Basalite Bayfield in Brentwood, CA
Available Colors
Basalite Bayfield is a segmental retaining wall block with a textured split-face front, sold as individual units that stack without mortar and lock together mechanically. As a retaining wall it holds back soil on a slope, creating usable level ground on a graded lot. As a freestanding unit it builds seat walls, planter surrounds, fire pit enclosures, and low garden walls that are finished on both faces. Bayfield is available in both configurations.
Curved and serpentine layouts are straightforward with segmental block, which is why seat walls and planter surrounds are such a common use — as shown in the photograph. Applications include terraced slopes, raised planting beds, seat walls, fire pit surrounds, tree rings, and grade transitions. The two colors, Positano and Verona, are also offered across several Basalite paver lines, so a wall and a patio can be specified in coordinated color on the same property.
Wall height and reinforcement requirements depend on site conditions, and taller walls may require engineering. Contact the yard to discuss your project and we can help determine the right system for your wall height. Encourage customers to see full-size units at the Brentwood yard, since block texture reads very differently in person.
