Retaining walls are the ideal solution to many common Brisbane landscape problems. If you need to level slopes and stop soil erosion, retaining walls can create gorgeous green terraces that will add curb appeal and property value to your home.

If you are an avid gardener, use garden retaining walls to decoratively enclose areas for herb and vegetable patches. Retaining walls can raise the height of your beds to add interest to the landscape and make planting and upkeep easier on your back and knees. Walls also provide natural seating for when you entertain guests or just need to enjoy a quiet break away from it all in a favorite spot in your slice of paradise.

The type of low garden retaining walls Brisbane homeowners benefit most from don’t necessarily need to be made from expensive materials. This is the perfect use for that big pile of rocks you’ve dug out of your garden over the years. If you’ve been selling your rocks to tourists, fairly inexpensive materials like railroad ties can last for years and work wonders.

Once you have a good idea of what you want, getting it shouldn’t be a problem. If you don’t mind the time and hard work involved, there are excellent how-to tutorials online to fuel your DIY spirit.

Don’t hesitate to contact a Brisbane landscape professional who can provide you with design ideas, the best deals on materials, and can even do all that hard and heavy work while you plan the party to show off your new garden. Either way, your garden can soon have the retaining walls Brisbane friends and neighbors will envy.
