Professional Burbank Acreage Landscaping and Retaining Walls

Burbank properties often involve larger sites, varied elevations and open ground that needs to be properly structured before it becomes usable. On acreage sites, landscaping tends to go beyond surface work and into how the land is shaped, supported and accessed.
 
Aesthetic Landscape & Retaining Walls provides landscaping services in Burbank suited to these conditions. Each project is planned around the size of the property, the slope of the land and how different areas are intended to function once complete.
 
For many acreage properties, the priority is not just appearance. It is about building something that holds its structure over time while still working with the layout of the site.

Retaining Walls and Structural Groundwork

Retaining walls are a common requirement in Burbank, particularly where levels need to be adjusted or stabilised through excavation and retaining. On larger sites, these structures often carry more load and need to be built with that in mind.
 
We construct retaining walls in Burbank that are suited to both the scale and the conditions of the property. The approach can vary depending on height, soil type and intended use.
 
In most cases:

  • Concrete retaining walls are used where higher strength and long-term durability are required
  • Timber retaining walls may be suitable for lower sections or specific residential layouts

As part of structural landscaping in Burbank, drainage is built into the system rather than treated as an afterthought. This helps prevent water build-up that can weaken the structure over time. Engineering and council approvals are managed as part of the process, particularly for larger acreage walls.

Landscape Construction for Acreage Properties

On acreage properties, layout plays a bigger role than individual features. Open areas need to be defined, access needs to be planned, and surfaces need to be handled for regular use.

Aesthetic Landscape & Retaining Walls carries out landscape construction in Burbank with a focus on making large spaces more practical without overcomplicating the design.

This often includes:

  • Steppers for outdoor living areas across Burbank properties
  • Stepper pathways to connect different sections of the property
  • Preparation of the ground for future landscaping stages

Machinery access is also considered from the beginning. On larger sites, the ability to move equipment efficiently can affect both the timeline and the outcome of the work.
 
For acreage landscaping in Burbank, planning around access and staging is just as important as the construction itself.

Fencing, Boundaries and Site Layout

Fencing is usually installed alongside other structural work, especially on properties where boundaries or access points need to be clearly defined. We install timber, colourbond and aluminium fencing and gates at Burbank as part of a complete landscaping scope. This ensures that fences align with retaining walls, levels and overall site layout.
 
On acreage properties, fencing also plays a role in managing how the land is used. Entry points, internal divisions and access routes are all considered when positioning gates and fence lines.
 
Bringing these elements together during the same project helps avoid inconsistencies between different parts of the site.

If you are planning landscaping work in Burbank or need guidance on managing a larger property, you can contact Aesthetic Landscape & Retaining Walls to discuss your project or request a tailored quote.

FAQ

Like all construction costs – Prices vary and are dependent upon several things.
Costs vary depending on the materials used, labour price and wall size. 
To build a retaining wall, starting costs are approx $350/sq metre. The site and materials are also taken into consideration
Please request a quote so we can give you an accurate price

City Council approval may be necessary to ensure the public’s safety and the environment.
A retaining wall under 1 metre should not require approval UNLESS there is an overlay on the land eg bushfires, wetlands, heritage
Local City Council (LCC) approval may be necessary to ensure the public’s safety and the environment.
It is always best to speak to us and we can advise you the steps to take so that your retaining wall can be approved and built without council headaches.

Retaining walls are not classed as fences under the Neighbourhood Disputes Resolution Act 2011.
They are built to ensure that excavated soil is kept in place. They are typically not shared in costs as one neighbour benegfits from a retaining wall more than the other. If there is confustion or a dispute QCAT may need to be involved to settle the dispute.

Neat and tidy job, team were efficient and professional. Happy to answer questions. Felt confident going with Aesthetic Landscapes to build retaining wall and fence, after previous fence contractors badly let us down. Thank you Rod, Barry and team. Debbie

Rodney from Aesthetic Landscapes and Retaining Walls did a great job retaining a large amount of fill that was brought onto my 1 into 2 Lot subdivision in Wynnum West. I greatly appreciated Rod’s communication and advice on the project and his ability to work in with Brent from Ronmac to get the job completed quickly at a busy time for all just before the Christmas/New Years period. Highly recommend!

I recently had Rodney from Aesthetic Landscapes & Retaining Walls Pty Ltd come out to inspect some water issues on my property, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the experience. From the moment he arrived, it was clear that he was extremely knowledgeable and professional. Rodney took the time to thoroughly assess the situation, explaining everything clearly and providing a range of practical suggestions to address the problem. His attention to detail and understanding of drainage and landscaping solutions were outstanding. I really appreciated how honest and helpful the advice was — there was no pressure, just genuine expertise and a clear desire to help find the best outcome. It’s rare to find such a combination of professionalism, knowledge, and customer care. I would highly recommend Aesthetic Landscapes & Retaining Walls Pty Ltd to anyone needing expert advice or landscaping solutions. An absolute pleasure to deal with!

From the moment Rod sets foot on your property you know this guy is a "Real professional" After 4 builders who clearly were not up for the challenge Rod and his team brought a solution orientated attitude to a difficult job. I was well informed of every step of the process and the team worked extremely hard every day in the heat to deliver a solution that was 100% exactly what Rod said it would be. Every one of them were so well mannered, polite, and respectful and a real pleasure to heave round our property. My wife and I are over the moon with the finished product and it was delivered by a team of real professionals. Get these guys round your place and you will not be disappointed. Thanks Rod you have installed my dwindling faith back in the building game.

Best in the business! My husband and I inherited a 30 year old, 30m long timber retaining wall when we bought our home in Wishart. It was failing and a complete mess, not to mention a serious safety hazard. It was also across services, in between 2 pools (ours and our neighbour’s), and higher than 1m. We had several builders inspect the job and none of them were up to the challenge until we met Rodney. He promptly quoted the job and expertly explained the process of the build (it was our first time building a retaining wall). His team completed the job in 8 days and worked incredibly hard to deliver us a spectacular wall and fence that will last forever. They were extremely professional and friendly and left our yard clean and tidy after each day. They also completed some additional excavation works to assist us in future renovations. Nothing was too hard or a problem. Our new wall and fence is the talk of the street and we are thrilled with how it looks.
