Combining Style and Functionality

Segmental retaining walls consist of modular concrete blocks that interlock with each other. These walls are for the purpose of holding back a sloping face of soil to provide a solid, vertical front. Without adequate retention, slopes can cave, slump or slide. Their unique construction allows for higher and steeper walls to be constructed with the ability to retain the force of lateral earth pressure created by the backfill soil. They can be installed in a wide variety of colors, sizes, and textures. At the same time, they can incorporate straight or curved lines with steps and corners. Retaining walls are ideal for not only slope support, but also for widening areas that would otherwise be unusable due to the natural slope of the land. They are often used for grade changes and for other functional reasons such as widening driveways, walkways, or creating more space in an outdoor area.
