"You need to hire Super Lopez right now! The team was amazing to work with and did everything possible to ensure the job was done right. When installing the sod there were some issues with old pipes and concrete in the ground that we were not aware of. Super Lopez went above and beyond to handled anything that came up and they were happy to do it! I could not be more impressed and happy with the work they did. Honestly, truly nice and genuine hard working people that will get the job done right for you."

"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."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

With foundation walls, the slab on grade and force at the top of the wall is resisted by flooring. With retaining walls, the force at the top of the wall is not resisted.

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. 

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.
