CBS have supplied main contractors DY Space Ltd with L- type precast concrete retaining walls for their new build housing project in Chatham. The client needed a solution to safely protect newly built houses that were to be constructed in the cut away of the steep hill at the rear of the site. It was the purpose of the precast concrete retaining walls to support the earth at the rear of the site from collapsing. The aesthetics of the walls was also very important to this project as the walls would be clearly visible to the new residents on the site.

It was decided that the CBS Concrete Products L – type precast concrete retaining walls would be the best solution due to the uniform and consistent finish.
