I was quoted $5,900 for 30m of retaining walls 1m in height. 75mm timber H4 treated pine. Alternatively I have been quoted $6600 for galvanised steel uprights with 100mm sleepers. Both quotes include excavation, drainage and plastic sheeting behind the wall. Brittany - is the tradie looking to retire from your job?
