RETAINING WALLS

If you’ve got a sloped section that you want to make better use of, a solid retaining wall could be just what you need.

With over 20 years experience on all kinds of difficult sites, we can build you a high quality retaining wall of any size, just about anywhere.
 
We’ll help you choose a wall that suits your house style and your budget, whether you’d like the classic wooden retaining wall, or a more modern gabion basket for that designer look.
 
We regularly work with home owners, architects & house building companies - if you have plans already drawn up, we can build according to these, or create our own to suit your requirements.

FOUNDATIONS / FOOTINGS

Concrete foundations or footings act to support the walls and weight of the house, so it’s incredibly important get these right.

That’s why we assign our most skilled operators for all foundation jobs, to ensure they’re accurately digging the footings. Sticking to the builder’s measurements ensures that we use the correct amount of concrete as budgeted - so you don’t end up with any surprise bills for more.
 
And unlike most contractors, we don’t mind getting out of the digger and giving the building team a hand when we’re in between tasks.
 
We pride ourselves on our great communication with the builders working on-site, and work cooperatively to get things done efficiently.

CONCRETE & GRAVEL DRIVEWAYS

As it’s the first impression that visitors get of your home, you don’t want a cheap contractor doing a shoddy job on your driveway.

At Linwood, we carefully create a solid and visually impressive driveway that won’t crack or break. We can build driveways on sloped or flat sections - curved or straight - to last you for decades.

Before we lay a new driveway we make sure to work with existing pipes and cabling underneath, or add these in as we work to ensure proper drainage or connections to electric gates.
 
Concrete driveways are perfect for residential and urban areas, and gravel driveways are the best choice for more expansive or rural areas with a lot more coverage required.
