Create level, usable spaces in your yard
Strong Support for Sloping Blocks
Sloping or uneven yards can be hard to use and maintain. Without the right support, soil can shift, gardens wash away, and outdoor areas lose their shape. At LD Carpentry in Goulburn, we build retaining walls that not only hold back earth but also improve the look and function of your yard. Whether it’s timber for a natural feel or concrete for maximum strength, a retaining wall gives you level, usable space that lasts.
The right retaining wall adds stability and style to your property. Call 0455 558 798 today to find out how we can help shape your outdoor area.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do retaining walls last?
The lifespan depends on the materials and construction method. Properly built concrete retaining walls can last several decades, while treated timber walls may need replacing sooner due to natural weathering. Drainage and maintenance also play a big part in longevity.
Do retaining walls need drainage?
Yes. Without adequate drainage, water builds up behind the wall and creates pressure that can cause it to crack or collapse. Properly installed weep holes, gravel backfill and drainage pipes are essential to make the wall safe and long-lasting.
What is the best material for retaining walls?
It depends on your goals. Timber is cost-effective and suits natural landscapes, but it requires maintenance. Concrete is stronger, more durable and low-maintenance, making it ideal for structural or long-term solutions. Stone can also be used for a premium look.
Practical Solutions That Look Great Too
A retaining wall isn’t just about stopping soil movement; it’s about creating outdoor areas that work better for everyday life. They can frame garden beds, add terraced levels to your yard, create usable flat ground for kids to play on, or even double as built-in seating. With careful construction, good drainage and quality finishes, retaining walls become both practical and attractive features of your property.
When done properly, a retaining wall does more than support; it transforms your yard into a space you can enjoy. Call 0455 558 798 to discuss the options for your home.
