This Redi-Rock project in Colfax, Washington showcases how smart design can solve practical problems while enhancing outdoor spaces. The homeowner needed a solution to divert spring runoff and snow melt that previously caused basement flooding. The answer: a freestanding Ledgestone wall system that combines function and form.
Designed as a water diversion barrier, the wall effectively redirects seasonal runoff away from the home. Beyond its utility, the wall also serves a dual purpose—functioning as a comfortable backyard bench, perfect for enjoying the outdoor space.
