Client Challenge:
The homeowner was faced with deteriorating retaining walls made from a mix of timber sleepers and old car tyres, which had succumbed to termite damage over time. Recognizing the need for a more durable and long-lasting solution, they sought to replace the old structures with new, more resilient ones.
Our Solution:
Upon consultation, Australian Retaining Walls provided several concrete retaining wall options, from which the homeowner selected the Windsor concrete link blocks retaining system. Appreciating the system's aesthetic appeal and flexibility, we designed the new walls to wrap around the house and the back of the garage, incorporating graceful curves at the owner's request—a feature well-accommodated by the Windsor blocks.
Outcome:
The installation of the Windsor concrete link blocks not only provided a significant aesthetic upgrade to the property but also proved to be a more cost-effective solution than rebuilding with timber. The walls' curves added a unique architectural element, seamlessly blending with the property's overall landscape design.
Project Highlights:
This project showcases the versatility of the Windsor concrete link blocks retaining system, particularly its ability to create visually appealing curves that enhance the landscape's natural flow. The project underlines Australian Retaining Walls' expertise in delivering tailored solutions on the Gold Coast that exceed client expectations in both functionality and design, all while offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional materials.
