What's Included

Our Retaining Wall Service

From low garden walls to engineered walls over a metre, one team handles design, build and drainage. (Wall types drafted from the retaining category — confirm with Aaron before publish.)

Timber retaining walls

Treated-pine and hardwood walls built with proper posts, tie-backs and drainage — a cost-effective choice for lower walls and garden terraces.

Concrete block & poured walls

Concrete block and poured-in-place walls for a solid, permanent finish that handles heavy loads and West Auckland's wet clay with ease.

Engineered retaining walls

Taller or load-bearing walls designed and built to engineering specs and Auckland Council standards, with full documentation for sign-off.

Repairs to existing walls

We assess why a wall is leaning, bowing or failing — usually drainage — then rebuild or reinforce it so the problem doesn't repeat.

Our Process

How We Build Your Retaining Wall

A clear, no-surprises process from first look to final finish.

01

Site assessment & design

We inspect the slope, soil and load, then recommend height, material and drainage — flagging where engineering or consent is needed.

02

Engineering / consent check

Where a wall needs it, we work to engineer's specs and Auckland Council consent requirements so your wall is compliant and sign-off ready.

03

Construction

We dig to solid ground, set foundations, and build the wall with correct reinforcement and backfill layered in as we go.

04

Drainage & final finish

Aggregate backfill, drainage pipe and weep holes go in, then capping and clean-up — leaving a wall that's straight, drained and built to last.
