Retaining Wall Systems

Conklin Limestone Company carries the entire Ideal Concrete Block® Company product line.  Ideal Concrete Block Company, Incorporated has made New England their home since 1923.  During that time, the Ideal tradition for quality has been passed along through three generations of the Burgoyne family who own and operate the company. In the mid-70's, Ideal became one of the first companies in the United States to manufacture concrete pavers.  They manufacture one of the largest assortments of interlocking concrete paving stones , landscape retaining walls and yardscape products in the Northeast.  Call or email us today for additional information and pricing.

Pisa® II

Pisa II is a full component system with a textured straight face that complements any setting with an elegant simplicity that gracefully conforms to the natural contours of the landscape. Subtle chamfers molded into its face create a wall with distinct horizontal lines that accentuate the shadows of the day’s changing light.  An off-set tongue and groove connection is continuous throughout the wall and securely couples the units together, creating a strong, solid interlock with automatic set-back. We mold a convenient handgrip into the back of each stretcher unit making Pisa II easy to lift and position in place.

Use your imagination and creativity to design classic style walls, curves, terraces, tiers, stairs, and 90° corners. With proper engineering, Pisa II walls over 20' in height can be constructed.

Stonewall™ & Stonewall II™

Stonewall features a hollow core design, which is filled with aggregate as the wall is built. This makes the unit very easy to handle during installation. Non-deteriorating nylon pins are used to align the units as they are stacked together for consistent and accurate construction. Walls 4' and higher can be built using geogrid reinforcement. A single unit is used for most types of walls. Dramatic convex or concave curves and serpentine walls are achieved effortlessly, and Stonewall can be used to build attractive tree rings as small as 6' in diameter.  You can also construct straight or terraced walls, 90° corners, and stairs.

Stonewall II is a shorter version of Stonewall and is perfect for lower-height retaining walls.  When stacked and aligned with the nylon pins, Stonewall II has the granite-like appearance of a sleek, cut-stone veneer wall.

GravityStone®

GravityStone is the next generation of landscape segmental retaining wall systems.  It combines the simplicity of easy-to-handle dry stack units with the superior earth retention capabilities of crib wall structures.  The individual units that form the GravityStone wall system assemble without heavy-duty construction equipment. The Face, Trunk, and Anchor units are light enough to be easily lifted by hand, and a patented “GridLock” coupling securely connects each component together.

GravityStone walls can be built much higher than conventional landscape walls without the use of geogrid - 8' high as compared to 4' high.  You can build straight or curved walls with GravityStone , as well as free-standing, double-sided walls up to 6' high that are unmatched in other wall systems.  GravityStone is also ideal for constructing handsome pillars for a grand entrance way or as a perfect finishing touch for a free-standing wall.  And GravityStone is available in a choice of textured split face or tumbled finishes!

Roman Pisa®

The distinctive look and warm, rich texture of Roman Pisa is reminiscent of the hand-crafted stone walls built by the New England craftsmen of yesteryear.  Its time-weathered appearance makes a Roman Pisa wall fashionable in any landscape setting.  We use the same process as our tumbled pavers to produce Roman Pisa’s rustic character, while preserving the structural stability of its tongue and groove connection. 
As with our Pisa II, you can construct virtually any type of wall, however, Roman Pisa also features a Jumbo unit that can be used to create a variety of appealing Ashlar patterns, as well as a several running bond combinations.

Roman Pisa has the same patented features as Pisa II and utilizes the same user-friendly construction techniques.

Tumbled GravityStone®

Our Tumbled GravityStone incorporates the same components and provides the same levels of performance as our regular GravityStone while offering a rustic appearance that is so popular with our other tumbled products.  Because only the Face unit undergoes our tumbling process, the integrity of the "Gridlock" couplings securely connects each component together.  The Face unit is imbued with a stone-like character that is unique to each piece. While Tumbled GravityStone is ideal for traditional types of retaining walls, it's natural appearance is particularly suited to free standing pillars and doubled-sided walls that distinctly sets landscapes and property lines apart!

ScapeStone™

Perfect for the do-it-yourselfer, ScapeStone creates beautiful, decorative landscape walls that blend naturally with your surroundings.  ScapeStone’s attractive beveled face gives it a natural, rustic appearance for straight or curved walls up to 2' high. Just a few dabs of our SRW adhesive on each unit is all it takes to hold this attractive wall securely in place.

Garden WallStone’s attractively textured split-face and small profile make it ideal for low walls such as tree rings, planters, and small retaining walls as high as 2'. A rear lip provides automatic set-back and allows easy wall construction.

Wall Coping

Universal Coping Stone™ makes an attractive cap or stair tread for Pisa II, Stonewall, GravityStone and Garden WallStone.  This versatile coping unit has one edge with a smooth finish, while the opposite edge provides a textured look - simply choose the one you prefer!  Grooves molded into the bottom make it easy to create corners with a matching edge.  The opposite faces of our Revers-A-Cap® coping unit are tapered, 8" wide on one side and 7" wide on the other, to eliminate gaps between the units.  You also can use Revers-A-Cap for straight walls by alternating the faces back and forth when installing.  Both faces are smooth, however, either can be split if you wish to match the textured face of the wall. Revers-A-Cap can be used with Pisa II, Stonewall, and Garden WallStone.

Roman Pisa® Coping features the same rustic, tumbled finish as our Roman Pisa wall units. It also can be used as an attractive coping unit for our GravityStone tumbled walls and as stair treads.
