"I had the pleasure of using PB Universe for a landscaping project at my home. Mr. Blunt and his team of workers did an excellent job! I was immediately impressed after speaking with Mr. Blunt by phone. He was very professional and treated me with respect as a customer. We went over the things that I wanted done which included trimming back an over growth of limbs and branches from a chain link fence, clearing away weeds that had grown up under my deck, clearing a flower bed of weeds and then planting new flowers, as well as mowing my lawn. Mr. Blunt checked back and forth with me to see if things were being done as I wanted. They did an excellent job! I would hire them again as well as recommend them to family and friends!"

"We are extremely impressed with our new deck and fence.  Working with Steve Edwards and his team was very easy and an overall great experience.  They were very responsive to all our needs and delivered a product that far exceeded our expectations. The quality and craftsmanship in their work speaks for itself!  I highly recommend Powerhouse and will definitely use them for future projects.
Thank you Powerhouse for a beautiful deck and fence!

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Even if you think you know how to build a retaining wall theoretically, doing the actual work is a completely different story. There are lots of nuances in building retaining walls, and the slightest oversight can compromise their integrity. Therefore, we recommend you hire a pro to build, repair, or replace retaining walls.

Generally, a railroad tie retaining wall consisting of a single line of ties should be between 3 and 4 feet tall—and the height often tops out at around 6 feet. You can go taller, but you may need additional footings and reinforcements, including a second layer of railroad ties to support the added weight of the soil it’s holding back.

The longevity of flood walls depends on how they were constructed, but most wood, gravel, and cement flood walls last 10 years. While aluminum flood walls may cost far more initially, they can be a good investment as they can last decades and will not be damaged by exposure to the elements.

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.
