Retaining Walls

Although retaining an embankment has become faster and cheaper than ever before, it remains the same structural element it has always been.  The same soil mechanics and loading need to be considered before undertaking any wall higher than 1.5m.  There are now so many block options it is difficult to know which one suits an application best for both aesthetics and structural integrity.

Let us help you make the right choice.

Terraforce Rockface

A semi-plantable block with a rockface finish which can be built to height greater than 6m.

Sentinal Rockface

Clean lines and a coping stone make this the leader in aesthetic block walls.  Can be used for high walls with heavy reinforcing.

Earthform

​A great low cost option for those low priority (out of the way) retaining walls.  They can be planted into a true garden wall in grey or tan colours.

Remblock

Affordable but with great structural integrity.  This block is a favorite in the commercial and industrial sector for its capabilities at low cost.

Traditional Brick Walls

​Sometimes blending in with the rest of the architecture is the best way to go.  Offers decades of performance if a proper design is followed.

Stone or Rock Cladding

​For a more natural look, anything is possible.  Although cladding is generally more expensive, it is exquisitely unique.
