Atlanta Residential Retaining Wall Built With Redi-Rock Commercial Wall Blocks

November 28, 2017 by retainingwallblog Leave a Comment

Building Retaining Walls That Last a Lifetime

Yashiv Construction dba McCullough landscaping is designing and building some of the finest  retaining walls in Atlanta and N. Georgia.

We recently used commercial Redi-Rock blocks to build a residential wall project in Atlanta.

Gravity Walls Save Valuable Space For Your Backyard Makeover

Because the incredible weight of these Redi-Rock commercial blocks, we conserved valuable sq. footage in this residential retaining wall using redi rockbackyard for our customer by not having to use any geo-grid anchor system. Because this retaining wall was over 25 feet tall, we would have been required to remove dirt ½ the distance behind the wall as the height of wall. That would have required us to install geo-grid behind the wall about 15 feet. This would’ve been a non-starter on this project because this residential retention wall is right on the property line. Which left us very few options.

Well, because code allowed us to build 13 courses high with the Redi-Rock blocks… we were able to provide this homeowner with a creative solution, which also became the focal point of their backyard renovation.

As shown in the video below, these blocks are really heavy, requiring the use of big machines. This loader was setting blocks that weighed 3290 lbs. and 2439 lbs.

Our highly trained crews have done several major roadside construction projects for the Georgia Dept. of Transportation. So we are well trained to take on such a task. But we also do many smaller residential walls designed and constructed with concrete modular retaining wall blocks.

Time For New Concrete Modular Block Retaining Wall?

If you have an old, rotted railroad tie wall that’s falling down from age and wood deterioration, then it’s time for a new modular block landscape wall, or even a Redi-Rock wall like the one in the video.

So, go ahead and call today to schedule your free initial consultation. We look forward to hearing from you. Call today at: 678-210-1020

Retaining Wall Reviews in Cumming and Suwanee GA

July 15, 2015 by retainingwallblog Leave a Comment

McCullough Landscaping has been busy! We’ve been focusing on customer satisfaction so that usually translates into happy customers… but also a full work load.

Our recent project in Cumming GA was very detailed and encompassed several different aspect of landscape design. The customer had a beautiful pool deck and outdoor living area. However it was mainly supported by a huge wood timber retention wall which stood over 15′ tall and spanned over 100′ in length. Well this timber wall was beginning to fail because of it’s age, and also because of the initial retaining wall design which didn’t take into account the pressure that would build over time from hydro-static pressure behind the wall.

So within a couple years this failing wood wall would have begun to effect the integrity of the entire pool deck and outdoor living area.

We were able to come in and completely prevent any further degradation of this area by coming up with an incredible landscape design which included at it’s focal point a new – modern modular block retaining wall. We were also able to find matching pool side stone pavers to tie into the existing paver patio. We added an addition 600 sq. ft. of useable pool deck to the area.

We also designed and installed a winding set of solid stone steps which finish the sloped end of the retaining wall with a flare that is absolutely awesome!

These stone steps lead to a nicely landscaped area which includes a grassy sod area, which then leads to a wooden bridge that crosses the creek to a stone and sand beach type area we created for their enjoyment.
