"Dreamscape Designers contacted us after a garden show in Va Beach. Dan came out, talked about what we liked, didn't like, and gave us a quote shortly after his visit. His crew removed a few bushes in the front of our house, planted new ones and mulched. They were very courteous. A few weeks after the job was complete, we let them know a bush was looking pretty sad. They replaced it without hesitation. Our curb appeal is beautiful now."

"Kyle and Casey are extremely competent craftsmen. Project exceeded expectations in all respects and would absolutely hire again. The details, including the portion of structure you can't see when finished, were "over engineered" for durability. Nicest pool deck in Sandbridge beach!"

"I am greatly surprised by the remodel of my bathroom, the amount of efficiency this team has is incredible. They finished my bathroom in 3 weeks and did absolutely AMAZING, and my wife was very meticulous about having dotted tiles on the shower wall, and she was very satisfied with the results of the bathroom as well. Happy wife, happy life."

"Not as good as I would have hoped. He told me how many square feet of tile I needed to purchase. I brought. maybe, nine samples of tiles that I liked because with the price I didn't know what they were willing to work with. Sometimes it's more expensive and more difficult to work with another. I wanted to give them the option saying we don't want to use this because or it's going to cost you more to use this. So I showed the tile to their workman who came out. He said we use a lot of this 1 by 1. I said this is an old house, the floor is not going to be perfectly smooth and having done insurance for years I promise you instead of 8  by 8 tiles the 2 by 2 is going to be more forgiving on an uneven surface is it alright if we used this? He said that's mighty expensive, They are not paying for it so, do you know how to put it down? And he said he knew how to put it down, I asked it he was sure? He said yes, this is what I purchased. I came back and he had gotten all the tile up and he said my sub floor on half the room needs to be replaced and that's not in the price. I said ok what's the price to replace the sub floor and they gave me a price that was a little high. I said that for replacing a sub floor on half and he said that's for the whole room, so if you don't have to replace the whole thing then why don't you adjust that, and they adjusted that price. We agreed I paid them the extra money, and I said they could put my tile down.  He put the tile down, but it was not done in a good professional manner -- you know when you're really finished it looks like a finished room and it was not. I have a floor to ceiling mirror at one end of my bathroom which I pointed out to him. I asked it he realized I have this floor to ceiling mirror. He said he knew how to go about it. I stopped speaking because I thought he understood with a floor to ceiling mirror you have to either measure for it or start at the mirror so you don't end up with tile pieces abutting the mirror and then having it look tacky. Well, that's exactly what he did. Also it was not evenly cut along the wall. Not a problem. In that case you either take up the mold end and put it back down or put a shoe down to cover where at least it looked finished. None of that was done. The thing that got me, most of all was he left and didn't say anything. So I called his office and asked if he's finished. He said he remembered it wasn't finished completely. He said he had run out of tiles. I asked why didn't he tell me ran out of tile. By the way I bought the amount of tile he told me I needed. I will happily go and get some more. My whole thing is communicate with me you don't just run out of tile and leave. You tell me that I'm out of tile and I asked when is he coming back? He came back the next day or two whatever the case was and finished installing that tile and left again without saying anything. So I wondered if he was finished. It doesn't look finished to me so I called they said he was done. I said this is not acceptable, it doesn't look finished at all and I recounted all the things that went wrong. The guy in the background said he did not know what they want. They told me to take some pictures of it. I'm not a photographer and I don't think what I am talking about is going to really read in pictures, someone needs to come and at it. So the owner of the company finally agreed to come and look at it and when he looked at it he said "oh! I see," what can we do?" And I said if you want to put down a shoe mold in to finish up all these edges there's places where tiles not lining up a couple of them are going to have to come up and put back down. He hasn't done anything and the floor looks totally unfinished, it's just some tile in the middle of the floor and a huge gap around the edges. I point out all these things he said he would send someone out to finish it. They sent the same guy who was basically baffled about it. He said this looked fine to him. So now I thought I had to tell him what to do."

"The brick foundation had settled at a corner of my house causing mortar to break and a few bricks were broken.  The crack was about 3/4 inch wide.  Five holes were dug about 2 feet deep and jacks were installed to jack the brick siding back  in place.  Once the brick siding was in place cement was injected to hold the brick in place.  The broken bricks were replaced. The lintel over the garage door, door and window were replaced.  The mortar that was damaged on the house was removed and re-pointed.  The Hipp Masonry crew were polite.  They did excellent work.  The crew cleaned up at the end of each day and after the job was completed.

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your hardscaping is adding value to your home.

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.

Poured concrete is often the cheapest material for a retaining wall, costing around $6 to $8 per square foot. Other budget-friendly options include vinyl and landscaping timbers, which range from $10 to $15 per square foot; landscaping timbers are particularly well-suited for DIY projects. Untreated timber and railroad ties are a step up in price, starting at $15 to $25 per square foot. Natural stones can also be a cost-effective choice if you can source them from your own property, but they can be expensive to purchase. High-end materials like steel are typically the most expensive but offer superior durability and aesthetics.

Small retaining walls still require a foundation of some kind, typically a concrete footing. This helps to ensure the wall is structurally sound and prevents the ground from shifting over time, especially during those winter freeze/thaw cycles. The footing helps spread the weight of the wall and the load it carries over a larger area of the ground, thus assisting with stability. This is true of small retaining walls, larger rock garden walls, and the like. 

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.
