Using Color With Ledgestone

Using color in Redi-Rock blocks adds a whole new look to the final product. We have been experimenting with different colors in our concrete mix and on the face of our new Ledgestone blocks.


Below you can see some of our progress.





We strive to constantly innovate with our product lines. If you think you have a color choice for a specific project, let us know, we will make it happen!

Ledgestone Is Here!!!

The new look for Redi-Rock is Ledgestone. Today we have pulled the first two blocks from their forms. I think they look great! We already have a new project wall to start in the spring for this new exciting face!

"Weep" Block

Designing a wall that efficiently drains water, is one of the keys to a good design. The above and below pictures show a custom block that was made for a tall "gravity wall". 6" PVC pipe runs straight through the block from the front to the back. The install crew will then attach their drainage system to the 8 inches extending from the back of the block.

This custom block will save the install crew many hours in labor, resulting in a seamless look and a lower cost of installation.

Concrete Texturing Tool & Supply

This company specializes in custom concrete applications. It was a big compliment when they chose our block for this project. This wall has been been here for a few years now, and it still looks great!


They also used our block in their loading area......

Backyard Patio

Using Redi-Rock pavers for a patio couldn't be easier. Just level the ground with sand/gravel, and set them in place. Kinda like an instant patio. I'm sure the homeowners will enjoy their time relaxing and entertaining on this new feature of the home.



Of course, some grass seed will follow.

Retaining Wall in Carbon County




The retaining wall you see in these pictures, is a replacement for an old deteriorating wall from the past. The installer, Nevin, did a fantastic job laying down the block.




This wall is a "Gravity Wall", meaning no reinforcement was necessary for the wall to hold back the pressure of the road behind it.







Saint Luke's Hospital Parking Lot




When St. Luke's Hospital needed to expand their parking lot, Redi-Rock was called upon. Here you can see a nice curve in the wall. All of the blocks used in the curve are standard retaining wall blocks. The Standard taper of the blocks allowed this radius to be created with ease.













After the wall was constructed, a fence was added for safety.
