Living on a hillside in Wellington has its perks—amazing views, fresh air, and the sense of privacy you just don’t get in the city. But with those perks came a serious landscaping challenge: our section was sliding. Literally.
After a few years of seasonal erosion and watching our fence slowly lean with each heavy rain, we finally decided to address the issue properly and get a retaining wall built. We reached out to several landscaping companies, but the team at Timberland Scapes stood out straight away.
From the beginning, they took the time to assess not just the erosion issue, but the overall layout of our property. They provided a solution that wasn’t just functional—it was a beautifully integrated feature that added to our outdoor space rather than taking away from it.
The wall they built wasn’t just a fix—it was a transformation. They used high-quality materials and designed it in tiers, which allowed us to add native planting and even a small herb garden. It’s now one of the standout features of our property.
What impressed us most was how thorough Timberland Scapes was with engineering and drainage. It’s clear they don’t cut corners. And thanks to their smart planning, we now have a secure, attractive structure that we know will stand the test of time.
If you're dealing with any kind of sloping section or soil movement, I can't stress this enough: don’t wait until it gets worse. Call Timberland Scapes. Their retaining wall expertise saved our property (and probably our sanity).
