Timber

Timber pole and rail retaining solutions offer a budget-friendly approach to retaining walls while maintaining an appealing aesthetic when executed skilfully.

The construction process typically includes sloping the designated area, excavating to the required depth, and securely embedding the timber poles in concrete. Following the curing of the concrete, horizontal whalers are introduced, and specific drainage materials are applied behind the wall, adhering to engineering guidelines. The top-down construction technique is employed when ground characteristics necessitate this approach.

Auckland Retaining Wall possesses the capability to deliver both standalone timber pole installations and comprehensive retaining wall construction services.
