Gabion Retaining Walls
Gabion retaining walls provide durable erosion control and land stabilisation solutions. Our expertise includes designing and installing welded mesh and woven wire systems for river control, canal refurbishment, and landscaping projects. With flexible composition accommodating differential settlement, these structures prevent hydrostatic pressure buildup while supporting vegetation growth. We deliver both small-scale domestic projects and large infrastructure developments across the UK.
Reinforced Earth Works
Our reinforced earth solutions create stable retaining structures for infrastructure projects. Specialising in bridge abutments and residential developments, we combine technical analysis with practical implementation. Services include site surveys, structural design to British standards, and installation guidance. Recent projects demonstrate our capability in both urban and remote locations, ensuring long-term stability for transportation corridors and housing developments.

Highly professional, on time, on budget. Went to JML with a complex infrastructure project after an appalling proposal from a leading Perth engineering firm. John from JML provided 3 fully costed solutions to choose from looking at green vs engineered solutions. The job was started and completed on time. Found all staff very professional. Good at troubleshooting as they went along and liaising with council roads departments. Would highly recommend this firm. Will certainly use them again.

JML Contracts carried out extensive landscaping works for our garden which consisted of a decorative Hardie Plank faced retaining barrier, stone walling, sliding gate , creation of a paving area and a raised decking area. We couldnt recommend them enough professional, reliable and very skilled at what they do. The finished job was excellent and even a year on still looks stunning. We particularly liked that they started and completed the job on dates promised and that their team from project manager to labourers were very polite, efficient and tidied away everything at the end of each day

The JML Contracts team are professional and hard working and did a great job of our foundations before their JML SIPs team came to erect our SIPs home. I would definitely recommend them.

JML Contracts carried out all the groundworks for our SIPs family home which was supplied and erected by JML SIPs. It was great that we were able to use one company for both services which allowed it to be seamless, cost effective and stress free.
