Sandstone Retaining Walls
Solid sandstone suits the established streetscapes around Brighton and Hampton and holds up well near the coast. It’s a popular pick for front gardens, terraced beds and walls that are on show.
Find Out MoreWe design and build retaining walls in Brighton for homes where the garden matters as much as the house. On these established bayside blocks, a wall often has two jobs. It has to hold a level change properly, and it has to sit comfortably beside a renovated home, a new pool or a formal front garden.
Closer to the bay the ground can be sandier, so we plan footings and drainage for the soil on your block rather than using a one-size design. Access is the other local factor. Plenty of Brighton jobs sit behind narrow side paths or existing fences, and we plan the build around that before work starts. Send through a few details and we’ll come out and take a look.

Rock-filled cages drain freely through the face, which suits sandier ground. They also give a natural, textured look to a landscaped backyard.

A warm, simple option for low garden beds and smaller level changes, built with treated timber and proper drainage behind it.
Find Out MoreBefore we quote, we look at what the wall is holding back, how water moves across the block and how close the wall sits to the boundary, the house or a pool. Those things decide the footing, the drainage and the material, not a standard design pulled off the shelf.
If your wall needs a building permit, we’ll tell you early. In Victoria a permit is generally needed once a wall retains 1 metre or more, or where it’s tied to other building work or protects a neighbouring property. Bayside City Council or your building surveyor can confirm what applies to your site, and our guide on council approval for retaining walls covers the basics.
We also work across neighbouring Hampton, Brighton East and Elsternwick, plus nearby Bentleigh and Moorabbin.

Whether it’s a feature wall out the front or a level lawn out the back, we’ll give you clear advice on the right wall for your Brighton property and a straight answer on what’s involved. Fill in the form or give us a call to book a site visit.
