Why Timber Retaining Walls Work So Well
Timber offers natural flexibility that handles ground movement better than rigid materials. The warm, natural appearance complements gardens and outdoor living areas whilst providing the structural strength needed to hold back soil and manage water runoff.
We install proper drainage behind every wall using agricultural pipe and graded gravel backfill. This prevents water pressure building up, which is the main cause of wall failure. Our treated pine and hardwood sleepers are selected specifically for ground contact applications, giving you a wall that stays straight and strong.
Each wall is built on solid foundations that extend below the frost line, with posts properly spaced and braced according to engineering requirements. This attention to structural details means your wall won’t lean, bow, or settle over time.
Our Installation Process
We start every project with a site visit to assess your slope, soil conditions, and drainage requirements. This lets us design a wall that’s properly sized for the loads it needs to carry and the conditions it will face.
Our team excavates to solid ground, installs proper footings, and builds your wall with the correct batter (lean-back angle) for stability. We install drainage systems as we build, not as an afterthought, ensuring water moves away from the wall structure.
Throughout the job, we keep you informed about progress and handle all waste removal. You get a finished retaining wall that’s ready to use immediately, with clean surroundings and proper compaction of all backfilled areas.
