"We couldn't be happier with our work. It was a very fair price and the work was amazing. Our old retaining wall was rotting and now we have a beautiful stone retaining wall. We will definitely be using them again in the future for any projects."

"I can’t say enough good things about this company. I needed to get my stairs rebuilt as they were dangerous. They delivered. They were the fastest to get on the schedule, best price, and made very quick work of it. They also showed up when they said they would. Exceeded my expectations. Hire them. You will be pleased."

"Marathon took off the old shake shingles and installed new Certainteed shingles in less than a week.   They cleaned up their mess at the end of the day which was great since I was worried about nails in my tires.  Paul Stoural  has been the owner for over 17 years at Marathon in Belleuve.  We wouldn't have the roof if Paul hadn't worked with us for over a year trying to get USAA to put on a new roof due to hail damage and we had pictures of the hail.  Last year Marathon put on vinyl siding and new gutters with leaf guards on the gutters.  Marathon also took off our copper awning and put shingles on it.  Paul does a good job of explaining things and working with you."

"Derek showed up at the appointed time and date to discuss our landscaping needs.  We informed him of our budget and told him he had free reign to suggest  some interesting ideas...we were mainly interested in having something that would make our yard stand apart from other houses in the neighborhood.  As promised, within 2 weeks of his initial consultation, we received via email a .PDF of the design plan, including the names of the proposed flowers and shrubs.  We were provided with a web address of where we could see pictures of the plants, as many were unfamiliar to us.  In our excitement over the plan, we decided to add some additional items...landscape lighting to the front and some landscaping around a maple tree and bird bath in our backyard.  We asked that the old retaining wall stones be re-purposed for the backyard to save on costs.  Derek readily replied yes to our changes and submitted a revised bid.  We approved the final plans and set a date to begin work. There was a few days rain delay, but of course that was not their fault. The crew that dismantled the old retaining wall were careful with the stones and constructed a nice border around our tree and birdbath.  They completed this project with some hostas around the tree and some some day lilies between the tree and birdbath.  It was finished with some cocoa brown mulch.  The leftover stones  were neatly stacked against our fence by the back gate.  The front yard plants, accent boulders, new retaining wall and lighting ended up to be beautiful!  The crew that arrived each day were courteous, professional and cleaned up the driveway and steps at the end of each day.  The person in charge of the plantings shared tips on how to care for the plants.  There were 3 smaller plants that did not hold up well in transfer from the nursery, due to the heat.  They watered and fertilized everything and told us to watch them.  If they did not perk up, they would be replaced.  We are so pleased with the results and spend all of our free time on the front porch enjoying the new yard!  We highly recommend Penton and would certainly contract with them again!

"Excellent workmanship. Great attention to detail. Took the time to do the job right. Had some weather delays and waiting on material etc.. but always called and kept us informed. Fixed some other issues with front door and tuck pointing back wall that was not on original bid. Very fair upcharge for the work and was upfront about cost before work performed.

"Ed, with Arbor Hills, visited with us to discuss what our wishes were, developed a landscape that met those wishes and talked to us about our options with the trees we wanted.  The estimate was very affordable and we accepted his bid.  Ed was very easy to work with.  He was easy to contact and allowed us the opportunity to select the trees he was to plant.  Arbor Hills did an excellent job with the installation of the landscape, cleaned up after their job was done, and provided instructions on watering.  Any additional cost was fully explaned in the the email sent with the bill.  I will definately have Arbor Hills do any future landscaping!"

FAQs for retaining wall installation projects in Glenwood, IA

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.
