"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!"

"Tim and his crew always do a great job, they cut my yard whenever it needs to be done and it’s always done super quick and cleanly. They have the best rates and make sure that you are satisfied as a customer. He also put down plastic and mulch for my flower bed, and now it looks so much nicer. You won’t find a better quality and price for service ??."
Customer did not want  the gutter downspout flowing in their new bed. So we made it work
We can work around crazy angels too!
Had to dig out a root from a existing stump in the ground to level out the boarder. All hand dug and no machinery had to be used. Less machines is always more cost effective for our customers
We made the rock leaves even with their low profile deck.

Retaining Wall Installers questions, 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.

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.

Depending on who you hire to build a retaining wall, the average cost, including demolition and reconstruction, for a 50-foot wall that's 4 feet in height is between $7,000 and $24,000.

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional installation ensures structural integrity and durability for larger walls.

The lifespan of a retaining wall varies based on its material, installation quality, maintenance, and local climate, with an average range of 20 to 100 years. Retaining walls made from durable materials like concrete, stone, and brick generally last a minimum of 50 years. Concrete walls typically last between 50 and 100 years, while brick can last for over a century in ideal conditions. Timber retaining walls can last from 20 to 40 years, depending on the wood quality, and pressure-treated wood walls average around 30 years. It is important to note that a retaining wall can fail prematurely if it was poorly constructed, for example, with inefficient footings or without necessary rebar reinforcements.
