Rockworks takes 1st Place in the 2017 Detroit Home Awards!
Posted by Press Release

Rockworks, LLC. takes 1st place in the Gate / Fence / Wall category.

The site challenge was that the hillside, a 30-foot drop, was falling into the river, the access was limited, and the client was extremely concerned that they would loose their home. With a carefully thought-out plan, an aesthetically pleasing engineered solution was designed and installed. Five 6-foot-high natural stone retaining walls were used to hold the earth back. The retaining stones were 12 to 14 inches thick, and more than 70 natural stone steps and landings that switchbacked to the river’s edge were incorporated, making it aesthetically pleasing.

 

Rockworks, LLC also took 2nd Place in the Residential Landscape Water Feature Category:
