"Excellent work and service throughout. It was a renovation project to remove old retaining wall timbers and put in block, pavers, and cap stones â along with new curbstone for another bed and a new parking area, and some new plantings. Big project and very complicated with both renovations and new work; really about 4 projects packaged together into a 3 week duration. Bryan and the crew were consistently creative, building a landing that tied in to multiple levels, and capping a couple smaller existing block walls to make everything tie together. Always willing to find a way to make it work, adjust to my preference, and respectful of our space."

"My wife and I have dealt with many contractors over the last 30 years and Mr. Hipp is, by far, the absolute best of the best. If you need any masonry worked performed, call Chuck Hipp or you are making a huge mistake! My wife and I are perfectionists and difficult to please and Mr. Hipp greatly exceeded our expectations. His work is nothing short of perfection, a rating of A++. We had issues with a brick veneer wall that arose from faulty construction. It was so badly damaged that Nationwide, our insurance company of 25 + years, refused to renew our homeowner’s insurance unless the wall was repaired with very short notice. My sister had masonry work performed by Mr. Hipp and we admired his superb craftsmanship. I contacted Mr. Hipp, explained our situation, and he came out late the same day on Saturday to assess the situation and provide us with his recommendation. We were very impressed with his knowledge and professionalism and we hired him. Due to the urgency of our situation, Mr. Hipp reprioritized his schedule and began work within a couple days, without a signed contract or any deposit! I contacted an engineer that works for Nationwide and shared with him Mr. Hipp’s proposal. The engineer informed me he was well aware of Mr. Hipp’s reputation and stated that whatever he did would greatly exceed the requirements of Nationwide. The new wall and surrounding area is absolute perfection. It blends in so well with the rest of the masonry work that you cannot tell a repair was performed. Mr. Hipp also repaired some sloppy masonry work performed by another local firm whom I won’t mention here which now looks exceptional, build us a beautiful new brick mailbox, and repaired our brick walkways and chimney. The flashing on our roof had to be repaired after the wall was built. I called a reputable roofing company who stated they were backed up 3-4 weeks. I informed Mr. Hipp and he called the same company and they repaired the roof the next day as a favor to him! Chuck Hipp is a man of integrity and the absolute best in his craft. He’s also a wonderful, caring person that you can trust explicitly. We have never met anyone quite like him."

"Work was done on time. The only problem was some confusion about the type of window we ordered. We thought we were ordering all slide windows, but some of them were crank windows - what they call "casement" windows. This type of window was never discussed by the salesman. The order form was hard to read, as it was an NCR copy and hand written. This was disappointing. Other than that, it went well. The windows look great and work well.

"Jake and his team were great. They installed as agreed and did so in a professional manner. The project took a couple of days but they held to their word and did everything well. Very customer focused and will work until you are happy. Highly recommend."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.  

Through proper drainage solutions and compacting the foundation soil.

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.

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.

Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.
