Why Concrete Sleepers?
Most people do not think about the longevity of a product when building a retaining wall. Flooding and erosion are great problems for properties in Melbourne, and the best way to combat it is with a well-landscaped yard with retaining walls in designated areas. A concrete sleeper retaining wall lasts about three times more than any other type of product such as timber. Timber retaining walls may be cheaper in the short term, but they do not last long. Timber retaining walls often succumb to damage from water and termites.
A concrete sleeper retaining wall is constructed by putting precast concrete sleepers into steel posts fixed into the ground. Retaining walls made of these help reduce the risk of flooding and erosion. They also greatly contribute to the entire design and layout of your property. When you are considering improvements to your property, you need to ensure you use only the best products available in the market. We offer long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing retaining wall sleepers Melbourne that will be a valuable addition to your property.
What are the Benefits of Concrete Sleeper Retaining Walls?
Concrete has unique characteristics that make it a perfect material for retaining walls. They offer high strength, withstand temperature change and have high surface toughness. They are the most commonly recommended material for retaining walls due to their load-bearing capabilities.
Concrete sleepers can last for several decades. They are far superior to timber sleepers as they do not buckle, deform or crack when exposed to extreme weather conditions such as heat and rain.
Concrete is a material and is not susceptible to fire, making them the safe choice for bushfire prone areas.
No other sleepers offer years of guaranteed services without any repair. Concrete sleepers require little to no maintenance and will look as great as new for years to come.
Unlike wood that gets affected by termites and insects, concrete sleepers are made of natural materials that are safe from such infestations.
Precast concrete sleepers retaining walls are much easier and cheaper to install compared to other labour-intensive masonry structures.
Concrete sleeper retaining walls are non-toxic and do not contain any dangerous chemicals.
To enjoy all of their benefits, you need to choose high-quality concrete sleepers. That’s why we offer a full range of concrete sleepers in different sizes and colours that would fit in perfectly with the design of your outdoor space.
Do You Supply Retaining Wall Steel Posts?
Yes, we do. If you are considering building a retaining wall, using galvanized steel retaining wall posts is the only way to go. We provide high quality galvanized steel posts in different lengths that are suitable for walls from 200mm till up to 3m. These do not deteriorate with time, last many years in the ground, hold up your retaining wall and keep it sturdy for many years to come.
Calculate the size of the retaining wall steel Melbourne posts properly, or our experts can help you with it. As a rule of thumb, the height of the retaining wall is how deep the posts will sink into the ground. To calculate the height of the steel posts, we take the planned height of the wall and double it. Make sure to order your retaining wall steel posts well in advance.
If you are looking for strong and durable metal retaining wall posts for a small retaining wall in the garden or an extensive retaining wall in your yard, we have you covered. These, along with our premium concrete sleepers, will make your retaining wall superior and will stand the test of time.

How to Build a Precast Concrete Sleeper Retaining Wall
Are you planning a DIY project? Installing a retaining wall on your boundary will help you maximize the usable space. If you are looking to save money, we can guide you through building a concrete sleeper retaining wall.
Using concrete sleepers for your retaining wall makes the process extremely easy. It is a great option for DIY. We can offer you advice on the phone and help you achieve a straight and pleasing installation.
Following are the 5 steps to concrete sleeper retaining wall –
- Lay the bottom row of the concrete sleepers and put a string line around the perimeter of the area. Ensure you have a space of about 200mm behind the wall, which is needed for backfilling.
- If you are using steel posts, they should be installed in the middle of each of the sleepers. Mark the position where the posts will go and dig holes equal to the height of the wall you are building.
- Now, pour concrete into the holes and insert the steel posts. Ensure they are level and the posts lean back to at least 30mm for every 1 metre of wall height.
- Once the concrete has cured, lay down the sleepers around them to build up the retaining wall. You can add as many layers as you want.
- After a week, pour soil or gravel against the slope.
