The Challenge

To implement four attractive retaining walls of varying heights, whilst overcoming challenging site conditions and restrictions faced by the previous pre-cast L shaped wall design.

Our Solution

To overcome the proximity of the trees behind the wall, the slope of the site and the curve of the wall, we completely re-designed the previous L shaped walls into shorter stepped and curved Georoc walls.

The retaining walls which measure up to 3.6m high, 3m wide and cover 300 sq metres were manufactured locally at our Geocast factory, eliminating the requirement of a bricklayer or any supply chain issues.

The Results

We overcame the challenging site conditions to provide sustainable, cost-effective and attractive retaining wall solutions for the client. We have currently designed and installed two out of the four requested Geowalls in a slate grey textured finish, to blend into the surrounding landscape and provide a close colour to adjacent buildings.

Scope of Work

Four slate grey, textured GeoRoc retaining walls totalling 300 square meters.

Re-design from pre-cast L shaped walls to GeoRoc retaining walls.
