Hello @renukumar
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's wonderful to have you join us and thank you for sharing your question about remodelling your backyard with a high retaining wall.
Would it be possible for you to post a photo of the area you are planning to revamp? Can you also please tell us how high do you estimate the retaining wall will be? This will give our members a chance to assess the condition of your garden. we can then make recommendations on how to proceed.
One of the first stops I recommend making is your local council. I suggest checking the rules and regulations regarding the height restrictions of a retaining wall in your area. The council will probably require that you use a registered trade to build your retaining wall if it goes past a certain height. The next important thing to consider is drainage, your retaining wall will definitely have a form of drainage in it, so it's important that the water it collects has a way out of your garden.
While waiting for your photos, I suggest having a look at our Top 10 most popular garden makeovers.
I also recommend reading this guide - How to give your garden a makeover by @Adam_W. It should give you a very good idea of what to consider when planning your garden makeover.
Here are some Featured Garden projects our Workshop members have shared:
