Rockeries and Retaining Walls
Everyone in our part of the world (and especially the Northwest) lives with some kind of slope. We level things out so we have some usuable space where perhaps space is a premium. How we hold back the soil varies as much as the type of materials that can be used for each project.
Most of the time, style and price will dictate what materials to choose, however in our region, rock and concrete are generally the preferred choices. They are abundant and move economical than typically cast in place concrete. Generally what to use is in the same context of the overall site and overall purpose.
