Timber, block or gabion retaining, built to hold — for driveways, boundaries and building platforms across Nelson-Tasman's sloping sections.
Nelson-Tasman's hill suburbs and coastal sections come with slopes, cuts and boundaries that need holding back properly. D&R Works builds retaining walls for driveways, building platforms, boundary lines and erosion-prone banks — matched to the ground conditions on your specific site, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Daniel and the crew have spent 15+ years reading Nelson-Tasman soil and slope conditions, from clay-heavy hill sections to sandy coastal ground. That local knowledge shapes what type of wall we recommend and how we build it to last.
Cost-effective and a good fit for garden, boundary and lower-height retaining. Built with treated timber poles and sleepers sized to the wall's height and load.
Concrete block retaining for driveways, building platforms and higher loads, where extra strength and a tidier finished look matter.
Rock-filled gabion baskets for erosion control, drainage-friendly retaining, and sites where a more natural, permeable wall suits the landscape.
Timber retaining wall built into a sloping section, backfilled and ready for planting.
Capped retaining wall built to hold a steep bank, with fixings ready for the deck above.
Retaining wall and concrete pad built together to square up a sloping driveway.
