Types of Retaining Walls We Build

Our retaining walls in Brisbane are available in a range of materials and styles to meet different landscape needs, budgets, and preferences.

Concrete Retaining Walls
Concrete retaining walls are strong, durable and require minimal maintenance once installed. These walls are an ideal choice for those needing a modern, robust structure. The footer beneath the structure guarantees additional strength, ensuring long-term stability.

Timber Retaining Walls
For a natural and cost-effective option, treated timber retaining walls offer a charming, rustic sight. Timber complements garden settings well, blending seamlessly with the environment. It’s also an affordable option for property owners looking for beauty without a hefty price tag.

Stone Retaining Walls
Stone retaining walls, including limestone and sandstone, provide strength and a timeless look. These materials are ideal for managing water due to their porous nature, acting as a natural drainage system. Stone walls work wonderfully for adding a traditional element to your garden while creating separation between lawns, mulches or terraced areas.

Block Retaining Walls
Block retaining walls—whether using Besser blocks or paver stones—offer excellent flexibility in terms of shape, size and colour. This makes them ideal for creating unique landscape features that stand out. Blocks are also highly durable and suitable for garden beds, terraces and other structural requirements.

Which Material is Best for Your Retaining Wall: Concrete, Timber, or Stone?

Choosing the right material for your retaining wall is essential for ensuring long-term stability and cost-efficiency—here’s a look at the advantages and disadvantages of concrete, timber, and stone.

Concrete Retaining Walls

Advantages: Concrete retaining walls are known for their durability and strength, making them ideal for supporting large loads and constructing taller structures. They require minimal maintenance once installed, which is particularly advantageous for homeowners seeking a long-term solution. Concrete is also versatile, allowing for different finishes like smooth, stamped or coloured options, making it suitable for a variety of design preferences. This material is often used in both residential and commercial projects, offering a contemporary look.
Disadvantages: The primary disadvantage of concrete is the upfront cost, which can be higher compared to timber. Additionally, concrete may appear less natural in a garden setting unless given special textures or designs, which can sometimes limit its appeal for more rustic landscapes.

Timber Retaining Walls

Advantages: Timber is a cost-effective and easy-to-install material that provides a warm, rustic aesthetic, blending seamlessly with natural surroundings. Treated timber offers flexibility in design, allowing it to be used for curved or straight walls. It is a popular choice for gardens and smaller residential projects due to its affordability.
Disadvantages: However, timber requires regular maintenance, such as sealing or staining, to protect it from weather damage, pests and decay. Its lifespan is generally shorter compared to concrete or stone, which can lead to higher long-term costs if frequent repairs or replacements are needed.

Stone Retaining Walls

Disadvantages: The disadvantages of stone are primarily related to cost and labour. It is more expensive due to the material itself and the additional labour needed for installation. Stone is heavy and can be challenging to work with, which may lead to higher construction costs and a longer installation process.
Advantages: Stone offers unmatched durability, often lasting for decades with minimal upkeep. Its natural appearance adds a timeless, classic appeal to any landscape. Stone walls also provide excellent natural drainage due to their porous nature, making them ideal for managing water flow in sloped areas.
