Retaining Walls

A well constructed retaining wall is a functional and attractive feature of your garden or landscape. There are several reasons why you may choose to stabilise your section;

  • To make it level to transform an unused or sloping section, adding valuable additional level space
  • To protect against natural erosion
  • To provide an attractive cover to the face of an earth bank
  • To simply create raised garden areas

Thomsons ITM use only high quality manufactured timber produced from 100% plantation Ratiata pine. All timber is treated in accordance with NZ Building code requirements for optimum durability.

Retaining timber is the most desirable timber for;

  • Retaining walls
  • Landscaping edges
  • Outdoor structures
  • Raised gardens
  • Pergolas
  • Playhouses & outdoor structures
