We specialise in building high quality retaining walls out of limestone blocks.
We at Busselton Retaining Walls want you to have the best and strongest retaining wall possible! Aside the various retaining wall designs and materials we offer, we also specialise in limestone block retaining walls. It is one of the most popular materials since it is very solid and can be used for long periods of time. It’s a structure designed to hold soil in a sloping area while also stabilising the ground and allowing it to be used for other structures, projects, or just a large backyard.
Do you know that limestone is created from the chemical reaction between water and calcium carbonate? It’s made up of at least 80% calcium carbonate and includes tiny pieces of bone from marine fossils. This is why it’s used for anything, from retaining walls and fences to stairways and garden beds, to any structure. Instead of having something ordinary, you could have a retaining wall made of limestone blocks that would completely transform your property and increase its value.
Why is Limestone Block a good retaining wall material?
This type of stone is popular as a construction material for a variety of reasons. Since it makes up around 10% of the sedimentary rocks exposed on the earth’s surface, it is pretty easy to mine. It’s also available in a range of colours and can be cut to a variety of finishes, making it very versatile. Many people are unaware that limestone is one of the most solid, affordable, and natural retaining wall construction materials. Also, many of the oldest human structures built in limestone are still intact today.
There are two types of Limestone Blocks:
A natural limestone that has been cut to the exact size and shape from a quarry.
A reconstituted limestone that has been made from crushed limestone and combined with other materials such as concrete aggregate.
Limestone block is extremely weather resistant, and although it may naturally erode over time, the corrosion will only be superficial and will not affect your home’s structural integrity. Two or three layers of limestone blocks can be stacked to construct a sturdy retaining wall and exceed the force of the soil behind the wall. Also, you need to consider these important things when constructing it: foundation, block size, backfill and anchoring system. The high strength of the blocks ensures not only the structures durability but also the safety of owners.
