Flat wall caps in Cork area

    I've a 200 ft stepped wall with four piers to cap. Preferably I was looking for limestone capping but I got a price of just under €4000 this morning so that's out of my budget.

    I don't mind going with precast but is there anywhere in the Cork / Munster area that does nice precast concrete caps that are flat or someway different to the bog standard triangular caps you see everywhere. I'm finding it difficult to find something like that.

    Or is there anywhere that even does imitation stone caps (if there is such a thing) to cut down on the price of actual stone ?

    My wall is block on flat all the way so I guess I would need 300mm wide caps.

    feather edge cap is what you want, slopes from one side to the other, you can't get flat caps for obvious reasons, again imitation stone caps or reconstituted stone will be expensive
