WHAT ARE
Concrete Blocks Retaining Walls?
Concrete block retaining walls are structures built using purpose-designed concrete units to hold back soil and manage changes in ground elevation. Depending on the wall system and site requirements, they can provide structural support while creating attractive garden borders, raised planting areas, terraces, and more usable outdoor living spaces.
Unlike conventional timber walls, concrete block retaining walls do not rot like wood. When the correct wall system is selected and installed with suitable foundations, drainage, and reinforcement where required, they can provide a durable, low-maintenance solution for many residential landscapes.

Drainage provisions and backfill are installed as required by the wall design and site conditions to help manage water behind the wall.
