"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."

"We are in the process of building a home in Powhatan, VA. We recently had the best professional experience with Bobby from Coastal Landscape Construction! This was not an easy job to clear about 2 acres, put in a long drive way and work in challenging cold and wet weather. Bobby is an up and coming young professional and knows exactly how to plan and achieve the end goal. Bobby was always on time, communicated daily and effectively, planned the land clearing perfectly and his prices are competitive but extremely reasonable. If you want or need any construction work completed right, you MUST use Bobby from Coastal Landscape Construction! Bobby earned a 10/10 perfect review from us and we will be using him again during our home building process! His business phone number is 804-441-1768, serving Powhatan, Midlothian and Richmond VA area."

"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.

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can use cinder blocks for many purposes, including retaining walls, foundations, garage walls, and fences. Building a cinder block retaining wall costs between $60 and $200 per linear foot, including materials and professional labor. For a 30-foot-long retaining wall, the cost ranges from $1,800 to $6,000.

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

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

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.

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.
