Product is fantastic but the delivery service was poor. Dumping a heavy pallet on the pavement is not an acceptable fulfillment solution. When ordering on line one is only told that this might occur AFTER one has placed one's order. As it happens we had builders in the house at the time who offered... Read More.

Why not just use railway sleepers, stone or boards?


    1. - Sleepers need a foundation or footing to sit on, concrete is messy, hard work and expensive. 

    1. - They are also incredibly heavy and difficult to work with, and often expensive to buy. Its also difficult t cut them to your exact angles or sizes without heavy landscaping machinery.

    1. - Stone or blockwork is expensive and requires mortar and foundations, as well as the skills to build with it successfully. WoodBlocX is also comparably cheaper than bricks.

RETAINING WALL GALLERY

WoodBlocX Retaining walls are:

DURABLE

All wooden components are made from high-quality timber. We do not use the heart of the tree, which is weaker. The wood is pressure-treated and because WoodBlocX are pre-drilled, the treatment penetrates almost 100% of the wood. WoodBlocX will last at least 15 years if installed using our guidelines, but they are expected to last even longer.

STRONG

WoodBlocX has more strength than masonry in some situations because it can withstand tension forces as well as compression. It will not crack with ground movement or frost. WoodBlocX is put together with many joints and each dowel can withstand 0.9 tonnes of sheer force. The structure forms a single solid unit that will not easily distort like many other flimsy timber products on the market.

EASY

WoodBlocX are so light even a child could help with construction. There is no heavy lifting involved in a WoodBlocX build, and all the parts fit into an average-sized car. There’s also no need for foundations or cement, and they can be sited on any surface – soil, grass, tarmac, concrete, paving – including slopes.

ATTRACTIVE

The rough-sawn wood is attractive in itself, and needs no varnishing. It will naturally fade to a grey over the years. If you want to, you could also paint them. Any water-based exterior paint will do it, so choose a colour you like which will fit in with the rest of your garden.

SIMPLE

No technical skills are needed to build a WoodBlocX structure. We will supply you with specific instructions for your build, and general assembly instructions. There’s also a video to help you. The BlocX go together quickly and easily, with no need for power tools or specialist equipment.

SUSTAINABLE AND ORGANIC

We source the timber from sustainably-managed forests, and our treatment process involves no chemicals that might leach from the wood, unlike the heavily treated sleepers. The dowels are all made from recycled plastic too, and we continue to work hard to reduce our carbon footprint in everything that we do.

Free Garden Design Service

A new garden design – or a new determination to transform the garden – can be a daunting prospect. Before you start, spend some time thinking about exactly what you want the garden for. Do you want purely ornamental planting, or productive areas as well? How much, if any, lawn do you want – do you need to supply a sports pitch or play area for the children? What about seating and entertaining areas and storage (where’s the lawnmower going to live?)? Then assess what you want against how much time you have to look after it, amend your plans as necessary, then it’s time to design your garden.
