Before purchasing garden blocks, measure the area you’d like to build or edge and work out the height, length and shape of your project. This will help you estimate how many blocks you need and whether your design will require straight blocks, corner blocks, capping, or a combination of pieces. 

A solid base is one of the most important parts of any garden block project. For best results, clear and level the area first, then create a compacted base using road base, crusher dust, or another suitable compactable material. This helps keep the blocks stable, level and looking neat over time. 

Depending on your project, you may also need extra materials such as geofabric, drainage gravel, ag pipe, adhesive, capping blocks or backfill soil. Drainage is especially important if you are building a raised garden bed or low retaining wall, as trapped water can put pressure on the blocks and affect the finished result. 

Think about how the finished area will be used before choosing your blocks. For example, a decorative garden edge may only need a simple single-row design, while a raised garden bed or retaining section may need stronger blocks, better drainage and more careful preparation. Planning ahead will make installation easier and help you get a cleaner, longer-lasting finish. 

Garden blocks are great for raised garden beds, garden edging, feature walls, low retaining walls and creating structured areas throughout your outdoor space. 

Many small garden block projects can be DIY-friendly with the right preparation, tools and materials. Larger or structural retaining walls may require professional advice or installation. 

Measure the length of the area you want to build, then check the size of the blocks you’re using. Divide the length of the project by the length of the block – this will result in the number of blocks needed for one layer. If you are building up to create a raised garden bed or low retaining wall repeat this process with the height. Don’t forget to allow for corners, curves or capping.
