THINGS TO KNOW

UNIVERSAL / U-GRIP BASE UNIT IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The base units are designed to provide the installer a flat surface on the retaining wall base gravel to facilitate quick and easy installation of any retaining wall type. These units also help bridge smaller retaining wall units to prevent differential settlement between units. The multiple lines embossed into the surface provide an alignment guide when placing retaining wall units.

Handling and Installation –

The top of the unit should be located below grade in the base trench so that a minimum 6” of the first row of block sits below grade as well.

Units can be individually levelled or they can be placed on a screeded bed of stone chip for rapid installation. Although rectangular in shape, they can be installed in a “sailor” pattern or a “soldier” pattern depending on the wall type and/or the desired appearance.

Always sweep the surface clean prior to placing the first row of retaining wall units.

EnduraColor
Since the 1990s, our EnduraColor pavers have made use of a special manufacturing process that helps retain color for years or even decades to come. It’s a proven process that Unilock introduced to North America well before any other manufacturer. With that kind of resilience in the pavers they choose, homeowners can rest assured knowing that their property will continue to stun friends, neighbors, and even potential buyers well into the future.
Classic
Design trends rise and fall, but for something to be considered classic it needs to be both timeless and elegant. No two words could better describe the Unilock Classic paver. Available in a wide variety of shapes and styles, Classic pavers are made using a proven manufacturing process—blending cement, colors, and stone aggregates into a single batch and distributing the mix throughout the finished paver. This ensures a uniform look that is strong but capable of being formed into the wide variety of styles Classic is known for.

3D Landscape Design: Is it time to add it to your toolbox?
Business Topics
A meticulously hand-rendered landscape design plan is incomparable to anything else. The ability to draw every detail, from the smallest plant to the largest water feature, is a skill that creates functional works of art that, up until recently, drew customers. Today, however, landscape design has joined the rest of the design world: technology is king. As competition in the landscape industry becomes fiercer, owners are looking for anything that can help set them apart. 3D design is a great opportunity to do just that.
