1. Choose your materials: You will need timber sleepers, galvanized nails, and masonry screws to construct a sleeper retaining wall.
2. Prepare the base: Attach timber sleepers to a concrete slab using masonry screws. Make sure you place them at least 8 inches apart for adequate stability.

6. Finish off: Top the retaining wall with cement or stone to give it a polished look.
