  • Stairs:  Integrate some steps in your wall for easy access between terraces of any wall built with 6” manufactured block or equivalent size of natural stone.
  • Quality Construction:  It is not what you see, it is what you don’t see that is important when constructing a retaining wall.   All larger walls (6” block) are set on base of 3-4 in. of gravel with at least half a block being buried.   For taller walls (where application deems necessary) we back-fill with clean gravel to minimize hydraulic pressure pushing against the wall.  Smaller walls (4” block) are also set with at least half the block being buried and a leveling material is used when applicable.  Quality must start at the base.
