Retaining Walls

When either replacing an existing retaining wall, or building a new one, you should always make sure you contact a professional tradesperson to make sure the job gets done properly and safely. At CBR Landscaping and Excavation, we have a licensed builder with over 20 years in the construction industry and a wealth of knowledge in structural work. 

Did you know that some retaining walls require council approval, or even development approval? We can point you in the right direction for what your requirements are for your new retaining wall.

Concrete sleeper or timber sleeper retaining walls are our speciality. We can talk with you about the many style options, and help you decide on a solution that will suit your budget and your landscape design.
