Retaining walls that hold their ground

Strong, compliant and good-looking walls for residential and commercial properties across Brisbane - designed for the soil pressure and drainage your block actually faces.

Wall types

Pick the right wall for your block

Every material has its place. We'll recommend the option that suits your site, your budget and the height the wall needs to hold.

Concrete sleeper retaining wall with galvanised steel posts

Concrete Sleeper

Maximum stability for heavy-duty residential, commercial and civil jobs. Custom engineering for soil pressure and water drainage, fully compliant with local building codes, and near-zero maintenance for decades.

Timber

A natural look that complements garden landscapes, and the budget-friendly option for residential blocks. Treated timber resists rot, termites and moisture.

Large sandstone block retaining wall

Sandstone & Rock

Timeless, elegant and extremely durable. Natural stone lifts an outdoor space, stands up to harsh weather, and needs very little upkeep over its life.

Engineered sleeper retaining wall with timber fence above along a side path

For heavy loads, tricky slopes and commercial boundaries. Designed and certified to Australian standards where engineering sign-off is required.

Walls + fences

Fence on top? Done in the same job

Most retaining walls carry a fence. We build both together - posts set into the wall structure, so the fence adds strength instead of compromising it, and you deal with one crew instead of two.
