The first aspect to analyze would be the purpose and size of the wall you would like constructed. Whether a garden bed border, a property line marker, or perhaps the sole reason of adding a beautifully finished piece of hardscaping to your yard. Depending on the reason for erecting a retaining wall, along with the size needed, the material for the job could vary. Quite often the pieces used in construction will consist of either bricks, stones or boulders, poured concrete slabs, or even wood. We don’t recommend wood for most applications as it is vulnerable to bending, warping and even rotting over time. If you want to know the different types of retaining walls then our experts will be happy to help.


Although wood may not be suitable for sturdy retaining walls, it can be used in light applications such as a garden bed. When lumber pieces are used as such they can add a beautiful timber element to your garden, they are also lightweight and easy to adjust over time if needed. Although brick, stone, rocks or concrete retaining walls will require more time and effort throughout the construction, they are a much better choice when a strong, robust wall is required. They will also ensure a finished product that will last for years to come, not susceptible to warping or bending over time.


Once you have a firm grasp of the purpose of your wall, the size of retaining wall, and you have a good idea of the type of material you would like to use for it’s construction, then you are ready to start building your wall! We would love to be apart of this process, give us a call today and we can begin bringing your project to life.
