Services

Services provided by Retaining Wall Engineers are designed to support homeowners, builders and commercial clients across Queensland with certified retaining wall design, inspections and compliance documentation. Our engineering services ensure that every retaining wall meets structural standards, local council requirements and best-practice construction guidelines. We tailor all services to suit your site’s soil conditions, slope, drainage behaviour and overall project needs.

Our services begin with detailed structural retaining wall design. This includes engineering plans, material specifications and all documentation required for approval and construction. We design timber, concrete sleeper, block and composite retaining wall systems, ensuring long-term stability and full compliance with Queensland regulations. Each design is created to suit the unique requirements of both residential and commercial sites.

Inspection services are available for new and existing retaining walls. Our engineers conduct structural assessments, site measurements and compliance reviews to confirm that walls are safe, stable and constructed according to engineering standards. These services are ideal for property owners preparing for resale, addressing council notices or verifying contractor workmanship.

Our compliance services include the preparation of Form 15 (design certification) and Form 12 (construction compliance). These documents are often required by council or private certifiers and must be completed by a qualified engineer. We ensure all retaining wall certifications are accurate, properly documented and delivered with fast turnaround times.

Whether you need structural design, inspection services or engineering certification, Retaining Wall Engineers provides reliable professional support across Brisbane, Ipswich, Logan, the Gold Coast and surrounding regions. If you are unsure which services apply to your project, our team can guide you through the process and outline the requirements for your site.

For official retaining wall guidelines, you can also refer to the Queensland Development Code (QDC) β€” specifically NMP 1.7 – Retaining Walls and Excavation and Filling.
