Book a site visit

A retaining wall carries the weight of the earth behind it, and of the water that soaks into it. It is sized for that pressure, and drained so that water never builds up behind it.

What is included

  • Survey of the slope and the ground
  • Wide reinforced concrete footing
  • Reinforced block or concrete wall
  • Drainage behind the wall and weep holes
  • Backfill with draining material
  • Stone facing or render on request

Good to know

Most retaining walls that fail do so because of water, not weight. Drainage is never an option in our quotes.

For a wall higher than about a metre and a half, or next to a building, we have it calculated by an engineering office before quoting.
