Retaining walls hold back sloped or cut earth using timber sleepers or concrete blocks, with proper drainage behind the wall to relieve water pressure. Walls over 1m generally require engineering and council approval.
Glen Iris properties along Gardiners Creek often have a noticeable slope down toward the creek line, and a retaining wall here also plays a role in managing runoff during Melbourne's wetter months. See our full retaining walls guide for materials, council requirements and engineering info that applies across Melbourne.

I had a great experience working with Antonio from Antonio PrimeScape Construction on a recent paving job. Antonio and his partner Sebastian were fantastic to deal with from start to finish.
Antonio did an amazing paving job at our home in Wheelers Hill. From the first message he was very professional, arrived on time and explained every step clearly.
Antonio is very professional, hardworking and reliable. He did a fantastic job on my landscaping design, front yard and back yard, and helped remove an old concrete structure too.
