Honest fence comparison
Tilt-Up Speed, With a Far Nicer Finish
A tilt-up panel fence goes up quickly, but it is a large, plain slab with a flat back. Our precast walls install just as fast, look far better profiled on both sides, and take a capping far more easily.
Customer Reviews
“Looks stunning. Started punctual on the agreed date and completed it within the timeframe specified. Fence straight, plumb, banter of the street - happy I went the stacked stone!”
Mark Bradley
“Greg was amazing to deal with, nothing was too much trouble. I have a fabulous fence that I will have for many, many years. I have no hesitation in recommending Greg or his excellent business.”
Kym Hudson
“This Wall concept is amazing. I could not believe how fast our fence went up! Greg and his team did a great job negotiating our steep sloping block. The end result exceeded our expectation, we even added a secure parcel post box. We have now painted the wall which looks even better. I am confident the investment is reflected in our increased property value.”

Tilt-up is a sensible idea: cast a big concrete panel, crane it into place, and you have a wall in a hurry. The convenience is real, and it is the same convenience our system gives you. The difference is in the result. A tilt-up panel is a large, flat slab, usually finished on one side only, and it is awkward to dress up. After decades building boundary walls across Brisbane and the Gold Coast, here is how our precast walls give you that same speed with a far better finish.
The same speed, a wall you are proud of
Tilt-up panels vs Superior Concrete Walls
Both are precast and craned in. Here is where they differ on the things you live with afterwards.
| Factor | Tilt-up panels | Superior Concrete Walls |
|---|---|---|
| Finish | A large flat panel, usually a good face one side | Profiled on both sides, the same finish front and back |
| Look | Plain slab appearance | Moulded profile with column detail and finish options |
| Speed on site | Fast, panels craned into place | Just as fast, craned in, up to 100 metres a day |
| Adding a capping | Harder and costlier to cap a large tilt-up panel | Designed to take a capping or column cap easily |
| Panel scale | Large, heavy single panels | Modular 3.2m panels that suit any boundary |
| Material strength | Standard concrete | 50MPa, the same strength class used in major civil works |
| Backing | Varies by installer | 15-year structural guarantee, 100+ year design life |

Tilt-up fence alternative: common questions
Is your fence as quick to install as a tilt-up panel?
Yes. Like tilt-up, our panels are prefabricated and craned into place, so a fence goes up fast, up to 100 metres a day. You get the same speed and convenience, with a finish that looks far better.
How is it different from a tilt-up fence?
A tilt-up fence is a large, plain concrete panel, usually with a good face on one side and a flat back. Our walls are profiled on both sides as standard, with column detail and finish options, so they read as a designed boundary rather than a bare slab, and your neighbours see the same finish you do.
Can you add a capping or feature top?
Yes, and easily. Our system is built to take a capping or column cap, which is simpler and more cost-effective than capping a large tilt-up panel. You can add column caps and feature detail to suit the home.
Is it as strong as a tilt-up wall?
Yes. Our panels are cast from 50MPa concrete, the same strength class used in major civil works, set on steel-reinforced pier footings and backed by a 15-year structural guarantee.
