"Retaining Wall Systems is knowledgeable of the Unilock products, but if you expect to have your project completed, value work ethic, desire a contractor with integrity, or your project requires a precision build or knowledge of applicable building codes, Retaining Wall Systems is not the right company for you. The owner appears to be a hard worker who isnâ t afraid of getting his hands dirty on the jobsite or work with his team to develop know-how, but in our experience, he is immature in running a business, unsuccessful in managing customer expectation, unable to manage schedules, completing construction to a plan, or seeing a project through to completion. We hired Retaining Wall Systems for what we felt was a complex large job of installing a multi-level retaining wall, brick walk, and at the owners recommendation (Josh), replacing a wood deck porch with a brick solution to tie into the walk. It was a precise design, with specifications with little tolerance for error and taking into consideration tight clearances for property boundaries, existing grades, an existing driveway and the building material itself. Nothing completed was exactly as designed, some which might be expected with on the job compromises after things get started, but sections of the build are off by as much as 2 feet from the design, including work extending beyond the property line. Yes, it complements the house, and if you drive by, you probably do not notice the issues. But, since we were intimately involved with the design, and live here, we notice them. Other professionals that are familiar with hardscape work have noticed them. In addition to be gaslit by the owner on multiple occasions during the overall project, he abandoned the last piece of our job, leaving our front door unaccessible, our house at risk of water damage, and structural risk to a porch roof. We had to seek out an alternate contractor and solution to rescue the condition he left the job in, to include working with the local building inspector to ensure we remained compliant with building codes. Based on our experience, we cannot recommend working with Retaining Wall Systems."

The best time to install a driveway is from late spring to early fall. This period offers ideal conditions with warm days and cool nights that enable materials like asphalt and concrete to properly set. During this season, moderate temperatures enhance curing, reduce thermal stress, and minimize the risk of premature surface damage. These stable conditions ensure that your driveway is installed with optimal durability and longevity.
Maintaining your driveway requires consistent care, including annual sealing for concrete and periodic sealing for asphalt. Regular sealing prevents water penetration, reduces cracking, and protects the surface from weather-related damage. Following a scheduled maintenance routine not only retains the driveway’s attractive look but also extends its functional lifespan and structural integrity. Prompt repairs and systematic upkeep are essential for long-term durability.
Installing a driveway takes between one and three days for concrete and about two days for asphalt. This timeline reflects the standard duration required for material preparation, installation, and finishing processes. Additional features such as landscaping, custom designs, or complex layouts may extend the overall installation period. A well-coordinated project schedule by skilled professionals ensures high-quality results within the outlined timeframe.
A well-constructed driveway lasts for around 30 years. Consistent maintenance practices such as scheduled sealing, timely crack repairs, and routine inspections are crucial to achieving this longevity. Regular upkeep prevents water damage and surface deterioration while preserving the driveway’s structural integrity and visual appeal. Engaging in proactive maintenance ensures that the driveway remains safe, attractive, and durable over its lifespan.
