What is a Block Retaining Wall?

[/ld_fancy_heading][vc_column_text]

A block retaining wall is a structure built using interlocking retaining wall blocks, typically made of concrete. These blocks are stacked to create a wall that holds back soil and prevents it from shifting or eroding. Concrete block retaining walls offer an attractive, functional, and durable solution for various landscaping challenges, from controlling slopes to creating terraced gardens or protecting your foundation.
