"I can't say enough good about Abraham and his team, but I'll try! Our project: Convert a corner of our yard from mulch and a few plants into a paver patio with a gazebo. Abraham was so helpful, kind, and thoughtful as we discussed the initial project. He was also the only person out of all the bids I got that said they could just build and install the gazebo we had ordered. The others said they'd need to outsource that service for an additional fee. Once we decided to move forward with our paver patio and gazebo, Abraham quickly got us on the schedule. On day 1, we realized we would actually need to install a retaining wall in addition to everything. He talked us through that decision and we decided to keep moving forward. And then I kid you not, they worked *all day long*â quite literally from sunup to sundown. Such impressive dedication to the job. They got most of the pavers down that day, as well as the retaining wall. They came back a couple days later, late afternoon, and moved the sprinklers that had been displaced back into our lawn, then cut and capped all our drip lines that had been in the spot where the patio was installed. They also replaced our downspout drain popup in the lawn that had also needed to be moved, and they replaced as much grass as possible that had been cut out for the patio. And then on day 3, a couple more days later, they built our Purple Leaf gazebo (we bought separately) and installed it, bolting it firmly into the pavers and concrete footing they poured. They worked hard and they worked fast, and I can't overstate how much I appreciate it. They really are landscaping experts, and Abraham has a fantastic eye for design. The best part is that they did all this for easily the best price around. The other bids I got were a few thousand more for the same work, and that was without including the gazebo installation fees. The finished product is an absolute stunning little backyard oasis that we'll enjoy for the rest of this summer and for many summers to come. In short, they worked hard and fast for the best price possible, delivering a high-quality finished product that we love. I would highly recommend AR Custom Landscaping, and we'll definitely work with them again in the future as more yard needs crop up."

"Coming up with ideas for how our new addition would connect to our home was difficult, and we were unsure of the best approach, but after working with Nathan at Wasatch Design and Engineering, his knowledge and persistence helped us come up with the best solution and worked out so well with the difficult terrain we had to work with. Thanks again Nathan, and team at Wasatch Design and Engineering"

"Alex ran this project as well and got help from Chris and his crew to zero scape my front yard. Rocks, 2 flower beds, and a long bush/tree bed. With some boulders. Its beautiful and no more yard work. They simultaneously did my driveway and my yard in 3 days 6 hours. It was so awesome! This company rocks it like no other."

"The job was expertly completed. Eddie is friendly, responsible, and does outstanding work. He designed and installed railing and capstones on a retaining wall. He completed a block wall as part of the job. He was quick, very fair in his pricing, and an absolute pleasure. He was punctual and efficiently completed the job. We will definitely hire him again for our next landscaping project.without"

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. 

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.

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.

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.
