We Build Retaining Walls in Tweed Heads

If optimally built and maintained, a retaining wall can achieve the desired effects up to 100 years! However, times may vary depending on the location of the wall, the health of the soil and the structural integrity of the building site. Because retaining walls last for an extended period of time, they make for a great investment. 

This will depend on a variety of factors – such as size, site location, the number of levels required, the materials used, etc. A professional retaining wall builder should be able to provide you with an accurate quote after they have assessed your needs and examined the proposed building site. 

There are a number of ways you can achieve this. Firstly, it’s advisable to inspect your wall regularly. You should also promptly fill in eroded areas and replant dead spots in the surrounding soil. Removing debris from any conjoining drainage pipes is also recommended.  

In most cases, it’s advisable for the shed slab to be 4-inches thick. This will achieve the optimal strength and integrity. However, depending on the size of the shed and the nature of the soil, the optimal thickness level may vary. It’s advisable to seek the opinion of a professional concreter.
