A retaining wall is a structure designed to hold back soil and prevent erosion, typically made from materials like concrete, timber or brick. A retaining rock wall, however, is specifically constructed using natural stones, such as sandstone or bluestone. Retaining rock walls offer the same functional benefits as other retaining walls but add a natural aesthetic appeal that blends seamlessly with the landscape, making them a popular choice for both residential and commercial properties.

Retaining rock walls are highly effective at controlling erosion, particularly on sloped or uneven terrain. The weight and stability of the rocks hold back soil and prevent it from being washed away by rain or wind. Additionally, these walls can be designed with proper drainage systems to redirect water flow, reducing the risk of soil erosion and ensuring the long-term stability of the landscape.

Retaining rock walls are generally low-maintenance but should be inspected regularly for any signs of movement, settling or cracks. Vegetation should be kept clear of the wall to prevent roots from destabilising the structure. Additionally, ensuring proper drainage is crucial to prevent water buildup behind the wall, which can increase pressure and lead to potential damage. Regular maintenance helps preserve the wall's structural integrity and aesthetic appeal over time.
