Thanks Chris for removing and replacing our old retaining wall. A job well done. Chris’s suggestion of using the patterned concrete sleepers was a stoke of genius! Our yard now looks neat and tidy. Highly recommend CMD for a quality outcome at a reasonable price.

I very highly recommend CMD. Chris turned our dilapidated wreck of a 2 tier back yard after having recently removed a 10 year old coffee tree plantation into a great useable space. Our initial key considerations were reliability and communication and Chris delivered beyond our expectations. He was also considerate in adapting to a personal situation that made it easier for us all round.

Had CMD take away a lot of earth and build a concrete sleeper wall then prep for concrete slab, they were on time & budget very happy with our new area.
