Segmental Retaining Walls

Segmental retaining walls (SRWs) play an important role in a variety of landscape designs and plans. Providing a solution to both design and functional needs alike, segmental walls are a versatile and effective answer to many landscaping problems.

SRW blocks are used in a wide range of landscaping scenarios.  Creating multiple levels on a grassy landscape requires the use of these walls to retain soil, and prevent it from settling in a more natural slope.  The design and application of SRW blocks is as varied as it is complex, and can be seen on landscapes surrounding everything from residential homes to more intricate schemes seen at golf courses and parks.

Often used to accent other landscape features, like flower beds or gardens, segmental retaining walls are a great way to draw attention to another feature of your landscape design.  SRW block walls are also used to elevate grassy and landscaped areas surrounding driveways and walkways.  Also a great way to keep animals and intruders at bay, it is not uncommon to see segmental retaining walls surrounding an entire property.  The design-friendly nature of SRW blocks makes them the "go to" material for builders and contractors worldwide.

In addition to being a "one size fits all" solution for many landscape design needs, employing these walls is also becoming a much more attractive option.  With SRW blocks being more readily available and more easily manipulated than ever before, creating a wall to suit your needs, no matter what they may be, should be possible for any home.
