They did two jobs for me last spring, and both worked out perfectly. They dug up a huge grove of bamboo stubs and relaid it with grass. They then redid a steep front slope/bank into terraces, and it came out very well. I called five others and no one would give me an estimate. Green Future gave it to me in very short order, and I could live with it.

Our timber retaining wall had deteriorated and we received a notice from the homeowners association that it needed to be repaired. The retaining wall is an L-shaped corner wall that is about 5 feet high at the corner (its tallest point) and about 3 feet high at both ends. The wall height varies because of the slope of the property. The wall stretches about 45 feet along the front and close to 30 feet along the side. Due to the deteriorating timbers and various damage that had accumulated over 35 years, we decided to replace the wall instead of having it repaired. Our new segmented block retaining wall was built by Green Future Construction (Laurel, MD) and we're very happy with it. The segmented block is called Alta Pro in a neutral beige/brown color and is made by Nicolock. Reassuringly, Green Future Construction is included as one of the verified contractors listed at the Nicolock web site. We worked with Joey to get an estimate for the replacement wall which included obtaining the engineering plans and necessary Montgomery County, MD permits, removing the old wall and vegetation, building the new wall with the necessary reinforcement grids, rerouting drainage from two gutter downspouts, and restoring the neighbors lawn which had to be accessed to replace the old wall (one side of the old wall was along the neighbor's property line). Joey was very knowledgeable and helpful in describing possible alternatives for the project. Of the 3 independent estimates that we obtained, Joey's was not only the most helpful, his was also the most reasonably priced. Due to uncooperative weather (winter, 2018-2019), there was a delay in building the wall but once construction began in mid-March, it was built quickly and efficiently. Thomas of Green Future Construction managed the construction details and was very good about explaining how the build would proceed and about giving us a daily progress report on the project once construction started. His extensive experience with retaining wall builds helped us to be comfortable with the extensive work involved. The workers were careful and worked hard every day. One piece of information for anyone replacing an old retaining wall, it appears that Montgomery County code has changed since the 1980's and a gravel backfill now is required behind retaining walls greater than around three feet high. The backfill for the original wall was just dirt. In summary, we are greatly satisfied with the retaining wall work performed by Green Future Construction and especially with Joey and Thomas both of whom we found to be incredibly helpful. Retaining wall plantings and adjacent landscaping were also completed for us as a separate project and were very nicely done.
