"Working with Yesner was fantastic and I would / will hire him again! The project was pouring a concrete slab in the basement of our old (1904) home. Like all old-house projects, this slab pour project had unique problems that would require someone with experience and a willingness to brainstorm in order to do it right. Yesner brought his experience, suggestions, and skills to the project and I'm very happy with the results. Additionally, he was dependable, easy to communicate with, and did not upsell his ideas. He came in with a reasonable bid (which can be hard to find in SF), adjusted costs for the change-orders without gouging, worked with me on the schedule, and was pleasant throughout the entire process. Yesner is the bomb and I wish him success in his business!"

"Ed did a great job from start to finish! Wish I had more work for him! He's very responsive and has a "If his customer's happy, he's happy" mentality! He shared pictures of prior work so we could see the type of work he did, and to give us ideas of what we might want to do. His experience showed when he organized the team, haul truck, equipment, time allotted, etc. Keep in mind that concrete work is very dusty and sometimes small pieces of concrete get splattered on walls and plants, so plan accordingly (part of the process and not a function of the work quality). Ed's very conscientious of ensuring the preparation, installation, and clean up are done properly with an eye for detail and pride in his work. He was also able to help with some ancillary projects-just ask and if he can do it, he's happy to make sure you're happy! He's easy to work and communicate with, and highly recommend him for your project!"

A well-built retaining wall can absolutely boost home value. By carving out level space, preventing erosion, and giving your yard a clean, layered look, you raise both curb appeal and usable square footage. Home appraisers estimate a 100% to 200% return on the money you spend on building a retaining wall, especially when you choose durable materials and a design that complements the house.
Material and craftsmanship dictate how long a retaining wall lasts. Expect five to 20 years from wood, 20 to 100 from metal, 50 to 100 from concrete, and up to 200 from stone. Choose quality materials, hire an experienced installer, and schedule routine maintenance, and you’ll squeeze the maximum life out of any wall.
Yes, retaining walls require a drainage system. Without proper drainage, water builds up behind the wall and can push it forward or crack the blocks. Most pros add gravel trenches, perforated pipes, and weep holes to move rainwater and groundwater away. This simple step relieves pressure, protects the foundation, and keeps the surrounding soil in place.
Most retaining walls go up in one to three weeks. Crews start by prepping and grading the site, then pour or set footings, stack the blocks, and finish with backfill and clean-up. Bad weather, complicated terrain, or permit holdups can stretch the schedule, but an experienced contractor will build slack into the timeline and keep you informed.
