"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."

"Outdoor Advantage has done 2 jobs for us, one a small stone patio and the other a major front yard landscaping with digging out 2 large tree stumps, and then grading, planting, sod, and a small stone wall. They have just done a tremendous job in all respects, with timely service, great attention to detail, and coming back to fix some small things that made it perfect. Great job!! Will definitely use again, and recommend to all."

"Very thorough preparation--removal of prior driveway, substantial excavation to permit required base of crushed stone and sand, concrete footings around perimeter of driveway to stabilize edges of paver driveway. Very nice work setting pavers, setting trim pavers on edges, trimming pavers to fit where driveway wasn't square, and applying polymeric sand to seal joints."

"Kyle Hodges and his team did a great job removing old landscaping and preparing the space for new planting. They also repaired our brick front steps and porch, and installed new path lights to replace old, failing lighting. Kyle is easy to communicate with, and offered a lot of good ideas. We liked his design for new landscaping, and we look forward to moving ahead with the planting in the spring."

"Mr. and Mrs. Howe along with their team of professionals transformed the entire back yard of my Ellicott City townhouse from grass/weeds to a beautiful hardscape surface. Great quality, extremely efficient from start to finish, overall a wonderful experience. Will be reaching out to them again in the Spring to transform the front yard, I consider them landscaping/hardscaping, "Alchemists"."

"The only way to safely bring down this tree was to limb it down carefully while using a bucket truck in the driveway as the only means to get at the tree properly.  Additionally, care needed to be taken with removing the one trunk from directly over top the expensive light fixture on the lamp post, and in addition, avoiding damage to the garage dormer.
I had observed Ballard Enterprises in my neighborhood before and I knew they had the proper equipment and training to bring this tree down safely.
I was informed at the time of signing of the contract that the team was about two weeks out on their current schedule, weather depending. This was fine with me as I wasn't in any particular hurry as long as I got the tree down before winter storms. 
Roughly right at the two week mark, Tim called me the night before the work to let me know the crew was coming the next morning at 8:00 AM.  The crew showed up ahead of time in the morning the next day and promptly got to work.  The crew leader deftly manuevered the bucket truck around the trunks of the River Birch, quickly delimbing and guiding the limbs by rope to the ground by using a spin block attached to a high spot on a separate trunk.  The ground crew would gently lower the limbs down to the ground and piled them neatly in the driveway.  With only trunks of the tree left, the crew leader carefully removed sections of trunk, tying the sections off with rope. The ground crew waited until each section of the trunks were cut free and hanging clear before lowering them to the ground.  Once the tree was down, the crew used a claw machine to grasp all of the downed limbs and drag the limbs down the driveway to the road where the limbs were disposed of in the shredder attached to a truck.  The trunk sections were loaded onto a truck as well and all local debris was raked up and disposed of.  By the way, not one trunk, limb, or twig touched either the expensive light fixture on the lamp post, or the garage dormer.  To this I credit Tim's crew and the expert way they go about their business.  Having a crew with all the correct training and equipment is essential and Ballard Enterprises has that, and they are professional and safety conscious.  The stump grinding occurred about a week later, early on a Saturday morning one of Tim's crew showed up with a truck and the stump grinder in tow.  This person made quick work of the stump and was gone in probably about 30 to 45 minutes.
I can't say enough about the excellent Tree Service work that Ballard Enterprises performs, and I will definitely use them again.

FAQs for retaining wall installation projects in Elkridge, MD

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.
