We Are Experts in Sydney with Retaining Wall Construction
Sydney soil and Sydney weather are known to us. All of our walls are built with that in mind.
We are also a retaining wall specialist, and we always begin by performing the correct site evaluation. Before recommending a design, we inspect the soil, slope and drainage requirements. This helps to provide you with security for your investment and helps to prevent issues in the first place.
We service all aspects of the project: excavation, footings, wall construction and drainage. Handle everything we do to save you the hassle worrying about different trades. One point of contact, one team to report to.
Retaining wall replacement is also available and can be installed to replace old, failing, or damaged walls. If your existing wall is leaning, has cracks or bulges, we determine the cause and rebuild it correctly, with the proper drainage and foundation.
Types of Retaining Walls We Build
We construct several kinds of walls, and we’ll help you determine which one will prove to be most suitable for your site, budget and style.
Concrete Sleeper Retaining Walls
Strong and durable, concrete sleeper retaining walls are able to resist damage. Steel-reinforced concrete sleepers will not give way to the heavy loads and rough weather. They are durable and do not rot, repel pests, or decay. They are a good option for high loads or a tall wall.
Timber Retaining Walls
Timber retaining walls help to bring a rustic feeling to your garden. They are less expensive than many and climb quickly. Timber for smaller walls and softer landscape styles. Remember, the trees should be continually monitored for rot and invertebrates.
Block Retaining Walls
Modern homes can benefit from block retaining walls for their clean-cut and tidy appearance. They fit snugly, will bear the winds and elements nicely, and are available in a variety of colours and textures. They are suitable for low edges around the garden as well as for taller garden structures.
Sandstone & Boulder Walls
This is a sandstone with a beautiful natural look and feel, and will certainly bring beauty and strength to any garden. Boulder walls are made of large rocks and are used to create a stable and secure structure, while also providing a natural element of protection for the slopes.
Why is Retaining Wall Drainage Important
A well-designed retaining wall drainage system is responsible for wall stability for decades. Pressure is caused when water collects behind a wall. With time, that pressure distorts the wall and creates cracks or breaks.
Our retaining wall contractor in Sydney ensures all walls are properly fitted with drainage:
Weep holes – allow trapped water to finally drip out and relieve pressure on the wall.
Drainage pipes – to collect water and convey it safely away from footings.
Drainage fabric – prevents soil from entering the drainage.
All these attributes contribute to maintaining water flow and wall stability. In Sydney, nowhere is drainage less important than the reason why walls fail and never do.
These features work together to keep water moving and your wall stable. Skipping drainage is the top cause of retaining wall failure in Sydney, so we never cut corners here.
