Retaining Walls Built for Hackett's Sloping Blocks
Hackett sits right at the foot of Mount Majura, and a lot of the older blocks here slope more than they first appear. We build retaining walls that hold that ground in place, using timber, sandstone, concrete sleepers or gabion baskets depending on the grade and the soil we're working with.
Established gardens and mature trees are common on Hackett's blocks, so we plan each wall around what's already growing rather than clearing it first. Get in touch for a free quote on your retaining wall in Hackett or the surrounding inner north.
Retaining Wall Services for Hackett Owners
Gabion Retaining Walls
Gabion retaining walls suit Hackett's steeper blocks near Mount Majura, where the stone-filled baskets let water pass through instead of building up pressure behind a solid wall. They settle with the ground rather than cracking, which matters on a shifting or sloped site.

Timber Retaining Walls
Timber retaining walls fit the leafy, established feel of Hackett's streets, using treated pine that holds up against rot and weather. They work well for garden beds and smaller level changes on established blocks.
Read more →Sandstone Retaining Walls
Sandstone retaining walls bring a natural stone finish to Hackett properties, built from rock that holds up under Canberra's weather without losing its shape or strength over time.

Concrete Sleeper Retaining Walls
Concrete sleeper walls are a practical option for Hackett backyards, built from horizontal sleepers that create clean, level sections on a sloping block without a long install.

The Pros of Retaining Walls in Hackett
On a sloped block near Mount Majura, a retaining wall does real structural work, holding soil in place and giving you level, usable ground.
Manages Runoff on the Slope
A wall built with proper drainage behind it directs water away from your home instead of letting it pool against the footings.
Creates Usable Level Space
Levelling part of a sloped Hackett block opens up space for a garden bed, a patio or storage that wasn't usable before.

Why Choose Us for Retaining Walls in Hackett
Homeowners across Hackett choose our team for wall builds that account for the suburb's slope, soil and established gardens.
Site Assessment Before We Start
We check the grade and drainage on your block before recommending a wall type, so a steep section near Mount Majura gets a gabion or engineered design rather than a standard build that won't hold.
Council Requirements Handled
Higher retaining walls need council sign-off in the ACT. We manage the approvals so your Hackett wall is built to code from the start.
Clear Communication Throughout
You'll know what's happening at each stage of the build, from the first site visit through to the final clean-up.
