Block

Structural landscaping can add huge value and appeal to your home, and concrete block is one of the most economical landscaping materials. Concrete block has been used for residential and commercial landscaping for years with more options and features becoming available. Our selection of retaining wall block provides many choices of styles, colors, shapes and sizes that will give your patio or landscaping added appeal. Many styles offer multiple sizes and edges, allowing you to create natural-looking or geometric patterns with the benefits of a man-made product. Update or create a beautiful patio space with our selection of patio block and outdoor living masonry projects. Your driveway and pathways will undergo a complete makeover when you update them with block from our wide selection of pavers, steps and edgers. No matter which task you take on, we also carry all of the landscaping materials you will need for the project. The simple addition of a concrete mailbox or block fire pit can make an ordinary landscaping job look extraordinary. Our project materials list page has plenty of great ideas to transform your home.

The uniform size of concrete block makes installation fast and simple, and you won't waste time trying to find differently shaped pieces that will fit, like you would with stone. Traditional stone walls can be difficult and time-consuming, since the placement of the stone and mortaring require honed skills to get a professional-looking result. Concrete block is easy to install alone or with concrete, cement & masonry for added stability for your project. When installed correctly, landscaping built with concrete block can last for decades with only minimal upkeep required. If maintenance is needed, we offer a wide variety of concrete mixes and repair products to keep your landscape structures looking good as new. To add the finishing touch to your project, we also offer gravel and sand. Our selection of construction & concrete block will also help you create walls, foundation slabs and more.
