What are Retaining Walls and Why Are They Important
Retaining walls are structural features designed to hold back soil, prevent erosion, and create level areas on sloped blocks. Whether used for garden terraces, boundary definition, or added support near foundations, they’re essential for managing ground movement and improving usability.
In Melbourne, where weather, drainage, and shifting soils can affect outdoor spaces, well-built retaining walls offer both protection and practicality. They help prevent costly damage, direct water runoff, and create space for landscaping or functional zones.
When designed and installed correctly, retaining walls become a long-term investment, adding strength, structure, and visual appeal to your outdoor areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the purpose of a retaining wall?
Retaining walls are used to hold back soil, prevent erosion, and create level ground on sloped areas. They’re essential for stability, drainage, and shaping usable outdoor space.
Do I need council approval to build a retaining wall in Melbourne?
In many cases, yes, especially if the wall exceeds 1 metre in height or is near a boundary. We can help advise you on local regulations and assist with permits if needed.
What materials do you use for retaining walls?
We work with timber, concrete sleepers, and stone, chosen based on your budget, soil type, and the overall look you’re after.
How long does it take to install a retaining wall?
Smaller walls can be completed in 2–4 days, while larger or more complex projects may take a week or more depending on site conditions and materials.
How long will a retaining wall last?
With proper design and drainage, a well-built retaining wall can last 15–25 years or more. We only use durable materials and proven techniques to ensure long term performance.
