Modular Retaining Wall
The advancement in modular retaining wall manufacturing allowed decorative retaining wall blocks to be available in several shapes, textures, and sizes. Together with it is the development of the lip lock system that allowed retaining wall blocks to be fastened without the use of mortars. Homeowners are not only given wider design choice, but they are also allowed to save on cost.
Modular retaining wall blocks are now precisely manufactured to achieve the right color, texture, and design for retaining walls. The precision manufacturing also made available blocks that can fit any forms of terrain and soil grade. In fact, more modular retaining wall blocks today holds larger volumes of soil in steeper slopes.
Before, if you want to make curvilinear or sophisticated retaining wall face, you'd have to contend using poured concrete because this is the only material flexible enough to conform to any shape. But, poured concrete doesn't look as classy as individual blocks. So you'd have to trade aesthetics for functionality. But with stronger and more flexible modular retaining wall blocks, design doesn't have to suffer for functionality.
Individual blocks can conform to the shape of the terrain without losing stability. Since it's manufactured to look precisely what you want, you also have control over the design. That's why modular retaining wall blocks are the number one choice for world class golf courses - the material mixed looks with purpose.
Individual blocks with lip lock system also allow homeowners to save on landscaping cost. You don't have to hire contractors to install a raised flower bed in your garden because the lip lock system allows building retaining walls without the use of mortar or rebar. Visit any home improvement store and you'll see tons of retaining wall block designs that are perfect in your garden.
These are just few of the many advantages of modular retaining wall blocks.
