Rock Retaining Wall Example

As you can see by the photos this site is a fairly steep site with a grade of about 40°

Using large boulders to build a retaining wall in a 2 step style it not only provides stability to the site but also a very attractive feature which enhances the look of the house.

Planting out the garden with different LillyPilly varieties, Palms, Tree Ferns, Dwarf Wattle and various ground covers including Blushing Beauty, Aurora and Miniature Violets and using Pine Bark as mulch ads that extra to the site.

A project like this costs around $3000, which includes the cost of labour.
