"I hired Alan to replace a badly deteriorated garage floor and to install a parking pad next to the garage off an alley. When he came to the site to give the estimate he also pointed out some failed mortar joints and significant stair-step cracking along the rear wall. In all, he and his crew repaired multiple sections of old mortar and replaced a rusty lintel; removed the old concrete garage floor; prepared the garage and exterior parking pad, removing dirt and a tree; formed up the new 18x18 garage floor and 20x20 parking pad, with a 4' apron; and poured the new concrete with appropriate finishes. I am absolutely thrilled with the finished product. Alan and his crew were a delight to work with. He clearly communicated changes in plans to work around weather and set expectations on scheduling and how long it would be before the concrete would be ready to be parked on. The site was left clean and neat at the end of each day, and the substantial, unavoidable disruption of the alley was repaired at the end of each day to make it presentable and drivable. No damage was done to my property or neighboring properties. I expected the initial estimate to be significantly higher, yet Alan committed to it, and the only small changes were due to additional work I requested while they were there. I could not be happier with how this project came together, and Alan was a delight to work with. I have several other smaller projects planned over the next few years and hope I'll be able to use him for those, as well!"

"My husband and I were very pleased with the work that was done. We have received many compliments from our neighbors who either have already built a patio or are planning to have one built in their backyard.  The retaining wall and patio have  drawn the attention of passing cars stopping by to look at it.  We had considered 3 contractors from Angie's list with A ratings and we chose Worden Paving because we liked the owner Bill Worden's business manners during our first interview for an estimate.  Bill was very professional, knowledgeable, competent, and open to our comments, suggestions and lots of questions that he patiently answered regarding every detail we wanted to know about the work to be done.  Coming from a science and engineering background my husband and I wanted to make sure that the structures were free of defects, were sound, would not collapse years later and would have no drainage issues.  Since our property is in a community with an association, we had to request permission to have the patio and retaining wall constructed. This involved filling out a request describing the project with drawings and details on the types and colors of the stones that Bill helped us select.  He helped us fill out the request with all the information required and personally took it to the association management company to expedite the process. During the construction he was very mindful about not disturbing the surface of the lot not yet sold next to our house that was used for access to our backyard to bring and stage the materials.. At the end of the project the left over fill, gravel and grass sods were removed restoring the lot to its original condition and the silt skirt around the lot put back in place. He kept us informed on each step of the construction calling us to let us know when his crew would or would not be in for one reason or another. His crew was very professional and courteous. Bill  was also very open to changes we wanted to make from the original plan toward the end of the project such as adding 2 custom  made columns to the 2 entrances on the patio. A few days after the work was completed we noticed that the patio did not have enough polymeric sand in certain areas and we were concerned about water infiltration in these areas. Bill quickly responded to our concerns and personally came to add more sand to the patio,  leaving extra sand for us to use if we noticed any other gaps that. were not  filled. Overall Bill was a wonderful contractor, knowledgeable about his work, customer oriented and exceeded our expectations.  We highly recommend Worden Paving for your hardscaping and patio needs. We have already recommended it to our neighbors in our residential community.

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

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.

They prevent soil erosion, add flat space, and enhance property aesthetics.

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

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

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.
