"Reubin was very professional, charged a fair price, and did a great job pressure washing our house. Painting is not normally one of the services they offer, but Reubin recognized that we had an urgent need to repaint some exterior wood paneling before we had the house appraised, and offered to do the job as well. Quality Custom Cleaning is flexible and will work with your schedule to make sure that you are satisfied."

"It went amazingly. The employee I talked to over the phone was really caring and was able to get me all the answers I needed in a timely manner. The turf looks absolutely beautiful and my dogs love it! The install team did a really great job and were even willing to come back after the fact to fix a small problem with no issues. I would highly recommend this product and company to anyone thinking about getting turf."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Depending on who you hire to build a retaining wall, the average cost, including demolition and reconstruction, for a 50-foot wall that's 4 feet in height is between $7,000 and $24,000.

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.

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.

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.
