"I am most happy to give Chic Masonry a glowing review. In addition to the quoted work, Diego (I had forgotten to say anything to him) noticed some small issues that he corrected without even being asked. People don?t do that anymore. I am a retired architect, and I have seen it all. Best to worst contractors. These guys are just exceptional. The whole crew. Great experience. Kevin Smith"

Customers say: True professional

"We have been restoring an old bungalow porch that had been screened in and neglected for many years. When we took down the old screen, we realized that the brick walls had no capping. Hence, us needing someone skilled in concrete. Geovanni and his team were great! Very quick and efficient with their work. We feel that we were quoted/charged fairly. The work is beautiful and we love how our porch looks now. We definitely recommend GC Construction."

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Sand and gravel are two suitable options for filling behind a retaining wall. If you’re building your own retaining wall, you’ll complete this part of the process—known as backfilling—after you finish laying the blocks. Make sure not to skip it—otherwise, you could wind up with drainage issues, which can cause your retaining wall to collapse.

There are contractors specifically trained in the design and construction of retaining walls. Retaining wall contractors are skilled at dealing with the soil on your property and assessing what kind of drainage should be installed. They will recommend the best materials to use for the project and can handle the processing of permits by local authorities.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

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