The homeowner in Robina needed to replace their ageing timber retaining wall, which was over 30 years old and on the verge of collapse. Positioned right behind a swimming pool, the wall’s location meant that machine access was impossible. Additionally, the client wanted a termite-resistant solution to prevent future damage. After discussing their options, we recommended a composite sleeper retaining wall as the best alternative for its durability, strength, and minimal maintenance needs.
Our Solution
Given the tight space and lack of machinery access, our team had to rely entirely on manual labour to remove the old wall and install the composite sleeper retaining wall. Careful planning was required to ensure that all materials were transported safely and efficiently to the site. Despite the hot conditions, we worked methodically, ensuring a precise installation without disturbing the pool area. The composite sleepers provided the perfect balance of strength and aesthetics while guaranteeing protection against termites.
Outcome
In just four days, the old, failing timber wall was replaced with a modern, long-lasting composite sleeper retaining wall. The new structure not only enhances the backyard’s appearance but also offers a structurally sound and termite-proof solution. The homeowner was thrilled with the result, appreciating both the quality of workmanship and the fact that we managed to complete the job with zero disruption to their pool and outdoor space.
