Well-Crafted Retaining Walls

Lawrie’s Landscaping and Concreting specialises in building functional and aesthetically pleasing retaining walls.

Purpose Built 

We build retaining walls to serve various purposes, including:

  • Preventing soil erosion and landslides
  • Creating level areas on sloped landscapes for gardens, driveways or buildings
  • Managing water runoff and preventing flooding
  • Enhancing the aesthetic appeal of a property

Design Considerations

Here at Lawrie’s Landscaping and Constructions, we carefully consider all factors associated with designing and building a retaining wall, such as soil type, slope angle, water drainage, load-bearing capacity and aesthetic preferences. We make calculated decisions on all factors to determine the appropriate dimensions, reinforcement and construction methods. 

Types of Retaining Walls

There are several types of retaining walls, each designed for specific situations

Gravity Retaining Walls – These walls rely on their own weight to resist the pressure of the soil behind them. They are often made of concrete, stone or masonry blocks.

Cantilever Retaining Walls – These have a reinforced structure that extends below the ground. They use a combination of base slab, stem and heel to counteract the soil pressure.

Anchored Retaining Walls – These walls use cables or other types of reinforcements that are anchored into the ground behind the wall to provide additional stability.

Gabion Retaining Walls – These walls are constructed using wire baskets filled with rocks or other materials, creating a flexible and porous structure that allows water to pass through.
