"They were amazing! This is actually my second time using this company. Easy to work with, very attentive, and very clean. I was surprised at how clean they were everyday after working all day. We had new grass installed with a nice flagstone walkway next to our drive way. New plants planted alone the walk up to my doorway. Really gave my home some curb appeal! Again, work was excellent and Eric really does pay attention to detail. I highly recommend this company for your next project. We will definitely be calling them back for our fall project."

Customers say: Quality work

"Being new to San Antonio, I didn't know any landscapers. So I turned to Angie's list. I'm so glad I did.
Kevin, of Botanical Designs, met me at my house to go over our desires and our budget. He worked with me to develop a beautiful landscape that stayed in budget. We are a shining star in the neighborhood thanks to Kevin's expert design.
Once started, the landscape took a couple of weeks to complete. They patiently worked around the construction crews and fixed what others broke. Kevin used native and nativized plants that are thriving. He was, and is, concerned about water flow on the property. He incorporated some natural techniques that are doing very well. I'm sure we will be return to implement more of his ideas.
George, Kevin's site manager, is a true professional. He was at our house over 90% of the time that the Botanical Landscape crew was working. George explained all of the native plants which were knew to me.
My only regret is that I couldn't do more. But, as I told Kevin, he's a part of the family and will be working on our house for years to come.

"Ricardo Obregon and his crew did a fantastic job of designing, excavating and installing a custom shaped paver walkway in our front yard. They were very professional and efficient. We will call on them again when the need arises."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.

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.

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.

Options include concrete, stone, brick, and wood, tailored for specific design needs.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.
