You Don’t Have to be in the Train Business to Need a Concrete Sleeper Manufacturer

If we were a concrete railway sleeper suppliers in Australia, things would be rather quiet as our only customers would be the railway companies. As it is, we are doing a roaring trade as concrete sleeper retaining wall installers, and our area of business is largely people’s gardens. That’s because our products are perfectly suited to the requirements of the not-so-great outdoors, the great little areas that give character to homes. As concrete sleepers suppliers we provide superbly long-lasting, versatile, heavy-duty products that serve a variety of purposes around the garden.

Concrete Sleepers Installation is the Foundation of a Garden

While a garden is ever-changing, we can’t allow nature to go crazy. Even in the current trend towards rewilding, giving up our innate desire to dictate what goes where and give it a trim from time to time, there has to be a structure that keeps a garden solid and intact. The concrete sleeper suppliers Australia need, provide stability in the form of retaining walls and edging.

Until recently much of the heavy work in this respect was done by timber, just as it was on the railways. Big, strong, heavy slabs of hardwood. The only trouble with that is that as tough as it is, wood can crack, warp, split and rot. It is also vulnerable to termites. All in all, it has been exposed as not as tough as it looks. The game was up for wood a while ago in the field of windows, with aluminium and uPVC doing the job more efficiently, and now the same principle applies here.

Out in the garden, the material for the job is reinforced concrete. Do you need a wall that can take a lot of weight, a bit of rain and a lot of sun over the years? Our materials will give you that. Tough, muscular concrete with steel bones inside to add stability.

For clean and precise boundaries in your garden, consider using garden concrete edging to separate different areas and add a polished look.

In boxing terms, our products range from middleweight to super heavyweight. We call them structural, heavy-duty structural and extra heavy-duty structural.

Tough Can Be Good Looking Too

Real-Crete’s innovative approach to concrete manufacturing ensures that your garden structures are not only durable but also aesthetically pleasing.

It is easy to dismiss concrete as a functional material with no attractive qualities, but that is simply not true anymore. With texturing and colouring, our retaining walls and other items can look superb, with grainy wood-style looks. We offer a choice of stackstone and split rock, while colours range from sandstone to charcoal and slate grey to peppercorn. That means you can dress your solid features in the same way as you would choose paint or wallpaper indoors. A concrete retaining wall installation can be a thing of beauty. Woodgrain concrete sleepers provide the natural look of timber with the added benefits of concrete’s longevity and strength.

The old stereotype of the concrete jungle doesn’t stand up anymore. People have been applying attractive facings to house exteriors for years and now you have the option of doing the same in the garden, so that the immovable objects are suitably good looking to go with the irresistible forces which, it turns out, are not so irresistible after all.

Another choice for creating defined boundaries in your garden could be a post-rail fence, which offers both functionality and a rustic aesthetic that complements various landscape designs.
