The Bowling Group team have experienced personnel and the specialist machinery to help you with your next retaining need across the Steve Bowling Contracting, GHK Piling and Pole Structures businesses. Whether it be for aesthetic reasons, or structural reasons, we can carry out retaining jobs of any size. We use small 2T excavators which can access small hard to reach areas like behind houses, through to 25T excavators for major site work or slip repairs.
Whether your retaining walls will be made of timber pole, steel pole, gabion basket, mass rock, concrete pile and shotcrete, or proprietary mass blocks such as Keystone or Allan Block. The type of wall will depend on a combination of the ground conditions and the load retained by the wall along with the desired aesthetic outcome, whether they will be precast, ground anchors, palisade walls or any other retaining solution.
Due to our extensive experience, we are familiar with the ground conditions in many of the local Northland and Auckland areas and the challenges that may arise. This means we are able to assist with input into materials, design and methodologies to get the solution that best suits your application.
Our team can offer advice on how best to tackle your individual situation and also assist you with engineering and council consents. With over 20 year’s experience in retaining projects, we’re your local experts.
If required for stability, retaining walls can be tied back using either grouted ground anchors, proprietary post tensioned anchors or ‘deadman’ anchors: all of which our team have extensive experience in the installation of. Steel sheet piling driven with an electric or hydraulic vibrating hammer is another of our specialist retaining construction areas.
