How much will it cost to build a retaining wall?

Retaining walls under 1.2 metres start from around $310* per metre. This cost depends on the materials you use and the site conditions. Timber retaining walls are generally one of the most affordable options, while stone-clad retaining walls are more costly. Once your landscape specialist has a clear idea of your project requirements, they will be able to provide you with a fixed-quote accurate to your specifications.

*Costs are rough estimates and are subject to change - GST is not included unless otherwise stated. For a fixed-quote accurate to your specific project, please consult your local Zones Landscaping Consultant.  

Will Zones take care of any required council consents?

Unless you live in a rural area, retaining walls exceeding 1.5 metres in height will require a building consent. Your Landscaping Consultant will take care of the application and approval process for you, ensuring all work adheres to the Building Code and local regulations. 

What are my retaining wall options?

Timber is one of the most common retaining wall options, thanks to its affordability and natural appearance. Concrete is another choice, which provides long-term durability. If price isn’t an issue and you want a highly durable material, consider stone-clad retaining. Stone-clad retaining is extremely sturdy and provides a luxuriously natural aesthetic.
