Get matched with top retaining wall installers in Damascus, MD

"The estimate was reasonable, the installation was completed in a day and per schedule, and the crew did an excellent job of cleaning up after the install. I am quite happy with the job, with only a minor issue with a couple of pieces of pressure treated lumber that were warped or visibly chipped. All in all a great experience."

"We hired XtraCare to rebuild a failing retaining wall along our driveway, repoint the masonry on another retaining wall, install a French drain behind the retaining wall that wasn’t rebuilt, and reconstruct a concrete walkway that had subsided over the years. We had requested quotes from several reputable contractors, and XtraCare submitted a very reasonable bid. While it was not the lowest one received, our initial meeting with Cleber convinced us that he had a much better sense of the myriad challenges posed by the project (e.g., difficult topography, drainage issues, potential permitting obstacles) than the other contractors did. The project manager, CJ, was always responsive and let us know what to expect at every stage of the project. The crew was unfailingly friendly and diligent and even completed some work that was outside the scope of the project (repointing some crumbling mortar on the porch adjacent to the new retaining wall they built). We are extremely pleased with the results! Even the building inspector complemented us on the excellent craftsmanship. And two weeks after they completed the job, the crew returned to clean and inspect the wall one more time. Finally, the office staff – Mari and Raquel – were exceedingly helpful and communicative, always keeping us apprised of what was happening on the project and what to expect next. We cannot recommend XtraCare highly enough. They truly went above and beyond, and we intend to use them for any future projects on our house."

"These guys do really great job, their prices are very reasonable and quality of services is always top notch. Landscaping is their specialty and nobody does it better. Try them once and you'll stay with them for years."

"We hired Diversified Contractors to install a new patio, walkway and retaining wall at our home during the summer of 2017. The job consisted of removing an existing concrete patio and then installing a new patio and a 60-foot walkway using Westchester pavers. In addition, a 25-foot retaining wall incorporating a new PVC drainage system was installed under an existing deck. The job required a significant amount of landscaping and regrading of our backyard. Diversified Contractors completed the work on schedule and the men who performed the installation were courteous, professional and excellent craftsmen. The manager/owner came by each day to review the progress of the work. He was always accessible to address our questions. We are extremely pleased with the service and could not have asked for a better contractor to perform the work. The quality and design of the resulting patio, walkway and retaining wall have exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Diversified Contractors to anyone who is considering having masonry work done at their home."

"very well and I have actually retained the company for monthly maintenance"

"Luis and his team did outstanding work. They were very neat and clean during the construction. They also are very honest about anything. They poured a large concrete patio with a retaining wall and helped fix a drainage issue we had. They also had to make sure the concrete could hold our swim spa. It looks great and I won't call anyone else in the future. Couldn't be happier with the results."

"They were amazing. I mean it really looks good. I think that if I paid less, it might not have looked quite as good. They were really professionals that knew what they were doing. The way they did the retaining wall just looks really really nice. I would give them higher than an A in some way. They were so nice. There were so many of them, and they worked so fast. They were experts. The salesman was also excellent because he took into part what I was trying to convey, and he designed it. He kept showing me, and we kept sort of tweaking it. You want that. They were punctual. They were scheduled for a week or so later, and I called and asked if they could come earlier because they had an opening in their schedule. They like to keep their crews working constantly, and I had really wanted it done as soon as possible. So I agreed. They came and they were right on time. They worked very hard. They always cleaned up after themselves. I mean so many leave a mess or leave a part of it undone. Plus, it just exceeded my expectations of how it looked in the end."

"Alves is a highly professional company in every respect. They totally renovated an old patio and stone wall and stone walkway plus constructed a new wall. The workmanship is superior, the customer service and communication perfect, the price extremely reasonable. The workers were very courteous and paid special attention to surrounding gardens and lawn to minimize any damage. I cannot say enough positive about this company. We are hiring them also to do landscaping work."

"HL Design responded quickly and the job got done in a timely manner. I would highly recommend them for other projects."

"We have a very unusual home; we have a large first floor condo in a multi story condo building.  To our great surprise after we bought this condo we discovered that the entire backyard of the building belongs to this unit.  We decided to have the backyard landscaped.  It happens to overlook a forest in Kenya, so it has an incredible view to start with.  We got hold of Divine Landscaping and the boss of the firm who is the chief designer named Jaime Pocnur is a brilliant designer.  It is fantastic and we knew that he knew a lot.  This year they had some garden tour where some people are invited to visit various homes.  Our home was nominated to be exquisite and it was exquisite.  Our backyard stood up being the star of the show of all the homes that were open to the public to visit.  Everybody said that ours has been a hidden gem because nobody knew we had this here.  The cost included the specially selected furniture's as well.  It was worth absolutely every penny.  One thing that I can tell you is the owner did not study or work with but he is the disciple of the greatest landscape designer of all times.  It was that background that made it possible for him to come back with this incredible design.  We were blessed to have this opportunity.  We use it for festivities all the time and in fact it happened few days after that home and garden show.  Our condo building happened to have its tenth anniversary celebration and so we visited the building to have that day's at our home.  Jamie just made me like it, he does not handle people work as well as he might but he's completely on up.  He's a good manager of his crews; he has a large crew of Central American stone masons that make these incredible things happen.  His father actually started the firm and he was even more into landscaping.  There have been other people in the community that have used this firm also and it's my impression that they all like him too."
