Frequently Asked Questions
What is a segmental retaining wall?
A segmental retaining wall uses manufactured concrete blocks (such as Allan Block, Versa-Lok, or Keystone) that interlock without mortar. They are engineered for structural performance and can include geogrid reinforcement for taller walls.
How tall can a concrete block retaining wall be?
Standard segmental walls reach 3–4 feet without reinforcement. With geogrid reinforcement and proper engineering, segmental walls can reach 20+ feet. We assess each project individually.
Are concrete walls less attractive than natural stone?
Modern concrete block systems offer realistic stone textures and a range of colors. For projects where aesthetics are the priority, we often recommend natural stone alternatives such as granite or fieldstone.
