Get matched with top retaining wall installation pros in Clear Brook, VA

"Dependable and quality work…look forward to using them again next year!"

"Excellent service and install all around! Vernon Jones was so responsive and professional, and they took great care navigating some challenges with a shared fence. His team was incredible! Complete dismantling of an old fence and install of a new one in one day! The product/fence is beautiful and the price much lower than area companies. Thank you, Vernon and team!"

"Home pro very knowledgeable and helpful when helping me decide what kind of floor I wanted to put in my kitchen. Worked at a very quick timely fashion. Would definitely recommend them for any home repair or remodel you would need."

"The provider showed up on time and prepared.  There were some issues with the internal wiring of my house (1930s construction) that complicated installation.  He informed me of my two options -- one was to have the fan installed, but it could not be controlled by the wall switch, or the other was to rewire the wall switch and the wiring to the fan to allow the fan to be controlled by the wall switch -- at a substantial cost.  I liked that he was honest with my about my options rather than merely stating it would cost me extra to install the fan, given the age/condition of the wiring.

"Crew arrived on Thursday as scheduled. Polite and courteous. Covered everything to limit the dust which there was a lot of. They cleaned up every night--and at the end. Three day project and the crew worked late on Sat to finish. Oscar came back on Tuesday to finish sealing the lampposts. Thorough and hard working. They also matched 30 year old mortar very closely. Definitely would use again.

"Excellent. Mr. Meneses and his brother were very courteous and efficient, and the work was done quickly. Mr. Meneses ensured that the bricks and mortar matched the other parts of the walls exactly, including the width of the mortar. He ensured that the drain was protected so that no debris went down that might result in a clog. He and his brother cleaned up everything before they left. I would definitely hire J. Stone Design again."

"It was awesome. First of all, he measured the space and I thought his price was really reasonable for the work we wanted done.  Then, he noticed some moisture issues and pointed them out to me. He told me that he wouldn't feel comfortable placing drywall in the basement if we didn't parge it first, and then he recommended a company to do that as well.  We aren't quite ready to completely rip up the basement exterior walls quite yet, but when we are, I will be calling on Suncrest builders again.

"Incredibly professional crew, led by Jose Raoul Trejo, and manager/owner, Dan Neufeld.  
Dan, my wife and I had several meetings to clarify exactly what was expected and drew sketches of the retaining wall to be certain that requirements were clear to to all.  Dan included Jose after our first meeting to discuss and recommend changes to the plan and ensure that our desires were clear and achievable.  The work was agreed upon to start 2-3 weeks later, on 20 May 13.  Dan notified Miss Utility (thank goodness!--turns out quite a bit of underground electric and cable were present where the work was scheduled and I was not aware of them) and the property was marked prior to the start of work. 
Jose and Hector, one of the regular crew, showed up promptly the morning of the 20th and did so every day.  They worked long hours for four straight days with few breaks, usually not quitting for the day until 6pm.  The walls were laid out and improved upon as construction proceeded.  All our initial requirements were met and many improvements and enhancements were made by Jose and Hector, who clearly took great pride in their work.  The work crew was extremely professional, responding to minor changes ("hmmm, I think I'd prefer that [just planted] bush be moved over there") cheerfully.  Cleanup was thorough and complete.
Jose clearly knew what he was doing with retaining walls.  He knew the county codes and worked to ensure things were done properly including drainage, deadmen anchors, rebarb supports, and proper materials.  I would like to emphasize an earlier statement, ?took great pride in their work?.  This came through clearly by Jose and Hector as they went to great efforts to more than simply meet the contractual requirements.  Jose encountered soft dirt, so he dug the wall in deeper.  Hector didn?t like the way some plants looked, so he moved them around to make the landscaping more appealing to the eye.  Additional materials were required, but no additional cost was passed on to me.  I truly felt like they were proud of the work they were doing and wanted my home to reflect their best efforts.
In retrospect, and considering our experience with other contractors, I would attribute the biggest reason for success to be clear identification of the requirements.  Laying these out clearly in drawings, marking the ground, and discussing each aspect thoroughly to be sure everyone was clear, resulted in our expectations being met or exceeded.
I recommend Mt Diablo without reservation.

"I would give the subcontractor who built and completed my deck an "A". The subcontractor and his team arrived each day promptly to the job each day.  If they had any feedback, they will leave a note.  They had ensured that the installed deck had completed the county inspection.   The subcontractor who had built the small patio, I would give him a B-.  There were some quality issues.
  Now, for the Powerhouse Remodeling Company, I would give them a "C-".  They were very attentive when they were consulting about the deck.  Once the financing agreement was approved and signed, this was the last time I heard from them.  I thought I would hear from the company owner to ensure I was happy with his company.  Unfortunately, no response from this company.

"We contacted Don at Home Services - VA for an estimate to put shelving in our garage, one coat closet and a small storage closet under the steps.  The storage closet also needed a light.  He responded promptly with a phone call, and was here the next day to look at the project and give us an estimate.  His estimate arrived via email within two days, and was the most reasonable of four estimates we received.  We accepted Don's estimate and scheduled the work for the following week. 

Don and a helper arrived at 9:00 AM as planned, and worked the entire day putting up the wire shelves around the entire circumference of our garage.  We had purchased the shelving ourselves; but additional was needed, and Don made the extra trip to pickup additional shelving and braces.  In addition to the garage shelving, Don installed additional wire shelving in our entry coat closet, as well as a small storage closet under the steps.  Getting the electricity to the light in the closet proved more of a challenge than originally thought, but Don handled the situation very professionally; and despite taking longer than expected, and making more holes in the wall than planned, Don completed the task perfectly.  He initally planned to complete all the work in one day, but the additional time to pickup more shelving and install the light, plus having to mud the drywall and have it dry in order to paint, made a second visit necessary.  He returned after the weekend to skim and paint the drywall to complete the project.  There was no additional charge for the extra time involved or for the trip to pickup additional items needed.  We paid for all parts purchased.

We are very happy with the results, and the large amount of additional storage we now have.  I know we will have other projects that come up, and we will definitely consider Don in the future.  We couldn't recommend him more highly.  He is definitly a wealth of information, and made several suggestions as the project progressed."
