Professional Gabion Wall Builder In Brisbane
Gabion walls are the best option for controlling river erosion and coastal management because the rise of sea levels increases coastal communities’ risk. Our gabion wall builder in Brisbane has successfully installed gabions for commercial, industrial and residential projects.
At Australian Construction, we use the PoliMac coated wire mesh to build Gabion walls which is among the few construction materials that withstand very corrosive marine surroundings.
Gabion walls have added benefit over outdated construction materials like concrete because they are solid, preventing them from being washed away.
Gabions are flexible and permeable enough to adapt to ground movement and they slow and dissipate the water flow.
Rock walls
For any landscaping project, gabion presents the best garden walls. They are beneficial because they are simple to build and look fabulous. We use various materials and rocks to make a gabion wall exceptional.
It is helpful to break up sections of the park or garden into separate areas. Our competent team can build a low wall (1m or less) to coil around a seating area, for instance. It is also excellent for acoustic walls when we use sound absorption materials within the wall with rocks on the exterior.
Retaining walls
Traditionally, we have used gabion for retaining walls because it is more affordable compared to modern methods. We build them as mass gravity walls that depend on the rock’s weight for earth retention or as mechanically stabilised walls that use earth anchors or geo-grids to make the wall stable.
Columns and cladding
The Australian Construction architectural gabions are ideal for cladding on an unattractive concrete column and façade. We can build them to a 200mm depth. Usually, it is built at the front of hex mesh or woven gabion, which is affordable but unattractive.
When our gabion wall builder in Brisbane builds an architectural gabion entrance in front of a saggy woven wall, it can save you costs and give you a lovely looking building or wall.
