Building Raised Garden Beds With Landscape Block in Rochester

Landscape blocks can give you the distinguished look you want in a raised herb, vegetable, or flower garden. Landscape block is an excellent choice for a raised garden since it helps retain heat from the sun and makes the soil warmer during the day, which produces healthier vegetation.

Some people also use blocks to create an edge around trees or other landscaping. Landscape blocks can be used to create curved walls, straight walls, or other preferred styles. Some projects using blocks may not require sealing, which does allow better drainage for the soil.

Whatever your project, Smith’s Gravel Pit has options for landscaping blocks for your residential or commercial project.

Building Retaining Walls or Other Walls With Landscape Block in Rochester

Many people prefer landscape blocks for use in retaining walls. They are sturdy and work well with sealing products and other products needed to create a functional retaining wall. If you want to build a retaining wall, it is important to use a reliable guide for proper steps or work with a professional.

You may also want to create decorative walls on your property. Perhaps you want to build a short wall around a small fishpond or around a prominent lighting feature. Another type of project that people use landscape blocks to create small walls for is an outdoor fire pit. If you want to create a larger wall and enclosure, you can also build an outdoor fireplace. You can lay the blocks in the ground to create a path or lay them side by side to create an entire patio or a wider walkway. Additionally, you can use them along an outdoor garden for edging.
