Modular retaining walls in Perth
Interlocking concrete blocks that stack without mortar. The quickest wall to build, the easiest to curve, and the widest choice of colours and textures of anything we do.
Modular retaining walls, stacked and locked
Each block sits into the one below it, so the wall holds itself together without mortar. That makes it fast to build and it means we can follow a curve or step it down a slope without cutting corners.
The blocks come in a range of colours and finishes, from smooth charcoal through to a rough split face. Pick one to match the house or the paving and it looks like it was always meant to be there.

Modular retaining wall FAQs
Are modular walls as strong as limestone?
For a normal home wall, yes. The strength comes from the footing, the drainage and the way the blocks lock together, not from mortar. Taller walls get geogrid tied back into the fill behind them.
How high can a modular wall go?
Higher than most people need. Past about knee height your council will likely want an application, and past roughly a metre it usually wants engineering. We check both before quoting.
Do the colours fade?
The colour runs through the block rather than sitting on the surface, so it holds up well in the Perth sun. Expect it to soften slightly in the first year and then stay put.
