I highly recommend Pary and the APT team for their exceptional work building my new fence and retaining wall. They were professional, friendly, and maintained great communication throughout the entire project. The quality of the workmanship is top-notch, and the pricing was incredibly fair for the work provided. I couldn't be happier with the results!

Thank you APT Build Group for being so efficient and professional. I called other local companies for quotes, but Pary was one of the very few people who was professional and had great communication with us. Everyone got the job done much faster than we expected and we are very happy with the retaining wall and Colorbond fence. I definitely recommend APT Build Group for retaining walls and fencing. Thank you!

Thank you Pary for an excellent job building our retaining wall with an attached Colourbond fence. Your discussions with us were open and your knowledge of wall / fence building is very obvious. We appreciate your team staying focussed on getting the job completed in the time frame quoted during your initial visit. The cleanup of our yard was wonderful. Highly recommend your skilled work.

I would highly recommend Pary to anyone wanting a quality retaining wall. His work is of a high standard. He is reliable and a good communicator and he and his workers were respectful to deal with and know what they are doing and it shows in the quality of their work.

We are both very happy with the finished product that Pary and his team completed (concrete retaining wall and colour bond fence)in early 2025. In my dealings with Pary he is very approachable and listened to what the customer needs were and also offered suggestions. His workmanship is top quality. Shortly after the job was completed Cyclone Alfred arrived which brought with it a high amount of rain and wind. We had no issues with both the wall or fence. If you want someone you can trust to do a good job at a reasonable price, then I would recommend Pary and his team. Many of our family and friends have commented after seeing our wall that the workmanship was very professional. Ross Calamvale

FAQs

Questions? Answered.

Yes, retaining walls usually require approval if they are over 1 metre high, located near a boundary, or support a structure above. For anything under 1 metre and not load-bearing, approval may not be needed. We assess each project and help manage approvals where required.

Council approval in Queensland typically takes 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the complexity of the project and the local council’s workload. We can assist with preparing and submitting all required documents.

Concrete sleeper walls are our most popular choice for strength and longevity and can be built up to 3 metres high. Timber suits gardens and tiered landscapes, and link block is a decorative option for walls up to 1 metre.

Yes. Concrete sleeper retaining walls are suitable for fence integration directly on top, a popular combination with Colorbond fencing.

Yes. APT Build Group is QBCC licensed and fully insured, with more than 15 years of experience.
