What to consider
Planning a retaining wall on a sloping block.
On a sloping block the wall comes before the fence, because the fence is only ever as straight as the ground under it. Retaining is shaped by levels, drainage and what is already nearby, so the site context matters more than the materials list. It is a bigger part of our work than most people expect: 139 of our last 993 jobs involved retaining.

Levelling a boundary before fencing it
Working around an existing driveway or garden
What affects the scope
What the levels and the drainage decide.
- Height, length and the change in level
- Ground conditions and access to the work area
- Fences, buildings, paving and services nearby
- Whether a fence goes on top, and how the two tie together

Questions, answered
Heights, engineering, and fencing on top.
What information helps with a retaining enquiry?
Photos from a few angles, rough dimensions, your suburb and any plans you have. That is usually enough for a useful first conversation.
Can retaining be done with a new fence?
Yes, and doing both together is usually the better order. Tell us if fencing is part of it so the levels and the fence line are planned as one job.
Is there a height where it gets more involved?
Taller walls bring in engineering and approval requirements. We will tell you at the site measure if your wall is in that territory.
