Costs of Timber Retaining Walls Sunshine Coast and Surrounding Areas
When considering the installation of timber retaining walls on the Sunshine Coast, there are many factors that affect how much it will cost.
Size and height requirements as well as drainage and excavation can play an important role when calculating price estimations.
Generally, costs range from $350 to around $550 per square metre depending on materials used for construction.
To work out a general price multiply the length of your retaining wall by the average height, this will give you square metres. Then multiply metres squared by the cost per m2 we have given you. Please note this is a very general price.
We apologise for such a general cost but every wall has its own issues and should be quoted by one of the selected contractors. That way, you know you are getting an exact quote.
