Wollert's estates, including Lyndarum North, are full of new homes on gently sloping land — driveways, paths and sleeper walls are our bread and butter here.
Plenty of Wollert blocks were cut and filled when the estate was built, leaving a step along the boundary that needs holding back. Concrete sleeper walls with galvanised steel posts are the most common fix — tidy, fast to build and ready for a fence on top.
Every wall we build has properly set posts or footings for its height and soil, ag-pipe drainage at the base wrapped in sock or geofabric, clean gravel backfill so water can reach the pipe, and an outlet that goes somewhere legal. Walls over 1 metre — or close to a boundary, building or driveway — are built to an engineer's design.
We bring samples to every Wollert measure so you can see them against your house.

We can usually measure in Wollert within 48 hours. Most retaining walls jobs are on site within one to three weeks of saying yes, weather permitting.
Wollert is in City of Whittlesea. In Wollert, as across Victoria, a retaining wall over 1 metre generally needs a building permit and engineering, and lower walls can too if they're near a boundary, building or easement. Drainage has to go to a legal point of discharge — City of Whittlesea can confirm yours.
Generally a retaining wall over 1 metre high needs a building permit and an engineer's design. Lower walls can also need one if they're near a boundary, building, driveway or easement, or hold up a load like a driveway. We'll tell you at the measure and can organise the engineering.
Timber sleepers are the cheapest up front, but concrete sleepers with steel posts usually work out better value because they don't rot. For most new-estate boundary walls, concrete sleeper is the sweet spot.
