How tall is the wall?

Measure the ground you need held back, not the fence above it.

What sits above the wall?

This decides whether you need a building consent.

How to get a fast, accurate retaining wall price

Photos help more than measurements. Stand back far enough to show the whole wall line, then take a second photo showing what is above the wall and what is below it. That tells us about surcharge, access and where water is going, which is most of what sets the price.

If you already have engineering drawings, send those too and we will price directly off them.

We measure every job on site before we price it.

What the written quote includes

  • Wall length and height, with the wall type and materials named
  • The drainage system, priced as its own line so you can compare quotes properly
  • Spoil removal, because the dirt has to go somewhere and that costs money
  • Engineering and council fees where the wall needs a consent
  • The tiered alternative, where your section has room for it

Common questions

Quotes and site visits: common questions

What do you need from me to give a quote?

A rough length and height, a photo looking along the wall line, and a photo showing what sits above and below it. That is usually enough for a ballpark. For a fixed written quote we come out and measure.

Do you charge for the site visit?

No. The visit and the written quote are both free, and there is no obligation afterwards.

How quickly can you start?

It depends on the season and on whether the wall needs a consent. Exempt walls usually start much sooner. Consented jobs wait on council, and Christchurch City works to 20 working days from a complete application.

Which areas do you cover?

All of Christchurch, plus the Selwyn towns of Rolleston, Lincoln and Prebbleton, and Kaiapoi and Rangiora in Waimakariri. If you are outside that, call and ask.
