RETAINING
WALLS

We build solid, engineered retaining solutions that hold their ground — whether it’s a steep slope, tight boundary, or flood-prone site.

Earthworx delivers retaining wall solutions for all types of terrain and all scales of project — from simple timber walls through to multi-tiered structural systems on challenging Northland slopes. We design and construct timber, concrete panel, Keystone block, rock, and gabion walls to suit site conditions, load requirements, and visual preferences.

Our team is experienced in constructing retaining for subdivisions, slip repairs, roading corridors, and private properties, including works near waterways or in geotechnically sensitive areas. We work closely with geotechnical engineers and clients to make sure every wall is properly scoped, consented (if needed), and built to last. Our in-house GPS and survey equipment ensures wall location and levels are accurate to plan, avoiding costly errors or redesigns.

What makes Earthworx different is our ability to balance form, function, and buildability — we don’t just follow drawings blindly. We look for smarter construction methods, sequence works to reduce disruption, and deliver clean, well-finished outcomes that hold up to both scrutiny and the elements.

Our retaining wall capabilities include:

  • Timber pole and board retaining

  • Precast concrete panel walls

  • Keystone and interlocking block systems

  • Gabion basket walls

  • Rock and riprap retaining

  • Multi-tiered and compound wall systems

  • Retaining for slip stabilisation and road corridors

  • Walls adjacent to waterways and flood-prone areas

  • Surveying, design coordination, and buildability advice

  • Excavation, drainage, and backfill integration
