About retaining walls
Retaining walls hold back soil on sloping blocks and use timber sleepers, concrete blocks or natural stone, with drainage behind the wall to stop water pressure building up. Walls over a certain height often need engineering and council approval. Ask whether approval and drainage are included.
Getting quotes in Kensington
Before booking a landscaper for retaining walls, ask whether the price includes GST, callout and materials, and get it in writing. The quoting spread between operators in the same suburb is bigger than most people expect, which is exactly why comparing pays.
Local knowledge counts
Being in the Inner Adelaide area gives Kensington residents genuine choice for retaining walls. That competition keeps quotes honest, provided you actually collect more than one before booking.
Quick answers
Do I need council approval for a retaining wall?+
Many councils require approval for retaining walls above a set height, often around one metre, and walls near boundaries or affecting drainage may need engineering. Rules vary by council, so ask your landscaper to confirm before building. Building without approval can be costly to fix.
When is the best time to landscape?+
Autumn and spring are ideal for planting and turf because the soil is warm and the weather is mild, which helps plants establish. Hardscaping like paving and walls can be done year round. Summer planting is possible but needs more watering to survive.
How much does garden maintenance cost?+
A regular garden tidy commonly runs $50 to $80 per hour, and a routine fortnightly visit for an average yard is often $60 to $150 per visit depending on size and what is included. Ongoing schedules usually work out cheaper than occasional big clean-ups.
