Our Retaining Walls Options
Explore the Ideal Retaining Wall for Your Wellington Home Or Business
Retaining walls are as diverse as the landscapes they inhabit, and choosing the right one for your property can transform your outdoor space. At Mauri Construction, we’re experts in crafting various types of retaining walls, each with its unique characteristics and benefits.
Each retaining wall type serves a distinct purpose and adds a unique aesthetic touch to your property. At Mauri Construction, we guide you through the benefits and considerations of each, helping you make an informed decision that perfectly suits your needs and vision.
Timber Retaining Walls
Timber offers a warm, natural aesthetic that blends seamlessly with many landscapes. Despite their appealing look, these walls are remarkably robust, effectively holding back soil while ensuring good drainage. They're a popular choice for creating terraced gardens or enhancing the levels of a sloping yard.
Stone Retaining Walls
With their rugged charm, stone retaining walls are a timeless choice. Whether you opt for natural or manufactured stone, these walls are incredibly durable, resisting weathering and erosion. They can handle significant loads, making them a suitable option for both residential and commercial properties.
Keystone Retaining Walls
Keystone walls use interlocking concrete units for high strength and stability. They're designed to withstand substantial pressure, making them an excellent option for areas with heavy soil. The textured face offers an attractive finish that can complement a range of property styles.
Gabion Retaining Walls
Gabions are stone-filled wire baskets stacked together to create a wall. Gabion walls are not only sturdy and effective at soil retention but also offer excellent drainage. Their rustic look can bring an engaging visual element to any property.
Garden Retaining Walls
Garden retaining walls are a perfect blend of function and aesthetic. They help create tiered flower beds or vegetable gardens, add structure to your landscape, and can be made from a range of materials, like timber or stone, to complement your garden's design.
Gravity Retaining Walls
Leaning on their weight to keep soil in place, gravity retaining walls offer a blend of durability and aesthetic versatility. Built from heavy materials like stone, concrete, or large timber, these walls withstand significant soil pressure. Their construction offers an array of design options, from rustic stone to modern concrete, enhancing your property while providing an effective solution for soil retention.

Specialized Retaining Wall Solutions for Residential and Commercial Properties
Retaining walls play a significant role in both residential and commercial landscapes. At Mauri Construction, we understand the distinct requirements and challenges that come with each type of property, and we’re equipped to deliver solutions that perfectly suit your needs.
Residential Retaining Walls
Residential landscapes can greatly benefit from retaining walls. Not only do they offer structural advantages like slope management and soil erosion control, but they can also significantly enhance the aesthetic appeal of your outdoor space. A garden retaining wall can create tiers for planting, making your garden even more vibrant and diverse. Whether you prefer the warm, natural look of timber, the rugged charm of stone, or the modern, clean lines of keystone, we work closely with you to bring your vision to life, enriching your property and lifestyle.
Commercial Retaining Walls
Commercial properties often require more robust and large-scale solutions. Retaining walls in these contexts must be built to handle larger loads and must adhere to stringent building codes and regulations. But functionality doesn't mean compromising on aesthetics. From gabion walls that blend rustic charm with impressive strength, to stone retaining walls that stand as timeless structures, we offer solutions that meet your functional requirements while enhancing your commercial property's appeal. With Mauri Construction, you can be assured of retaining walls that combine structural integrity with visual impact, adding value to your property
