“I heard about His Workmanship through a google search online and I’m so thankful that I did. Eric was quick to respond to my emails and got me on the schedule right away. I had a huge landscape project that ended up taking well over 100 hours of labor. Each of the crews showed up on time and worked very hard shoveling river rock. I would highly recommend His Workmanship.” – Candy

They worked hard and met our expectations. We will hire them again in the future
Very nice, respectful and efficient guys!!
Used His Workmanship for the first time to trim a dozen large shrubs that were very overgrown, plus some weeding and leaf pickup. Great communication setting up the appointment. The crew arrived on time, worked quickly and efficiently, and clarified my preferences throughout. Will use them again.
This company makes moving so much less stressful and the cost is extremely reasonable. With their help all the anxiety about the move was basically gone. Also I like the Christian values Everyone I talked to and worked with were full of kindness and patience and hard working.
Great guys, hard working and well worth it!
Hard working guys with great attitudes! I will use them again for future projects!
Great communication; skilled workmanship and reasonable cost.
The landscapers from His Workmanship did an outstanding job with my yard cleanup project. They were on time, friendly, and easy to work with. They worked very hard and completed all of the tasks I requested. They even offered suggestions that were a big improvement. This was my 3rd project with His Workmanship and my experience working with them has been great every time.
Very easy to book, crew arrived on time and finished quickly. Therein is the only niggle - minimum for 2 employees is 3 hrs @$100/hr. I was not able to book for a shorter period, even though I knew the job would not take two workers 3 hours. They finished in 1 hour, but I still paid for 3. Wish I had other tasks for them.
The communication was excellent and the retaining wall looks great!
The Jake did a great job. He was on time, did exactly what I wanted. I’m very happy and I would definitely have him back again.
Very hard workers. I will use them again.
Could not be more pleased with His Workmanship. It was super easy to schedule my project, with great availability. And the work was absolutely top-notch, performed by exceedingly pleasant and professional crew. So glad to have discovered this company.
Nice young men. Worked hard and did a good job with my yard projects.
I have already had positive comments from my neighbors and have given one referral. Brent and his team were very pleasant and professional. I would definitely recommend them for landscaping. Eric, the owner was also top notch by constantly communicating with us which seems to be a lost art with some contractors. My husband added the fine touches and our back yard us gorgeous!Teresa and Marvin Franklin
Taner and Bryant worked very hard in the 90°F+ temperature. Well done, gentlemen! Thank you very much!
I reached out to His Workmanship on a Wednesday and they got me on the books for Friday in the same week. Sam showed up early, was efficient, respectful and got more accomplished than I expected in the 6 hours that he was scheduled for. Excellent service and communication all around. I'm glad I stumbled across these guys.
Working with Eric and the crew was easy, fast, and enjoyable. The entire process from the initial contact, estimate, scheduling, to completion was quick and hassle free. The work exceeded expectations. The price was beyond fair. I highly recommend His Workmanship!
On time, courteous, and willing to follow our somewhat nebulous plan as we made it up.Would definitely hire again.
I have used this service twice now and been very pleased both times. It's easy to set up, reliable, and responsive. The guys who show up to do the work are the same way. They listen to what you say and do a great, thorough job. They may be a little on the pricey side, but with the market the way it is today, they're worth it!

Frequently Asked Questions

Prices for landscape retaining walls range from $20 – $50 per square foot or $50 – $70 per hour. Some retaining wall companies are willing to offer labor only services and have the client provide all the materials. For DIY enthusiasts, this would save the most money by keeping overhead costs down. Click here to learn more about retaining wall prices.
After you’ve marked the area where the retaining wall will be installed, you’ll need to dig a trench that’s 4-6 inches deep. The trench should be deep enough to bury half of your first course of blocks. In other words, the trench should be twice as wide as a single block, most of which are 2-3 inches. Once you’ve removed the dirt, you need to tamp down the remaining soil.
You should fill your trench with a 2-3 inch layer of paver base. Use a metal rake to ensure the gravel is evenly distributed within the trench. Every inch of gravel you lay should be compacted before laying more. This can be done with a hand tamper. Having a solid base will serve as a firm foundation and will keep your retaining wall from slowly leaning over as the years go by.
Once you’ve dug your trench and laid your paver base, you’ll need to use a level to ensure the gravel is flat before you start laying your retaining wall blocks. This is the most challenging part of the process, but it’s critical to be certain that the first layer is completely level. If not, the courses on top will gradually get more and more uneven. In that case, you’ll need to remove the pavers and start over from the bottom.
All reinforced walls that are over 4 feet tall should have a toe drain installed. If it’s smaller than 4 feet, then you can get away without having drainage. For proper drainage, the first foot (12 inches) of space behind the wall should be filled with crushed stone. This will prevent water from puddling in soil and cause it to flow down to your drain hole.
An innovative way to repair a tilted retaining wall is to use helical anchors. The upside to this method is that you won’t need to tear down and restack the blocks. However, you’d need to hire a specialist and it’ll be expensive. The most common approach is to remove the blocks, regrade and relevel the base, and reinstall the blocks row by row. While doing this, be sure to use a level on each row to ensure it’s flat.
You should ask the retaining wall contractor for an estimate on the total cost for your retaining wall. Be ready to explain why you want a retaining wall and what your budget is for the project. Ask the retaining wall company how long they’ve been in business and how far out they are scheduled. Google their company name and read some reviews.

My name is Mike and this is my eighth summer since joining the His Workmanship network. I’ve been good friends with the owner ever since our college days. Our relationship has grown over the years and I felt very respected throughout the whole process. I can work when I want to work and I can take off however many days I need to rest. I would highly recommend for college students to get connected with the team at His Workmanship.
