Retaining walls.
The competitively priced Landscape Tanks have the capacity to be used as retaining walls that will last a lifetime. This is particularly attractive and avoids the inconvenience and excessive costs associated with having to replace timber retaining walls at regular intervals, which is false economy.
Cost savings over conventional retaining walls coupled with the purchase of traditional rainwater tanks can also be expected.
Engineering specifications/drawings for both the standard unit and deep bed unit are available upon request.
The tanks may also be tiered for effect by utilising a row of standard tanks at the front with a row of deep bed units at the rear.
Landscape Tanks Pty. Ltd. staff will be happy to assist with any queries regarding retaining wall construction using the Landscape Tanks.
Front fences.
It is also possible to use the Landscape Tanks as front fences for stunning results (see gallery).
The front fence area of most properties is wasted space and as such makes an ideal area to store water.
Courtyard - Pergola enclosures.
The Landscape Tanks may also be used as a great courtyard surround for brilliant results and privacy. It is even possible to build a BBQ or Water Feature into the planter box top. Consult Landscape Tanks in this regard.
