FAQs

Do I need a design?

Yes, for anything over 1m in height a design is required.

We organise a soil test and an engineers design along with a Form 15. We would love to work with you to design a retaining wall for your next project.

What is the advantage of a concrete sleeper retaining wall over a timber sleeper retaining wall?

Timber sleepers have an average life span of 10-12 years before they show signs of deterioration and begin to rot. To replace a timber retaining wall quite often will mean destroying landscaping you have lovingly created.

Concrete sleeper retaining walls typically last for 75 years+.

What is the cost difference between concrete and timber sleepers?

Concrete sleepers are on average 25% more expensive than a code compliant timber retaining wall. However, by choosing to build with concrete, we ensure your retaining wall is code compliant and built with the durability to last.

Do you offer other landscaping services?

Yes we do!

We can offer fencing, turfing and concreting to finish your project. We also work alongside other specialised trades.
