I was taking bids for someone to demolish the pool and clear the land including the pool house, dead trees, and the pool house. I got about 5 bids fairly spread. However, I was sold because of Jeff and Annette's personalities. They showed up on a Harley, patiently took a look around the backyard, investigates with the city for permits and gave us a bid that was the lowest. Once the contract was signed, Jeff always showed up early, clean and respectful about the neighbors property. It was fun to see him demolish stuff and watch the passion with which he drove those CAT machines. All in all, I am thrilled with the work they did and would hire them in a heartbeat.

After devastating house fire, and a the city of Austin constantly threatening with fines, Adomas came in like a hero! He offered very competitive pricing, took care of all the permits, guided me as to what needed to be done and worked with me regarding the time the city was giving me to clean everything up. He was always available to answer any concerns and follow ups. I cannot even begging to explain how grateful I am for his guidance and professionalism. I would 100% recommend and work with him again in the future.

Mitch and Christian helped build a farm road (see photos), clear a homesite, cut a half mile of trail, remove invasive trees and clean up natives. Mitch knows how to manage uneven terrain and erosion control in central Texas and was able to walk me through a range of options. You'll find the upfront pricing from Hill Country Retaining Walls is on the higher end of peers. After a couple projects, I've found it ends up being worth it to go with an experienced and efficient crew (Mitch and Christian) who can handle the unexpected issues that come up in any project.

Expectations were set based on previous reviews. Mitch failed to meet those expectations. I was…read moreleft with the impression that he is not trustworthy to do a job right. If you go to craigslist you'll find numerous bobcat/skidsteer services available. They charge from $425 to $550 per day. For road base the cost varies based on driving distance. In my case the cost is about $25/ton. It's about 1.5 tons per yard of material. For these services you'll have to be very specific and supervise the work. But, in the end it is a time based service and you get what you pay for. For my job I agreed to pay Mitch significantly more than the above amounts, easily 2x the labor costs. Why would I do that? Well, I did not want to manage the job. I was looking for someone that knew what they were doing that I could trust to do the work right. I wanted the work done once. I did not want to be in a position of having to call someone else out in the near future to rework the work. Based on the reviews and his other business that does retaining walls I figured it was a safe bet to go with Mitch. I had two parts to my agreement with Mitch. Individually, these were well compensated. After the first part I pointed out deficiencies to Mitch as he asked for the first payment. He assured me he would be back out to get these remedied. After that meeting he said some things that made me suspect of the second part of the work not being done right. I asked for either assurance (guarantee) or slight delay (wait for rain to ensure placement accurate). Mitch's reaction was insightful of his true character, he became argumentative about outstanding work and refused to own his future work. He was being completely inflexible. He agreed to meet to review and discuss. That agreement only lasted until his first check cleared. Then he turned into a ghost. No text message replies and calls blocked straight to voice mail. In the end I'm lucky. I only ended up overpaying for half the job which he never finished completely. If I had allowed him to work, as he insisted, on the second part of the job that part would have ended up a complete waste of money as it is obvious his planned solution was wrong and I would have had to have the work completely redone.

He was up front with all cost considerations, including worst case scenario issues, so we knew the full best case and worst case range going in to the project (and not surprisingly, we came in somewhere in the middle, the additional costs were all associated to city requirements associated to the permit). The project timeline was great, they made incredible progress on all days where the weather cooperated, and he kept us informed of next steps every step of the way. I couldn't recommend Rusty highly enough. We talked to 4-5 contractors that were happy to do an estimate and let us figure everything else out, Rusty provided the above and beyond service that we absolutely had to have just to get the project started.
