Strong retaining walls start well before the first block is laid.

The real strength of any retaining wall is in the foundation. Whether you’re a DIY’er tackling a backyard project or a landscaper managing a full site build, getting the base right is what prevents movement, cracking, and costly repairs down the track.

A solid foundation typically starts with properly compacted crushed rock or road base. This creates a stable, load-bearing platform that distributes weight evenly and reduces shifting over time. From there, drainage is key. Installing adequate drainage material such as aggregate behind the wall helps relieve water pressure; one of the biggest causes of wall failure. Geofabric can also be used to separate soil from drainage material, keeping everything working as it should.

Cutting corners below ground might save time upfront, but it can cost you later. Solid prep, proper compaction, and quality materials are what keep retaining walls standing strong for years to come.

Healthy plants start with the right foundation. Potting mix is specially designed for plants growing in pots and containers, making it the right choice for indoor plants, outdoor planters, hanging baskets, raised garden beds, and herb or veggie seedlings. Unlike regular garden soil, potting mix provides the drainage, airflow, and nutrient balance needed in confined spaces to support strong, healthy root growth.

When choosing between standard and premium potting mix, it comes down to your project and plant needs. Standard potting mix is a great all-rounder; ideal for general planting, seasonal colour, and filling multiple pots. It’s budget-friendly and contains basic nutrients to help plants establish well.

Premium potting mix, on the other hand, contains higher-quality ingredients with improved moisture retention and drainage balance, plus added slow-release fertilisers for longer-lasting nutrition. It’s the better option for feature pots, advanced plants, and long-term plantings where stronger growth and lower maintenance matter.

Choosing the right mix makes all the difference; better roots, healthier plants, and longer-lasting results. Not sure which one suits your project? We’re happy to help.

At Soilworx, a key point of difference for us is our soil recycling capability. We work closely with residential and commercial developers, landscapers, and parks and gardens teams to accept clean fill material, then put it through a careful process of amelioration, rescreening, and blending to give it a second life.

It’s a practical, hands-on approach that reduces landfill, supports circular resource use, and keeps valuable soil in circulation across the industry. In fact, we divert over 200,000m³ of soil from landfill every year.

We accept clean fill material (from ten tonnes through to thousands of tonnes) at our facilities in Pakenham and Ardeer. We can also assist with sourcing suitable disposal options for inert waste, contaminated soils, and other waste streams where required.
Please note: Clean Fill certificates must be provided prior to acceptance.

If you’re ordering bulk materials for your home or job site, knowing how to calculate a cubic meter can save you time and money.

How to calculate a cubic meter (m³): It’s simple
Length (m) × Width (m) × Height (m) = Volume (m³)
For example: 2m × 1m × 0.5m = 1 cubic meter

That’s it!

Whether you're ordering sand, soil, gravel, or mulch, calculating your volume correctly helps avoid over-ordering or coming up short.

Not sure about the math? No problem. Our easy-to-use Volume Calculator on our website does it for you in seconds. Just enter your measurements and get an instant result.
Visit our website today and try the Volume Calculator before placing your next order. Get the right amount delivered the first time.
