MagnumStone® Retaining Wall System – Big Blocks, Bold Results

Thinking about putting in a retaining wall that actually looks good and holds up for decades? Let me tell you—MagnumStone® is one of the best systems out there. It’s strong, smartly designed, and way more efficient than the old heavy solid blocks. At Lee’s General Landscaping, we’ve got the crew and the know-how to design and install MagnumStone® walls that are both functional and beautiful.


Built for:

  • Retaining walls (big or small)
  • Hillside stabilization
  • Backyards, commercial sites, and everything in between

MagnumStone® Retaining Wall System


What is MagnumStone®?

MagnumStone® is the world’s first wet-cast, hollow-core, big block retaining wall system. That might sound fancy, but here’s what it really means: it’s lighter, stronger, and uses less concrete—so it’s better for the environment and easier on your install time.


Key Features:

Eco-Friendly & Smart

  • Uses 40% less concrete than traditional solid blocks
  • Lighter weight = easier and faster to install = less labor cost

Strong & Long-Lasting

  • Wet-cast concrete holds up better in Northwest weather
  • These blocks are built to last for decades, no crumbling

Natural Stone Look

  • You get the strength of concrete with the style of natural rock
  • Clean finish that adds curb appeal, not just utility

Flexible Designs

  • Comes with extender units for creative layouts
  • Great for tight corners, curves, or tall walls

Block Sizes:

  • Standard Block: 24″ H x 24″ D x 48″ W (covers 8 sq. ft.)
  • Half-High Block: 12″ H x 24″ D x 48″ W (covers 4 sq. ft.)
  • Step/Cap Unit: 6″ H x 24″ D x 48″ W – for top finish or stairs
  • Corner End Units: For finishing edges and sharp corners
