One of the best ways to transform a backyard from boring to extraordinary is with the simple addition of a captivating wall or retaining wall system. Walls define spaces, add vertical interest, and can even serve to house necessary features, such as outdoor lighting. Here’s how to achieve the look of natural stone for your retaining walls in Dix Hills, NY with Rivercrest Wall from Unilock.
What is Rivercrest Wall?
Rivercrest Wall from Unilock offers a completely natural stacked flagstone appearance. The installation cost of Rivercrest Wall is typically lower than if you were to use natural stone, since Rivercrest Wall units are engineered to fit together precisely with a tongue-and-groove design, without the need for mortar. The product comes in a wide array of unit sizes, shapes, and textures. Whether you prefer straight lines and square corners or curved shapes that follow the contours of your property, Rivercrest Wall is ideal.
Unilock Reala Technology creates ultra-realistic textures that are cast from natural stone for a random and beautiful appearance that is hard to distinguish from natural stone.
To tie your retaining wall in with the rest of the landscape, Rivercrest Wall is the perfect complement to most Unilock paver products, such as Richcliff, to continue the flagstone aesthetic, or Umbriano, to add the authentic appearance of granite to your hardscape. Rivercrest Wall comes in two colors: Buff and Coastal Slate – both neutral colors that work exceptionally well with any design aesthetic.
Rivercrest Wall has tons of character and is just as gorgeous installed as part of a modern design theme with bold, straight lines, as it is in a rustic setting where walls and walkways meander gently through the landscape.
