Besser block is one of the most searched retaining wall materials in Melbourne, and Naxan Renovations builds besser block retaining walls for homes across Truganina and the western suburbs. Besser block (a hollow concrete block) is a popular choice for retaining walls because it’s strong, cost-effective, and can be reinforced and filled for extra durability on taller or load-bearing walls.
Why homeowners choose besser block:
| Wall Type | Best Suited To | Key Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Besser block | Taller or load-bearing walls, cost-conscious builds | Can be reinforced and rendered for finish |
| Timber | Natural garden aesthetic, smaller walls | Requires treated timber and periodic maintenance |
| Concrete sleeper | Durable mid-height walls | Low maintenance, strong lifespan |
| Natural stone | Premium, landscaped garden settings | Higher cost, distinctive natural finish |

Whether a retaining wall needs a permit in Victoria depends mainly on its height and location relative to boundaries — we assess this as part of every consultation. Generally, taller walls, walls near boundaries, or walls supporting significant load are more likely to require council or building approval, while smaller walls may be exempt depending on your specific council.
For official guidance, refer to the Victorian Building Authority or your local council’s planning department.
Naxan Renovations builds retaining walls in line with relevant Australian standards for structural safety and drainage. Proper engineering matters more for retaining walls than most other landscaping work, since a poorly built wall can fail, shift, or cause drainage problems on your property. We factor structural requirements, drainage and, where needed, engineering input into every retaining wall project.

A well-built retaining wall using quality materials and correct drainage can last for decades. Lifespan depends on material choice, construction quality, and site conditions.
Retaining walls hold back soil on sloped or tiered sites, preventing erosion and creating usable, level areas in a garden or yard.
In many cases, yes — this depends on the condition and construction of the existing wall. We assess this during a site visit.
Maintenance depends on the material used. Timber walls need periodic treatment and inspection; besser block and concrete walls generally need less upkeep but should be checked for drainage issues over time.
