What do retaining walls services include?
Retaining walls services include all the necessary tasks to build a sturdy and attractive retaining wall in your outdoor space to prevent erosion. Your hired retaining wall contractors can assess the site, help you design the retaining wall if you don’t have a design ready, then build the wall.Â
Assessing the site
The first step in retaining wall construction is taking site measurements. Your Tasker can consider distinct site features, like if the wall will be placed on a slope and if the site gets a lot of rain or snowmelt. The retaining wall builders can also recommend the appropriate design and materials to suit the site’s measurements and features.Â
Designing the walls
If you don’t have a design already, a local retaining wall contractor can help you make one. Some local landscape retaining wall contractors can provide you with not just any retaining wall design, but one that conforms with established zoning laws and safety and industry standards. The design can also have the aesthetic elements you want and be sturdy enough to prevent soil erosion in your property. Yes, you can have all this while keeping within your budget! When you post a task, specify your budget and get offers from retaining wall contractors near you.Â
Getting permits
The next step is to get permits for the design and build. Your Tasker can obtain the required permits from the relevant authorities like your Homeowner’s Association, City Planning Department, or other federal jurisdiction. Note that some Taskers may charge extra for getting these permits. Even as construction and zoning laws vary from state to state, don’t worry; Local retaining wall installers know how and where to get the appropriate permits.Â
Preparing for the build
Your Tasker can get the materials and prepare the appropriate tools. Whichever type of retaining wall you want to be built—brick, concrete, concrete bag, wood, or natural stone—your Tasker can get the right materials! Your Tasker can also make sure the materials and tools are of the right specification, quality, and amount. Then, they can turn over any leftover materials after the build.
Building the retaining walls
Your hired Taskers can do the retaining wall installation or construction once they’re ready with the design, permits, and materials. They can build your retaining wall as per the drafted design, so there are no surprises. The result could be an aesthetically pleasing yet functional wall that can protect your property from soil erosion. The Tasker can execute the design, whether it’s a retaining wall made of wood, concrete, hollow blocks, cement bags, or boulders. They’ll use the appropriate tools, procured materials, safety equipment, and techniques.Â
Finishing touches
Your Tasker can apply any finishing touches or embellishments on the retaining wall design as required. This can include installing capstones on stone walls, creating gradual step-downs or turning-in sections, backfilling, or installing greenery and other embellishments. Don’t forget that you can also have other features like privacy screens or outdoor blinds installed.

I want to erect a small concrete sleeper retaining wall at the back of my property (which backs onto reserve). Wall needs to be concrete (rather than timber) as we are in a bush fire zone. Dimensions of wall are about 8 meters long and up to 60 cms high at the highest point. I am happy to pay directly for the materials (additional to/not included in the agreed fee), although I prefer you to source and deliver these to the site. You also need to have the necessary tools. Materials and tools need to be carried from front of house to back of property. Plenty of room to work. Purpose of wall is to enable me to later level the land and tidy up area at back of house. In your offer, please explain briefly how you will do the job. - Due date: Flexible
Luke erected a retaining wall for me. He was very competent. He has an easy-going friendly manner. I definitely recommend him.

Modify a fence, confirm pier depth of a retaining wall
$500
Mosman NSW 2088, Australia
26th Sep 2023
My neighbour and I want to build a dividing fence on top of an existing 600mm high retaining wall that runs along our shared boundary line. To do so, we need to verify the depth of the concrete piers that hold the UCs (steel ubeam soldiers) supporting the retaining wall sleepers. Access to the piers is currently blocked by a 2200mm high lap and cap timber fence that runs alongside the retaining wall (offset by ~200mm). I have included photos of what the retaining wall looks like with and without the fence and a diagram showing what we are trying to confirm. This job entails: 1) Remove a fence panel to gain access to a portion of the retaining wall. Access to the fence will be from the side of the fence opposite the retaining wall (my property). 2) Excavate around one of the concrete piers of the wall using a shovel and pick until you find the bottom of the pier (expected to be 500mm - 1000mm deep and 450mm wide). Pile the soil on the opposite side of the retaining wall. 3) Measure the depth and width of the pier -- take photographic evidence of the depth and width. 4) If the depth is less than 1000mm, immediately replace the fence panel. - Due date: Before Saturday, 30 September 2023
