and I had our master bath remodeled by a local contractor with many written recommendations. The remodeling job was a disaster. The plumbing fixtures leaked within the wall
which caused subfloor damage and mold and mildew behind the wall and vanity. Cracks in the grout developed almost immediately after the project was completed.  A shower wall that was installed was not installed to the existing wall properly which resulted in a very unstable shower wall. The shower floor was not installed properly thus water from the shower did not flow to the shower drain but puddled at the side of the shower floor.
After looking at Angie?s list we contracted with Willy?s Tile to make the required repairs to the faulty work completed by the original contractor. The repairs were extensive and we are 110% satisfied with the work
that was done by Willy?s Tile. 
The work was done professionally and to our complete satisfaction. A new wall was installed and plumbing redone to perfection. The subfloor was repaired in the shower and a new shower pan and tile was installed. The slope was corrected so all water flowed to the drain. Additionally, all other inferior, unprofessional faulty work performed by the original contractor was repaired by Willy?s Tile to our complete satisfaction.
We did not know exactly what repairs needed to be done as we continued to discovered faulty work by the first contractor as the repair work progressed. Willy was very professional in performing the repairs, showed us
daily the problems he discovered in the original work and made all repairs professionally and to our total satisfaction.
We were very please with the quote we received from Willy?s Tiles for the repairs and feel the quote was more than justified for the quality and professionalism of the work performed by Willy?s Tile.  The crew from Willy?s Tile were courteous, professional and focused on ensuring that the repair worked performed was to our expectation . The attention to detail exhibited by the men from Willy?s Tile was beyond our expectation.
I recommend Willy?s Tile for any work needed whether new or repair. We got 2 more projects planned, the remodeling of a guest bathroom and a brick patio. We plan to use Willy?s Tile exclusively for both projects without seeking any other bids.

"After waiting 3 weeks for the original installer of my irrigation system to help me, with no appointment in site, I turned to Angie's List. Brandon of Aairic's Irrigation and Sod Works came to my home the very next day, and within 30 minutes he and his team had my system working perfectly. That was 3 days ago, and now my landscape looks vibrant again. I will definitely call Brandon again when needed."

"OUTSTANDING! Mr. Perez and his crew were professional and courteous. They assessed the project; explained all that had to be done; and set out to complete the job. Mr. Perez answered all our questions and addressed the issues we raised. It was an absolute pleasure working with this company. Had them come back to install a new timer. Terrific!"

"I really appreciate the quality of work that Mr. Fuller does and his positive attitude.  He is a very resourceful young man, a jack of all trades, with an eye for design.   Also he is always friendly and kind.  On this occasion he cleaned my gutters, which had not been cleaned in a year, without batting an eye, and then pressure-washed them.  I have known him for 4 years and in performing his work he has always exceeded my expectations.  He has built flower and vegetable gardens for my property, always getting me the best price on materials, and giving me the most economical labor charges.  He also did some erosion control for my yard.  In addition, he installed my wood stove and pipe in the living room, and a solar generator in the basement, running a line to the panel which he installed on the roof.  He also painted a few rooms inside my house.  The quality of work he does is exceptional.  Mr. Fuller  has always gone above and beyond the call of duty, in helping me with small household things unrelated to the work, and never charging me for them.  I highly recommend Mr. Fuller for yard and lawn work, maintenance, and just about any house-related job.

"I am only writing this review because Angie's List keeps bugging me to do so. i did not want to review, because most of my problems have also been documented by other customers on here. I should have paid attention. It makes me angry to even think about this again.
I purchased two "deals" for three man hours of landscape clean up.
The contractor was over an hour late for the initial consultation. I had to call and ask whether or not he was coming and the office had to call and remind him. When he showed up, he said he looked at his watch wrong and thought it was actually an hour earlier than it was.
We walked around the property and he made a written list of what I wanted done and what could be included in the deal price. We agreed on a price as well as some additional items that we would pay for that would not be included. He did stipulate that I would have to pay for the landscape cloth as that would not be included in the labor. (He did not say I needed to provide it, just that I would have to pay for it.) I agreed and we set a time for the work to be accomplished.
It rained on that day and the guys knocked on the door and said they couldn't work and the office would call back and reschedule. I called back the next day to reschedule, which ended up being for the week before we left town on vacation.
The guys showed up that next week and wanted me to come outside and show them what needed to be done. They did not have a copy of the estimate or anything that was written down at the initial visit. They did not have landscape cloth and indicated that was usually provided by the client and they didn't keep it on the truck. They would have to come back on *another* day and install it. 
So they did half the work on the first day and left a huge five-foot high pile of branches down by the street. I had indicated during the initial consultation that branches would have to be trimmed and bundled in order for the city to collect. Contractor said he would do that and it would be included. I even asked the guys about it while they were working and they assured me they would cut them down and bag or bundle. I cannot even describe the huge mess that was just dumped at the road - it blocked the view of cars turning off of our street. They used two of the landscape waste bags that I provided but left two empty ones lying in the middle of the yard and just got back on the truck and left.
I called the office and - in addition to arranging a time for them to come back to install the landscape cloth, asked them to bundle or bag the yard waste. Customer service person on the phone said they would. We were leaving on vacation that day and the service would take place while we were gone. Returned home from vacation and the landscape cloth and mulch were installed but the yard waste had not been touched. I called *again* to tell them and ask them to remove the branches even if I had to pay for a separate trip because I needed this out of my yard! Guy called me back and said he would come take care of it and set a date to do it. Never showed.
I ended up paying an extra fee to the city to get them to come pick up the branches. Also, several months later, we experienced flooding in our crawlspace, when I went to check around the foundation, I found that the landscape cloth had been placed flush against the house, which left water pooling and then running downhill into the crawlspace access. I spent an entire day digging and ripping it back out.
From now on, I am extremely reluctant to purchase "deals" especially from companies that obviously regularly offer them. Apparently it is because no one will hire them otherwise. I wanted to try this company out to see if their work was good before hiring for a larger landscape project. Now I know that if If I want quality work at all, I will can pay full price for it.  No more "deals."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like. 

Yes, you can use cinder blocks for many purposes, including retaining walls, foundations, garage walls, and fences. Building a cinder block retaining wall costs between $60 and $200 per linear foot, including materials and professional labor. For a 30-foot-long retaining wall, the cost ranges from $1,800 to $6,000.

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

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.

Generally, a railroad tie retaining wall consisting of a single line of ties should be between 3 and 4 feet tall—and the height often tops out at around 6 feet. You can go taller, but you may need additional footings and reinforcements, including a second layer of railroad ties to support the added weight of the soil it’s holding back.
