"My husband and I are commercial and institutional architects, and we can be difficult clients for residential contractors because we are extremely specific. Andy is one of the rare people who not only meets that standard, but consistently exceeds it. Andy is genuinely a good person. He is honest, fair, and deeply cares about the quality of his work. His communication is effortless. He listens, he asks the right questions, and he makes sure the work is done exactly the way you want it. If an issue comes up, he fixes it without hesitation. If changes happen, he handles them with grace and fairness. There is absolutely no ego, no pushback, just a commitment to doing things the right way. We first hired Andy in 2021 to build architectural block retaining walls, stairs, and a large patio with pavers. The work was beautiful, durable, and incredibly well crafted. In 2025, we brought him back again to build brick pathways and a new stone retaining wall. Once again, flawless. His craftsmansh"

"Unsatisfied with final results of retaining wall project. Documentation to support my experience. When asked why his quote was lower than others, owner reply the larger companies use blocks from quarry. Ok with blocks from Lowes, 2 days completion, but still expected quality work. Subcontractors excellent job on demo and work on front wall. 3rd day, owner solely completed side wall to driveway. Contractors should have finished the job. I was not ok with the side wall design being lower than the lawn. Owner Stephen Q. was verbal aggressive when I asked him to fix it. Neighbors came out. He threaten to remove the wall. Owner explain- property on slope, pay him. Cashiers checks written to owner and not in company's name ($1,900 and $2,200) per owner's request. To fix the misaligned side wall cost est. $2,200 per another contractor. Waiting for est. to fix lawn. Photos taken at a distance are deceiving. Must review up close. Photos attached. Older woman just trying to update my home."

"I am extremely happy with the re-pointing of my front porch steps which were 9 feet wide four steps high with a landing. I wanted to keep the same look of our 150+ year-old home and the job was done exactly how I wanted to retain the integrity of the house. Also, Joe and Chris always kept appointments on time and constantly kept me in the loop to assure I was happy with the progress. Definitely would recommend them to anyone else who is looking to have the bricks re-pointed."

FAQs for retaining wall installation projects in Bala Cynwyd, PA

With proper design and construction, stone retaining walls can last anywhere from 50 to 200 years. They're built to withstand soil pressure and environmental factors, especially when reinforced with geogrid and constructed on solid foundations. Using quality materials and skilled professionals ensures your retaining wall will be durable for decades.

You can choose between natural stone and stone veneer for your project. Natural stone offers timeless durability and character, while stone veneer provides a sleek, modern look and is lighter to install. Both options are strong and provide good drainage. Consider your budget, maintenance preferences, and design goals to decide which material is best for your wall.

Choosing the right masonry professional is key to ensuring your stone wall stands the test of time. Be sure to check that the contractor has valid licenses and certifications, and a strong track record of quality work. Look at their past projects and read customer reviews. Meeting them in person and getting detailed quotes will help you make an informed decision. Taking these steps will help you find an expert who can build a sturdy and beautiful wall for your home.
