Northern Rivers Retaining Walls
A well-designed retaining wall does more than hold back earth—it reshapes your landscape, unlocking new possibilities for outdoor living. Whether you’re dealing with sloping ground, drainage issues or want to define garden spaces with structure and style, retaining walls offer both function and aesthetic impact.
At Tim Williams Landscapes, we design and construct retaining walls tailored to your terrain, architectural style and goals. Using durable materials like sandstone, concrete blocks or timber, we ensure your wall is not only strong and stable but also complements the surrounding environment. Our walls are engineered to manage water flow, prevent soil movement and create usable space across levels. We also create other
landscaping elements,
decking and garden designs.

What’s Included in Our Retaining Wall Services?
Retaining walls are structural elements that must be built with care. Here’s what our retaining wall service covers:
- Site Assessment & Design
We assess soil type, slope and drainage to plan a wall that’s both practical and visually aligned with your garden. - Material Selection
Choose from timber sleepers, concrete blocks, natural stone or rendered masonry—each with unique strengths and finishes. - Drainage Integration
We include proper backfill, weep holes or ag drains where needed to prevent pressure build-up and improve longevity. - Construction & Finishing
Our team handles excavation, levelling and building with precision, finishing your wall to suit the surrounding landscape.
What type of retaining wall is best for sloped blocks?
The best type depends on slope steepness, soil conditions and desired aesthetics. Gravity walls, cantilevered systems and sleeper walls are all suitable depending on the site.
Do retaining walls need council approval?
In many cases, yes—especially if the wall exceeds 600mm in height or affects drainage. We can advise and assist with any required approvals during the planning stage.
How do retaining walls support proper drainage?
They’re built with integrated drainage solutions like gravel backfill, filter fabrics and outlet pipes. These features reduce water pressure and help maintain wall integrity over time.
