Hi Guys,
I'm building a retaining wall and I've just run out of blocks....
The blocks I'm using are hollow 390mm x 190mm x 190mm and I'm finding it very hard to source some more. There doesn't seem to be a problem getting the 215mm block but I'm afraid that they are no good to me as I need to add to existing courses. The company I got them from has ceased trading... I've tried all the builders providers in the Aberdeen area with no luck.
Does anyone know where I can get approx 120 blocks - this will finish the first section. But I'll need another 250 or so for the second section - but these can be the bigger (easier to get) size.
Thanks in advance

Would it matter if they corbelled out by 25mm on the inside face of the retaining wall?
 
Good point! I have started to concede that 215mm may be all that I can get. I was just trying to get blocks the same size (190mm) so that I could continue as I have more courses up on one side than the other. So, although the 215mm blocks won't be a problem in width, they will be a problem in height. But nothing that can't be sorted out.
