An increasingly popular trend in landscape design is use of a retaining wall to maximize the space of your outdoor living area. Retaining walls can be built from a wide variety of materials, but one of the most durable choices to withstand the harsh New England winters are concrete pavers. Retaining walls built with concrete pavers are sturdy, require little maintenance, and will last for generations.
Retaining walls can function as garden dividers or keep unwanted materials from sliding into your yard. One of the great things about retaining walls is that they can vary in shape and size, therefore allowing the designer to cater the wall to the homeowner’s taste. Included below are several potential ways to design a retaining wall:
- Concave Curves
- Circular
- Straight line
- Zig Zag
- Convex Curves
