I've had a landscape designer produce a design that requires a number of either or both cement rendered retaining walls and timber retaining walls. Does anyone know the approximate costs per square metre (including labour) for a rendered block retaining wall and a timber retaining wall? None of the walls require engineering or council approval (the highest is just under 600mm high) and I'm looking for indicative Sydney prices. Thanks, Jamie Re: Retaining wall costs 2Jan 31, 2008 4:06 pm I'm in the process of getting a quote for a big timber retaining wall (30cm - 1.9m tall and about 15m long)
Will report back when I get the quote!
