Why You Should Consider an Armour Retaining Wall

Armour retaining walls are made from large, stackable stones that have a beautifully natural appearance, and incredible resistance. They can withstand tons of weight, making them an ideal solution for medium to large-sized walls.

Their stacking properties are convenient for higher walls, and used to frame driveways, walkways, and so on, creating a grand and dramatic entrance.

You may stick to the natural-looking stone, or add a stain to better match the current appearance of your home, without having to sacrifice durability and longevity.
