Retaining Walls in Highton

Engineered concrete retaining walls for Highton homeowners and builders. Sloping blocks levelled, split-level sites held, structural walls built to engineering specs. Quotes back within 24 hours.

Retaining Walls, Built for Highton's Terrain

Highton sits on the rise above the Barwon River, and it is the most genuinely sloping suburb in Geelong. Split-level houses, stepped driveways and terraced back yards are everywhere here, which means a retaining wall is often not a nice-to-have but the thing that makes the block usable at all.

Select Civil Group is based a few minutes away in Geelong and works across Highton and Wandana Heights regularly. On this kind of ground the wall height, the drainage behind it and the engineering are the whole job, so we build to specs rather than to a rule of thumb.

Wall, Slab and Site Services for Highton Projects

The four services Highton homeowners and builders pair most often. Every job is quoted on the specifics of your site.

How a Highton Job Runs

Quote to handover, the same six steps on every job. No surprises, no scope creep, no chasing for updates.

Step 01

Enquiry

Send the site address, a quick description of the work, and any plans or photos you have. The more we know, the sharper the quote.

Step 02

Site Walk

For larger jobs, we visit the block to check access, soil, levels and obstacles the photos don't show. Most quotes come back within 24 hours.

Step 03

Fixed Quote

Itemised, written, and locked in. Spoil cartage, disposal and machinery are accounted for so there are no surprises at the end.

Step 04

Programmed Start

Confirmed start and finish dates that we hold to. We coordinate with your builder, engineer, or following trades so the ground is ready when they are.

Step 05

On Site

Machine and operator on the ground, working to your engineer's specs. Daily check-ins with whoever is coordinating the build.

Step 06

Handover

Final levels checked, site cleaned, and your site is ready for the next stage. We are still a phone call away if something comes up later.

Frequently Asked

The questions we get most from Highton homeowners and builders.

Yes. Highton, Wandana Heights, Newtown, Belmont, Grovedale, Waurn Ponds, Geelong, Ceres, Barrabool and the surrounding area are all within our regular service area. We are based minutes away in Geelong.

Wall cost depends on length, height, soil retained, drainage requirements and access. A short garden wall is a different job to a structural wall holding a building platform. We give an obligation-free quote within 24 hours once we have the site details.

Most residential retaining walls take three to seven working days from site set-up through to clean-up, depending on length, height and the engineering involved. Larger structural walls and tiered solutions can run longer. We confirm a programmed start and finish date as part of the quote.

Either works. For straightforward residential walls we can recommend an engineer we have worked with locally and coordinate the design. If you already have an engineer or builder running the project, we work to their specifications and drawings.

We work across residential, commercial and civil projects. For homeowners and small builders that is everything from a single retaining wall or driveway through to a full site cut and slab. For larger projects we partner with builders, developers and contractors across the Bellarine and Geelong region.

Yes. Select Civil Group carries full public liability insurance and workers compensation cover on every job. Certificates of currency are available on request.
