How to Install a Retaining Wall

Redi-Rock installs like a one-ton Lego, and who doesn’t love playing with Legos? Each massive, one-ton block has a knob and groove design that makes retaining walls fast and easy to install. All that’s required is a small excavator and a 1-2 person crew. With 5.75 sq. ft. of face per block, walls go up fast—plus, the design of the blocks allows for curved walls, 90 degree corners and much more to make a custom wall simple to install.

With fork slots for easy loading and unloading during retaining wall construction, you'll be glad you chose Redi-Rock for your project!
