Types of Concrete Retaining Walls We Install

Concrete Sleeper Retaining Walls

These walls are highly popular for their strength and aesthetic flexibility. Concrete sleepers are robust, long-lasting, and can be designed to mimic different textures and colours, making them suitable for both residential and commercial projects.

Besser Block Retaining Walls

 Besser blocks are widely used because of their versatility and the structural integrity they provide. These blocks can be reinforced with steel and concrete, making them a solid choice for higher and more demanding retaining needs.

Keystone Vertica & Heron Retaining Walls

These are preferred for more significant, structural projects where precise alignment and tight vertical stacking are necessary. The interlocking concrete blocks used in Keystone systems provide excellent stability and strength, making them suitable for creating tall retaining walls in commercial and public works settings.
