Retaining walls for residential projects
We regularly support housing schemes, basement additions and extensions with robust retaining wall systems. Our in-house team works with developers, contractors and engineers to deliver space-maximising, regulation-compliant solutions for every type of home build.
We handle the full scope from design to install, including retaining walls and access-restricted sites.
Common residential applications include:
- Retaining walls for basement excavations
- Earth retention on split-level plots
- Garden and boundary walls in sloped terrain
Retaining walls for commercial projects
From car parks to cut-and-fill sites, our retaining wall systems help commercial builds progress safely and efficiently. We work to tight timelines and across varied site conditions with precision and consistency.
Whether it’s a large office development or a high street retail unit, we design walls that meet structural demands and speed up groundworks.
We regularly support commercial builds, including:
- Retaining structures for underground car parks
- Earth retention on constrained urban plots
- Support for deep foundations and lift pits
Retaining walls for ports & harbours
We support large-scale civil engineering and marine projects with high-performance retaining walls. These structures help resist heavy loads, tidal forces and water ingress on complex sites.
Our team brings deep experience in marine environments, offering dependable designs and complete delivery from concept to installation.
Our marine piling expertise includes:
- Quay and port wall construction
- Coastal and embankment reinforcement
- Long-span retaining walls for logistics and energy builds

Advanced installation process
Our installation process uses modern rigs equipped with Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) instrumentation. This technology monitors key parameters such as pile depth, penetration rate, drill resistance, concreting pressure, and extraction rate, which allows for efficient control throughout the installation process.
More about Retaining wall piling
Foundation piling isn’t one-size-fits-all. Different ground conditions and load requirements call for different techniques. Whether you’re building a home, commercial property, or infrastructure project, a solid foundation is non-negotiable. We provide engineered piling solutions that keep your structure stable, safe, and compliant.
CFA (continuous flight auger) piles
CFA piling is a low-noise, vibration-free method where concrete is pumped through a hollow auger as it’s withdrawn. Excellent for loose soils or sites near sensitive structures.
SFA (sectional flight auger) piles
Pre-cast concrete piles
Steel tubular piles
Sheet piling
Sheet piles are interlocking steel sections driven into the ground for earth retention or excavation support. Used for basements, cofferdams, flood defense, and permanent or temporary wall systems.
End-to-end in-house capability
We manage every stage of the process from within our own facilities.
Design
Site-specific plans developed by in-house engineers using real-world data and experience.
