Hi,
I've just built a garden retaining wall using concrete blocks which i'm currently rendering. I've been browsing some coping stones for the top of my wall but am struggling to like any at the moment. I was wondering if it would be ok to use concrete or stones slabs as an alternative? I understand they won't have the drip groove underneath but i was thinking if there's enough overhang on either side and the slabs are set completely level, the run-off water shouldn't come into contact with the wall before it drips...?
What are peoples thoughts on this please?
