Leon Williams of LJ Will Build 4 U, chose the Allan Block prodcut line because it offered a solution for all the onsite upgrades in one product line.
With matching colors in both the Courtyard and Retaining wall Blocks, it offered the color consistency that the project owner was looking for.

Using the AB Ashlar block in our Walnut Blend color, he was able to create a design that fit the bill.

The hillside had erosion problems in heavy rains and was not very hospitable to plants.
Terracing was a good way of adding plantable space, and breaking up the wall because of the height.

A.M Landshaper is wrapping up the project. All of the Allan Block Walls are completed, pavers are installed, concrete is poured, plants and vegetation are placed and the rock mulch is being installed.

Hayden Lake Cabin
The wall was originally specified as a concrete poured in place retaining wall, but the owner wanted something more than just a plain gray finish. Not to mention that the cement shortage was beginning to affect our region.
The AB Classics are a great solution. Not only was the overall cost of the project less expensive than the poured in place option, it offered the owner a more aesthetically pleasing wall.
The views overlooking Hayden Lake are spectacular and from the lake the house looks great too!

This project required the retaining wall to be built and the ground back filled and compacted before the construction of the house could take place.
Jeff Cornish with L-C Lawn & Landscape came up with the design for using a different textured retaining wall block on top of the Allan Block wall to create a unique look.

More pictures of the AB Courtyard project. The Allan Block Retaining Wall was built first.
Then the patio project.
At that point they realized the need to define and enclose the patio area due to the roadway below the property.

Jeff used the AB Classic in Tan with Shadow Blend for accent stripes in the wall.
The wall was built in front of the basement walls. It gave them a little extra yard at the main floor level.
The Allan Block can also be used to create stairways!

Creating step ups as the grade changed is always a challange. But for Rick, a Certified Allan Block Installer, it was the right solution for the project.
Creating steps in the wall takes patience. Pride in their work is what makes a great set of stairs.

The structural Allan Block wall was built to replace a failing landscape wall on the homeowners site. The original block were way undersized and did not provide enough mass to hold up the pressures of the hillside.
The 3 terrace Allan Block design was implemented to break up almost 15 feet of grade change from the top to the bottom. The use of geogrid was required to create a composite mass able to withstand the pressure loads from the hillside.
It allowed the homeowner to later put a garden area in at the 1st terrace and plants & flowers in the 2nd.

Mark used the Allan Block Classic with a 6 degree setback to create the needed space. The Shadow Blend color is a great accent to the plants & gravel mulch.

Rick used our AB Classic 6 degree set back in our Shadow Blend color to replace the rotted timbers.
He used lengths of geogrid behind the wall to reinforce the soil as he built up the wall.

They had used the Redrock Blend before and thought it would work well with the Cultured Stone color they had chosen for the house.

Jason & Mat with Valley Landscaping had the task of replacing a dilapidated metal bridge and concrete pathway that meandered from the hotel, looped down by the pool area, then out to the Centenial Trail pathway at Riverfront Park.
They used the Allan Block Classic Tan to create a double sided retained area to create the new paver pathway in place of the old bridgeway. They had new hand rails manufactured and grouted them through the top caps down into the top 3 rows of the Allan Block to create stability.
To soften the new pathway, they created little planter areas in front of the new wall, which turned out to be a great addition to the project.

This was both a public and privatly funded project so installed cost was very important. Anderson's Masonry Hearth & Home quoted the Allan Block product against other comparable systems and the Allan Block offered a high quality engineered product as well as a price that helped save money for the project.
