What’s Under Our Retaining Walls
What Size Wall Do You Need?
Footings
The next step in our Nassau County retaining wall installation process is digging the footings. Footing depth and type vary depending on the size and purpose of the wall. For larger or load-bearing retaining walls, our team typically digs footings up to 3 feet deep and mixes concrete on-site for maximum strength. By this stage, our experienced retaining wall contractors have already evaluated your property’s conditions to determine the proper specifications. The first course of wallstone is then set directly into the concrete footing for stability, with a portion of it buried below ground to provide additional support and prevent shifting over time.
The Process as We Build Upward
Once the footing is complete, our Nassau County retaining wall contractors begin stacking each course of wallstone, securely gluing one layer to the next for stability. As the wall is built upward, we backfill behind it with clean drainage rock and install drainage pipes with exit spouts at the appropriate heights to direct water away from the structure. Proper drainage is one of the most important factors in preventing wall failure, and our experienced installers take great care at this stage. A layer of filter fabric is also added behind the drainage rock to keep soil from seeping into the system, ensuring long-term strength and reliability.

Working with James Gio Kristina and evo plus his team was an awesome experience. As somone in the industry I was truly impressed and couldn’t believe the standard held by precision. Would recommend 10/10!! Super knowledgeable and worth every penny! felt better than family!! Julia NagleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just had my patio done and from start to finish everything went amazing. From the moment they came for an estimate, to the moment they finished, everything went smoothly. All the workers were professional and worked so fast. There were no hidden costs, no surprises. Kristina in the office keeps you informed step by step from the point they send the estimate, selecting the brick, start of the project and even throughout the project. She even sent photos of different color combinations as I was indecisive at first. Can't wait to enjoy my backyard with family and friends this summer. Will definitely be using them for future projects to come. Home projects can be stressful and feel like a chore between companies not showing up for estimates, hidden costs, poor workmanship, etc. That was not the case with James, Kristina and the rest of the crew. They made it feel like a breeze! James DonnellyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Affordable Patio is an amazing company! From the estimate, to the install and the clean up. We went online and more or less got a price on our own. We then scheduled an appointment with James, Kristina answered the phone and all of our questions, she’s was polite, knowledgeable and courteous! James came to give us an estimate and was able to figure out a way for us to get a fire pit! We always dreamed of a fire pit! When the install was getting done, the crew was courteous and walked us threw every step and cleaned up like we never had any work done! 5 ⭐️ I love them and recommend them to everyone! Julianne HoarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Kristina throughout this whole process. She was very attentive and very quick with responses and questions that I had. Joe and his crew did beautiful work on my patio. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a backyard transformation. larry TeknusTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Recently had a patio done 18x 35 in size . The crew that came was one of the best that I have seen . They all worked as a team . The lead guy joe was great , explained every detail that was going to happen . They worked together and completed the job in a day and a half . The bob cat did rip up some grass but they brought in top soil and leveled. the lawn to repair the damage . Clean up was just as good . The garbage was placed in bags , removed the dirt from the driveway . Filled the track marks with top soil . Did a great job and would use them again . The entire process was painless .
