RETAINING WALLS

 
PAVING WATER FEATURES GARDEN FEATURES
DECKING GARDENS DESIGN
 
Retaining walls are a necessity in some areas to retain soil on a sloping or split-level block. They don’t just have to serve a purpose however, they can become a feature of the garden too. There are a wide variety of styles around to suit all landscaping styles.
 
Timber walls in hardwood or treated pine have been around for years, and so has various form of rockwork walls.  These days you can build with concrete interlocking blocks in various colours and designs, which has become very popular. You can also build the wall in a flat-faced concrete or brick block, and cover with random stone, slate, or pebble.
 
See below for our examples of retaining walls we have done

Timber walls can also be done with a dressed finish. Compare the top left (undressed) with the bottom picture (dressed), which gives a cleaner looking finish to a simple wall. It also hides any imperfections that timber can get due to warping over time.


The Wall can also be finished in a stain or  paint to make it a cost effective feature
