ALL TRADES / RETAINING WALLS

Quotrr for retaining wall contractors

A wall bid is half structure and half drainage, and the cheap bid that skips the gravel and the geogrid is the one that leans in three years. Quotrr itemizes the parts the homeowner cannot see, so your number stands up next to it.

From slope walk to quote

You walk the grade, pull your measurements, and talk it into your phone at the truck. Quinn drafts the proposal. Here is what that sounds like on a segmental block wall.

YOUR VOICE NOTE, 40 SECONDS AT THE TRUCK

"Measured the slope at the Okafors on Ridgeline. Segmental block wall, call it 60 feet long, four feet exposed, so we are into geogrid every other course. Cut and base, 12 inches of compacted road base. Drain rock behind the full run with perforated pipe daylighting at the low corner. Cap units glued. Step the grade at both ends. If they want the second tier up top for planting, quote it as an option."

WHAT QUINN DRAFTS, BETTER TIER SHOWN
Excavation and compacted base, approx. 60 ln ft~$2,800
Segmental block wall, 60 ln ft at 4 ft exposed~$9,500
Geogrid reinforcement, alternating courses~$1,200
Drain rock and perforated pipe, daylighted~$1,100
Cap units, glued~$850

Drafted with the second planting tier as a live add-on and a note that walls at this height may need engineering, stated up front instead of mid-job. Numbers above are example placeholders. You set your own pricing and approve every line before it goes out.

What eats your evenings

The lean-in-three-years bid looks just like yours, minus $4,000.

Their quote says wall. Yours says base, grid, drainage, wall. On a one-line bid nobody can tell the difference until the cheap one moves.

KILLED BY: ITEMIZED LINES THAT SHOW THE BURIED WORK THE CHEAP BID SKIPPED.
Wall math rides in your head between site walks.

Sixty feet at four exposed, grid every other course, base depth. Two more bids later, that wall is blurring into the last one.

KILLED BY: VOICE-NOTE QUOTING. TALK IT IN AT THE TRUCK AND IT IS CAPTURED.
Your wall waits on someone else's landscape plan.

The wall is phase one of a yard project the homeowner is still dreaming about. The quote goes stale while they pick plants.

KILLED BY: SEVEN-TOUCH FOLLOW-UP THAT RUNS ITSELF AND PINGS YOU ON EVERY OPEN.
