The blocks are typically made of concrete, and can be held together with adhesive or mortared in place. Block retaining walls are often used for decorative purposes, as they can be colored or textured to match the surrounding landscape.

Both block retaining walls and concrete sleeper retaining walls can be effective at retaining soil, but concrete sleeper retaining walls are generally more sturdy and long-lasting. They are also better suited for larger retaining walls or walls that will be subjected to heavy loads or high levels of water flow.
