FAQ
What is a gabion retaining wall?
A gabion retaining wall is constructed using wire mesh cages filled with rocks, stone or rubble. These structures provide strong erosion control, soil retention and drainage, making them ideal for sloped or flood-prone areas. Gabions are commonly used in landscaping, roadwork, and architectural projects because they combine structural performance with a rugged, natural aesthetic. Their open structure allows water to pass through, reducing hydrostatic pressure and minimising the risk of failure. Gabion walls are especially effective in areas where water flow or poor soil stability is a concern. They’re also a popular choice for environmentally friendly projects due to their permeability and use of natural materials.
What are the advantages of gabion walls?
Gabion walls offer a unique combination of strength, flexibility and sustainability. They’re highly durable and can absorb movement from ground shifts or water flow without cracking, unlike rigid concrete walls. Their porous structure promotes natural drainage, which helps reduce water pressure behind the wall and prevents erosion. Gabions also have a raw, natural look that suits modern, industrial or rustic landscape designs. They require minimal maintenance and can be filled with local rock or recycled materials, reducing costs and environmental impact. Installation is relatively straightforward, and their modular nature makes them easy to adjust or repair if needed over time.
Are gabion walls suitable for residential use?
Yes, gabion retaining walls are an excellent option for residential landscaping. They’re ideal for defining outdoor zones, controlling erosion, supporting garden beds or creating visual interest. Their natural look blends well with native plantings, rock features and modern architecture. Gabions are highly adaptable and can be built in curved, stepped or terraced designs to suit your space. They’re especially useful on sloped blocks or in areas with poor drainage. While commonly seen in civil engineering projects, smaller-scale gabion walls are becoming increasingly popular in home gardens due to their rustic style, strength and low maintenance requirements.
