My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Cost

11 years ago
Hi I live in western NY and love the wall you created. I was wondering if you could give me a general perspective on what cost I should look at paying a mason by the square foot? Or some general guide. I am looking to replace a retaining wall that is approx 25 long by 4 feet high. Thank you so much for any you can share w/me.

    Thank you for reaching out! The best advice we can give is talk to a few masons before settling on one to do the job. Costs can vary, so make sure you are able to weigh apples to apples by making sure they are licensed, bonded, and insured! A reputable home builder may be able to point you in the right direction.
