Project Process and Timeline


Our retaining wall projects follow a structured process to ensure quality results. We prioritise clear communication and efficient execution at every stage.


Initial Consultation and Design


We begin with a thorough site assessment to understand your property's unique requirements. Our team measures the area, examines soil conditions, and discusses your aesthetic preferences. We then create detailed design plans, including material choices and structural specifications.


Once the design is finalised, we provide a comprehensive quote and estimated timeline. This stage typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on project complexity.


Construction and Installation Stages


Site preparation marks the start of construction. We clear the area, establish proper drainage, and create a solid foundation. Next, we carefully lay the first course of blocks or stone, ensuring perfect alignment.


As we build upwards, we incorporate reinforcement methods like geogrid or deadmen anchors where necessary. Backfilling occurs progressively to maintain wall stability.


This phase usually lasts 1-4 weeks, varying based on wall size and site conditions.


Completion and Follow-Up


Upon finishing construction, we conduct a thorough clean-up of the site. We remove all debris and ensure the surrounding landscape is left tidy.


We then walk you through the completed project, explaining maintenance requirements and addressing any questions. Our team remains available for post-installation support.


A final inspection takes place after a settling period to confirm everything is performing as intended.
