"From the start they were very professional. When Steve the owner came for the estimate he was very knowledgeable and listened to what my wife and I wanted done. They removed all the old bricks and stone and did a great job with the concrete. We highly recommend them."

"GetItStoned, LLC is great. I have a stone rancher and ask them for a quote on the pointing the house, urgent stone repair work on the chimney and a small 18" high retaining wall. Very professional and communicated well with us along the life of the project (estimated start date, drop off of equipment and estimated finish date). All that plus they did a great job (no short cutting or inferior materials). I have them scheduled to stone face the front of the garage in December 2015. I highly recommend GetItStoned for any of your stone and brick work."

"We used Angie’s list to find a contractor to work on our main floor and second floor bathroom (and some other minor work). After several contractors visited our home and told us that they could not convert our main floor bathroom to a full (or quoted an excessive price for the work), we ultimately called CM Contracting after reviewing their ratings on Angie’s list and other sites. In our initial phone consultation, both the head contractor (Chris) and his son (Tyler, also a licensed contractor) were professional, prompt and timely with scheduling a visit. Within 48 hours, Chris and Tyler arrived to the home, accessed both bathrooms and discussed the scope of work required. Unlike other contractors who came up with a number on the spot, CM Contracting said they would research our building plans and get back to us with a number. After a week, we were contacted with a quote and request for a followup meeting. After meeting face to face to discuss the price, we agreed upon the work and a start date, and they acquired all permits needed for the scope of work. At the beginning of work, Tyler took incredible steps to ensure dust and debris would be clear from the main floor by taping paper down on the wood floors and vacuuming/sweeping at the end of the work day. Chris was in constant communication throughout the construction, regularly contacting us to give updates and discuss any minor change in the scope of work. He also did a great job managing his subcontractors, which resulted in a timely completion of the work. His electrician Ken did incredible work with wiring the bathroom and fans in the bedrooms. His plumber Don also did an incredible job removing a non-functioning water softener, plumbed two bathrooms, and installed additional control valves. Most importantly, everyone involved warrantied their work, which is a huge financial relief when choosing a contractor for your home. Overall, we were happy with the daily interactions we had with CM Contracting and their subcontractors and we are very happy with our experience."

"I hired Rovase to handle several large projects around my hilly property (just under 1 acre not far from Valley Forge Park). Robert, the Rovase owner, listened carefully when I described my landscaping preferences. I soon learned that his entire crew was listening closely, as well. 


I explained that I like a more natural looking landscape, rather than a carefully manicured design. I emphasized that "perfect" and "symmetry" don't work for me. For that reason I'd asked Robert to bring about 25 small boulders to my property to reinforce a retaining wall of boulders that was started but never properly finished by another well known professional (and inept) landscaper, years ago.


Robert's crew did much more then reinforce the old wall; they reconstructed it. They pulled out the original 12 or 15 boulders, put down heavy landscaping fabric, then replaced the original boulders and added the new ones. They extended the wall to the full length of the bank, thus preventing the continued erosion of soil that began immediately after the original waste-of-my-money landscaper installed his faulty version of a retaining wall. 


Rovase cleared out all of the weeds and volunteer saplings that had sprouted (due to at least five years of neglect) on the bank and throughout my property and planted about 30 ferns, shrubs, and flowering plants as I directed. They even took care to ensure that the best, fullest side of each planting faced out, which NO other landscaper ever did for me. 


I must admit that in their effort to clean things up, they removed a few small existing plantings that I did not intend to lose, but I partially fault myself because I didn't tell them to leave those items intact. The guys restored as many of those plants as they could, and I feel that they made up for that minor loss by going the extra mile on so many other parts of this enormous project. 


I asked Rovase to use stone instead of mulch to cover this steep bank. I opted for the extra cost of stone to preclude the mandatory annual mulch restoration. Besides that, I needed something more substantial than mulch to stop the perpetual erosion on that steep pitch. 


The team also dug a long trench across the back of my yard and filled it with more stone to channel and manage the runoff water coming from the home behind me, further uphill. This  will prevent further damage to the foundation of my detached garage, which has born the brunt of countless post-rainstorm rivers rushing through my backyard for the past several years, presumably due to an uphill neighbor's modified drainage. (Hmmm. . . thanks neighbor.)


I also asked Rovase to create a small path behind my mailbox so that I could access my mail without stepping on to my busy road. That required digging out a large section of the sloping bank leading down to my mailbox. I expected that to be a difficult excavation but they did it in very short order; before I knew it, my days of risking my life to get my mail was a thing of the past.


This short new mailbox path gave me evidence that the Rovase team really listened to my speech about preferring a natural, non-manicured look. One of the guys digging out the bank behind the mailbox came across several broad, flat stones under all of the earth he moved. He took the initiative to situate those stones in a line behind my mailbox, creating a lovely, natural looking path. 


He then called me to review his idea, saying he thought the stone might save me money AND suit my preference for imperfection better than the pavers I expected to buy for the path. I was (and still am) giddy over how perfectly his solution suits me. 


What really amazed me and sold me on Rovase? They listen AND care!!


They all worked hard, moving a LOT of stone and boulder material up my hill, but I didn't catch the slightest indication of complaint from anyone. Each fellow was smiling, cheerful, polite, and dedicated to customer satisfaction. It was truly an impressive group of guys. 


All in all, I am impressed with the quality of the work and the thoughtfulness of the workers from Rovase. I would and will hire them again for future landscaping needs. Also, because the company does other kinds of general contracting and building, I will solicit help from Rovase on other non-landscaping projects in the future.

"I can t speak highly enough of Louis and his sons! From the start, Louis was honest and realistic about the timeline for completion. Before he began working on our project (a brick veneer to cover up bricks that had been painted a hideous color), he would occasionally call to check in and keep us updated on the status of bricks we ordered and the end date of his current project. He said that he only takes on one project at a time, and that s absolutely true. He has been at my project every single day since they started. They haven t finished yet, but I m still writing this review because I trust they will continue this excellent work. They are hardworking, trustworthy, and honest. I have never had this great of an experience with any contractor, or anyone in this industry. Louis and his sons are third and fourth generation masons, so they have a genuine love and passion for their work. They combine their skills with real artistry. Louis proposed putting a row of smaller, half length bricks in (I think he called them header row bricks??) so the brick wall would look more authentic and industrial, which is the exact aesthetic we were going for! Every design choice he has made has been the right choice, and this is not the easiest, most straightforward brick wall to cover. I m honestly thrilled with the gorgeous work he s putting out. Not only that, but they clean up the worksite every day! I never even asked, they just did it on their own! Like, not just putting tools away in an orderly fashion, but sweeping/cleaning the floors and furniture. This allows me to live a normal life even though construction is being done in my kitchen. This tells you what good, honorable people they are. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Plus!!! They re great with my small dog who is home while they work and can be a bit nosey. My dog just loves them, and I think that s the biggest indicator of what great people they are. 10/10"

FAQs for retaining wall installation projects in East-Texas, 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.
