Tell us about the slope that needs holding.
We will book a free site assessment, check the soil, the fall and the access, and send back a by-the-face-metre quote split into clear lines, so you can see exactly what you are paying for and compare it properly against anyone else. Want a number sooner? Send a photo of the slope and the old wall and we will give you an indicative price first.
Fast and free
Send a few photos of the slope and the old wall for an indicative price before we even visit, then a call or text back within one business day. Free and no-obligation.
Itemised, not a round number
A by-the-face-metre quote that names the face-metres and height, the material, the footing, the drainage, the engineering line over a metre, and excavation and access, with SA Builder Lic. BLD 000000 on it. No surprise figure at the end.
The boundary note included
If the wall holds up a boundary, we give you a clear quote and a plain-English note on how the responsibility usually falls between neighbours, so you can have the conversation next door. General guidance, not legal advice.
No surcharge nearby
Within 35km of Stirling there is no travel charge.
What an honest retaining wall quote itemises.
- 1 Face-metres, height and material. The price broken down by face-metres and the wall height, with the material named: concrete sleeper, core-filled besser, timber, link-block or stone. Not one round number for "a retaining wall".
- 2 The footing and reinforcement. The footing sized to the wall and the soil: a reinforced concrete footing for besser, concrete-set posts dug to depth for sleeper walls, with the reinforcement named. This is the line cowboys skip.
- 3 The drainage, as its own line. The ag-pipe (subsoil drain) along the base, the free-draining aggregate backfill, the weep holes and the geofabric. Trapped water is the number one reason walls fail, so the drainage is on the quote, not left off.
- 4 The engineering and council line. If the wall retains over a metre, the structural engineer design and certification and the council development approval, itemised, with a realistic approval timeline, not folded into a round number.
- 5 Excavation and access. The cut, the machine access on a steep or tight block, the spoil carted away and the tip fees, each a line, never sprung on you at the end.
- 6 The boundary-cost note. If the wall holds up a neighbour boundary, a plain-English note on how the cost usually falls (the benefit / whose-land-is-retained rule), so you can have the conversation. General guidance, not legal advice.
- 7 Warranty and compliance. The 10-year structural workmanship and drainage warranty in writing, and the AS 4678 / NCC compliance with the engineer design where the height needs it.
Tierline Retaining Walls is a composite reference site, so submitting this form does not send anything. On a live build the request lands with the wall builder, who calls back within one business day to book the free site assessment.
