To solve a persistent slope instability issue and prevent falling rocks from damaging the driveway, a gravity retaining wall was constructed using Redi-Rock® Ledgestone blocks. This solution provides both structural reinforcement and a natural stone appearance, making it ideal for steep terrain near homes or driveways.

The wall ranges in height from 3 to 15 feet and was built using 659 individual precast blocks, covering a total surface area of 3,789 square feet. The Ledgestone block face helps the structure blend seamlessly into the surrounding landscape, delivering both safety and curb appeal.

Project Highlights:

• Wall Type: Gravity retaining wall system
• Block Texture: Ledgestone natural stone finish
• Wall Height: 3 to 15 feet
• Total Block Count: 659
• Total Coverage Area: 3,789 sq ft
• Purpose: Slope stabilization, rockfall prevention, driveway protection

This type of wall is ideal for hillside properties, driveway protection, and erosion control—especially in areas where reinforcing the slope is critical but aesthetics also matter.
