Retaining Walls in Dublin

Plenty of gardens in Dublin slope away from the house. A retaining wall holds back the higher ground so a patio, lawn or wider drive can sit level in front of it.

Retaining walls in Dublin and around Dún Laoghaire, Tallaght, Finglas and Clondalkin are built on dug and concreted footings, course by course, with drainage behind so water does not build up against them.

How It Works

How a Retaining Wall Is Built

  1. Look at the Slope

    We check the height of the ground to be held back and agree where the wall runs.

  2. Dig the Footing

    A trench is dug along the line of the wall and filled with concrete for a solid footing.

  3. Build the Wall

    The wall is built course by course, with drainage placed behind it as it rises.

  4. Backfill & Finish

    The ground behind is backfilled and the wall is capped or rendered to suit the house.

  5. Final Check Together

    We review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

Rainwater collects in the soil behind the wall. Without drainage it adds weight and pressure, which can push a wall out of line over time.

Yes. Block retaining walls can be rendered or capped to match the house or the rest of the garden.
