Balmain's harbourside terraces sit on tight, often sloping blocks. Retaining work here is substantial: tall engineered concrete-block walls where the lot drops sharply toward the water, modest builds on flatter sections. Rendered, painted, or sandstone-faced finishes that match the heritage character are standard. Council heritage controls cover most streets.
