Customer Review

Monte Vlasin

Home Owner/Installer

Thanks for all your help this summer on getting my retaining wall done in Neosho. This is the first half of my project and I plan to finish next year on the second. I’ve had a lot of compliments on the block and colors. I’m really glad I used your block vs. anyone else’s. I added the flower box on the back side of the wall yesterday. Thanks again!
