Retaining Walls Planned With the Boundary
Where a fence line involves changing ground levels, the retaining wall and fence need to be considered together.
White Pickets builds residential retaining walls as part of carefully planned boundary projects for inner Brisbane homes.
When the Fence and Retaining Wall Meet
Planning both elements together helps resolve levels, post positions, transitions and the relationship with the surrounding landscape.
It also gives Matt a clear understanding of how the boundary needs to function before work begins.
Every Site Is Different
Existing levels, access, drainage, nearby structures, landscaping and the fence above can all influence the appropriate solution.
Matt reviews the property and project scope before recommending how the work should be approached.
