Retaining Walls

Every major wall type, built in-house - from timber, Keystone and Magnum Stone through to MSE, universal beam and reinforced concrete.

Retaining is our speciality. We build every major wall type, which means the wall you get is the one the site actually calls for - not the one a contractor happens to be set up for.

We work from engineered design through to completed wall: site preparation, excavation, piling, drainage, backfill and finish. Because we hold licensed builder and civil construction capability in the same team, we understand what has to happen after the wall goes in, and we plan the sequence around it.

We don't carry an engineer in-house. We work closely with trusted engineering partners, and we're equally happy building to a design from an engineer you already have.

Most walls we build sit on sites where access, ground conditions or an existing structure make the job harder than the drawing suggests. That is the work we are set up for.
