"I reached out to Cassella Landscaping to build a new retaining wall and patio in my back yard. I got estimates from six different companies before choosing Cassella. I will explain why I chose Cassella over the others, and why I am so glad I did. They were amazing! I did my research and read so many reviews. Cassella clearly had highly satisfied customers. Elijah, the owner, personally came out to talk to me about my project. From the start of my interaction with Elijah, I could tell this company was different. He listened to what I wanted done and my concerns about cost just like the other companies. But then what happened next was what made Elijah stand apart from the rest. I had made it clear that I was concerned about price and wanted options to consider how much of my project I could actually afford to do. He took the time to ask me questions to understand why I wanted this space, how I planned to use it, and which parts of the project were most important to me. And then he not only gave me options, he helped me refine my vision for the space to help me see what I could get done within my budget. He clearly cared enough to not just get the job, but to make sure I would be happy with the outcome. He was the only company who also told me that he would have one team working only on my project from start to finish. And he offered a warranty. The process of working with Elijah and his team was great all the way through. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner, and he communicated frequently. He had a team that was with my project from start to finish. They were hard workers, polite, and kept everything as clean as possible throughout. They cleaned up everything at the end, as well. They started when they said they would, and they completed the project right on schedule. The final project looks amazing. I couldn't be happier. I can't wait to get my new patio furniture so that we can start enjoying this new space when the weather is nice. My finished project is a retaining wall (3 feet tall by 40 feet wide) and a patio (12x24 feet) with beautiful pavers on both. The landscaping around the wall and patio was just what I wanted with river rock and plants. He transplanted the young trees that I wanted to keep and helped me pick out plants for the rest of the project. I had not imagined including lighting, but Elijah suggested it, and the lighting is beautiful. I also had a walkway installed that matches the paver patio style. It all looks so great, I am very happy with it. I highly recommend Cassella Landscaping. Elijah and his team were such a pleasure to work with and the finished project looks amazing."

"Although McCray was the cheapest, I was not satisfied with the job. I asked Kevin to come back to power wash the residue polymeric sand from the surface of the bricks. I will have to pay someone else to power wash the bricks laid by McCray."

"From the initial estimate request to the final installation, we had a fantastic experience with MC Fence! Communication, workmanship and quality of materials was stellar! Jarrod, our MC Fence contact, was professional & quick to respond to any questions we had. The installation crew installed our nearly 400 linear foot fence in a day like a well-oiled machine! In addition, the office staff was friendly & efficient. We couldn’t have asked for a more positive experience with MC Fence! We would highly recommend them!"

"The work Superior Landscaping performed was flawless. The patio looks amazing, the retaining walls with custom lighting are beautiful and everything Troy recommended for the job was spot on. The communication before and during the job was very clear and the project was started on time and finished on time, if not ahead of schedule. This is the second time we have hired Superior Landscaping. Both were largish projects and both came out perfect. I would not hesitate to recommend and will use Superior again in the future. They go above and beyond what is required!"

"Fernando was on time, professional, careful, and clean. Before starting the masonry repair, he and his assistant taped heavy paper to the floor to minimize, dust, dirt and damage to any surrounding areas. Fernando worked straight through the job until it was completed in one day. The job was done well and at a price well below other bids I received. Fernando brought his son, who is fluent in English, to help answer any questions I had about the job while it was going on. After the job was complete, I checked the work and the new wall section was straight and matched up with the old existing section of the retaining wall. I spent about 1/3 of the price of my highest bid I received. His bid was comparable with my lowest bid from another contractor."

"Crew arrived on Thursday as scheduled. Polite and courteous. Covered everything to limit the dust which there was a lot of. They cleaned up every night--and at the end. Three day project and the crew worked late on Sat to finish. Oscar came back on Tuesday to finish sealing the lampposts. Thorough and hard working. They also matched 30 year old mortar very closely. Definitely would use again.

"We needed a two level deck so that we could walk out the kitchen door onto it, but not allow it to block the windows in our basement. We also wanted the deck to follow the shape of the back of the house. Not a simple design! We knew we wanted a composite material after removing about fifty thousand splinters from various feet from the wooden deck at a previous house. (Not to mention what a pain taking care of wood is.) We laid out our needs to Power House and their representative drew up beautiful plans for us on the spot. He suggested a diamond inlay in both sections and integrated low voltage lighting which we had not considered. The price was fair and building commenced in a few weeks. (That was because of our schedule, not theirs.) The guys at Power House handled all the building line restriction issues, permits, etc., for us. As work progressed, we considered adding gates on the stairs and a trex enclosure around our air conditioning units. The owner advised against both. We had deliberately made our stairs rather wide, so he felt the weight of such large gates would cause them to sag, which would be unattractive at best and cause them to function poorly at worst. He also felt the cost of enclosing the air conditioning units was not worth the expense and suggested some other ideas we could handle on our own. It is truly extraordinary to work with people who could have easily taken our money, but were up front and honest with us instead. Unfortunately for them - well, what are ya gonna do - they began work in the middle of January. The earth was frozen solid, the weather was below freezing, it even snowed on them. However, the Power House guys were out there every day, all day. Even on the weekend! You couldn't meet a nicer bunch of guys either. They really knew their stuff and it seemed they had no problems at all. (Well, other than hacking away at the rock hard ground.) Fast forward and the deck is just gorgeous. The color is perfect for our backyard, the inlaid designs are lovely and the low voltage lighting produces exactly the right amount of light. We couldn't be happier with it!"

"It was awesome. First of all, he measured the space and I thought his price was really reasonable for the work we wanted done.  Then, he noticed some moisture issues and pointed them out to me. He told me that he wouldn't feel comfortable placing drywall in the basement if we didn't parge it first, and then he recommended a company to do that as well.  We aren't quite ready to completely rip up the basement exterior walls quite yet, but when we are, I will be calling on Suncrest builders again.

FAQs for retaining wall installation projects in Markham, VA

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.
