When most people think of retaining walls, the first thing that comes to mind are those very tall, monstrous block walls that can be seen along the freeway holding up an entire hillside. These large engineered retaining wall systems perform very well in these type complex projects.
The fact is segmental retaining wall block (SRW) is very versatile, and not just for commercial use. Residential landscape projects often have multiple uses for SRW. You can use larger block like Cornerstone and Pisa to level off a slope and expand your yard. You can utilize smaller blocks like Manorstone and Roman Stackstone to create flowerbeds and planter boxes. Retaining wall block can also be used to create stairs and borders throughout your landscape.
If your landscape project is on the smaller scale and you want to “do-it-yourself”, you can come into any of our branches and talk to a sales person about which SRW will work best for your situation.
We also encourage people to go to our website: www.mutualmaterials.com, to find a contractor that specializes in retaining wall design and installation. Our Preferred Contactors have experience and training in the proper use of SRW and can be a great resource for you.
Sincerely,
Rob Rosson
Residential Sales Manager
