Retainer Wall Options
Flush Installation
A flush or ‘in-ground’ surfacing is by far the most elegant and safe solution, and eliminates all tripping hazards by providing a smooth transition from adjacent surfaces and the safety surface. A flush installation provides a smooth transition from grass to surfacing. Unless your budgetary requirements dictate an alternate retainer wall, a flush instalation will be proposed by your ACTIVE Representative.
Poly Wall
Using polywall for your surfacing retainer wall is an economical solution, however it will require a well drained safety surface and occasional re-setting of support stakes.
This retainer wall solution is a stronger and therefore more permanent retainer solution. This system can be used especially in areas of sloping landscaping, as the retainer wall can be built up to accomodate large slopes. Built with arsenic-free rot resistent wood.
