A Concrete Sleepers NSW Supplier with One Eye on Tradition
At Real-Crete, we are maintaining a Newcastle tradition. This is an area where heavy industry has thrived, and what we manufacture and supply may be the concrete sleepers NSW needs for its gardens, rather than producing coal, but it involves the same kind of honest labour as mining. We make the sort of heavy objects that the mines’ railways always depended on for moving their black gold.
The main difference is in the materials. Whereas the old railway sleepers were made of wood – big, solid chunks of timber – we deal in concrete. That is progress for you because as admirable as the qualities of wood may be, it is not as durable as what we make. Even the toughest timber sleepers are liable to crack, split, and rot, and they are vulnerable to the attention of termites, too. Those little varmints don’t get so much as a snack out of our products, so they are not so attracted to properties where the heavy stuff is made of concrete, and they might just move on in disgust. At least we don’t give them any encouragement. Real-Crete has set the standard in Newcastle by combining traditional craftsmanship with modern concrete technology, ensuring every product meets the highest quality. Read More
For Retaining Walls, Newcastle Chooses Concrete
The generic name for a lot of our products is sleepers, but concrete sleepers in Newcastle NSW also take in retaining walls in Newcastle because they have the same characteristics, being heavy and immovable when they are installed properly. Retaining walls hold back tonnes of soil and all that grows in it. Concrete railway sleepers suppliers play a vital role in ensuring that retaining walls and garden structures across Newcastle remain stable and durable for years to come.
If you have a garden, yard, or whatever you want to call the patch of land attached to your house, you may want to use it for more than one purpose. Sleepers for garden projects are not only functional but also enhance the aesthetic appeal of outdoor spaces, providing a reliable foundation for various landscaping features. Some families go for a kids’ play area but also want to grow some vegetables. Keeping the two separate requires a substantial concrete barrier, particularly if different levels are involved, and that is exactly what we provide. We also make post-and-rail fencing, which again involves no wood and therefore no potential for rotting and no secondary role as termite food.
Can Concrete Sleepers in Newcastle be Attractive?
Things have moved on in the world of concrete. In addition to being the last word in strength and solidity, it can now be a very good-looking material. This is achieved by texturing and the use of colours. Wood doesn’t have a copyright on its appearance, so we can give our walls, etc., a woodgrain effect, and we can make it sandstone or charcoal, slate grey or peppercorn in colour, which can make all the difference for blending in with the foliage. Coloured concrete sleepers offer a versatile solution for garden design, allowing homeowners to add a personal touch while maintaining the strength and durability of traditional concrete.
