"We have used Edger and his crew for a few years now for spring and fall cleanup, tree removal, leaf removal and even running loads to the dump. Very professional and far with pricing on work performed. Will be using him for many years to come. Have even recommended him to family and neighbors and they were very happy with him."

"We hired Francisco (owner) to do a complete overhaul of our front and back yard. It was a huge project (grading, xeriscaping, sprinklers, sod and a retaining wall) and the attention to detail combined with a depth of knowledge in every area was impressive. In addition to being a great professional (excellent communication over the course of the project), Francisco was delightful to work with. We actually miss him already. I would highly recommend Knockout."

"I got three quotes, and they were very competitively priced. They completed the work quickly and did an excellent job cleaning up afterward. The new concrete matched our existing concrete perfectly, and the finished driveway looks great. I would definitely hire them again. In fact, after seeing how good our driveway turned out, our neighbors hired them and they’re working on their house now."

"Worx installed a sprinkler system and laid sod for our front and back yards. They were prompt in their replies during the estimate, honest about what it would cost and the work involved, and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with the finished product."

"We love Kodiak Landscape! We have a tiny yard with zero grass and Clayton was somehow able to turn it into a magical garden with his creative genius. We love spending time in our yard and get compliments on it almost daily! Clayton has expansive knowledge about landscape, pays very close attention to detail and has an artistic creativity that really sets him apart from others. Weâ ve been really impressed. He installed our plants last fall and itâ s been so fun to watch all the different colors bloom at different times of the year. He recently just finished this outdoor BBQ on our back patio and we are obsessed. Itâ s perfect! I would highly recommend."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

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. 

A retaining wall can only function as a fence if it’s high enough on all sides to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the pool. However, most retaining walls retain dirt, which means their purpose is not related to safety. There would need to be nothing on the other side of the wall for it to be considered a fence, but in that case, it wouldn’t retain anything and would cease to be a retaining wall.  

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.
