About retaining walls
Retaining walls hold back soil on sloping blocks and use timber sleepers, concrete blocks or natural stone, with drainage behind the wall to stop water pressure building up. Walls over a certain height often need engineering and council approval. Ask whether approval and drainage are included.
Getting quotes in Burnside
Before booking a landscaper for retaining walls, ask whether the price includes GST, callout and materials, and get it in writing. The quoting spread between operators in the same suburb is bigger than most people expect, which is exactly why comparing pays.

Quick answers
How much does landscaping cost?+
Small garden makeovers often start around $2,000 to $5,000, a mid-size project with paving and planting is commonly $10,000 to $30,000, and full backyard transformations with structures run higher. The biggest variables are hard surfaces, retaining and site access.
How much does it cost to lay turf?+
Supplied and laid turf typically runs $12 to $25 per square metre depending on the variety and how much prep the site needs. A standard backyard lawn often lands between $1,500 and $4,000 including soil prep. Poor prep is the main reason new turf fails.
Do I need council approval for a retaining wall?+
Many councils require approval for retaining walls above a set height, often around one metre, and walls near boundaries or affecting drainage may need engineering. Rules vary by council, so ask your landscaper to confirm before building. Building without approval can be costly to fix.
