Those Victorian terraces along the High Street know something about solid brick walls – they've stood for over a century. Today's Banstead properties deserve that same endurance, whether you're enclosing a garden off Winkworth Road or creating a statement entrance.

Brick walls tell stories in Banstead. From the original boundary walls surrounding older properties near Nork Park to modern privacy screens shielding new developments, each structure serves its purpose with quiet dignity. Local clay stocks blend seamlessly with existing architecture, while contemporary designs complement the area's evolving character. Working across SM7, the right brickwork transforms boundaries into assets.
Foundation depth varies dramatically between Banstead's chalk downs and clay pockets. Each wall begins with ground assessment, determining whether standard footings suffice or deeper excavation counters seasonal movement. Mortar mixes adjust for exposure – windswept locations near Epsom Downs require different ratios than sheltered spots in central Banstead. DPC membranes prevent rising damp, essential given our variable water table.
Twenty years building across Banstead means knowing which bricks weather best on exposed sites near Tadworth. Local knowledge prevents costly mistakes – like understanding why certain mortars fail on north-facing walls during our damp winters.

Standard garden walls in SM7 generally range £140-200 per square metre, though retaining walls or decorative features push higher. A typical 20-metre boundary wall stands 1.8m costs £5,000-7,200.
Absolutely – from period properties near Banstead station to modern estates towards Nork, throughout SM7 and neighbouring areas including Tadworth and Epsom Downs.
Most residential walls complete within 8-12 days, weather permitting. Larger projects or complex designs might stretch to three weeks, particularly during Banstead's wetter months.
Each wall carries decade-long structural coverage against defects. This encompasses foundation integrity, frost damage resistance, and mortar joint stability – peace of mind for your investment.
Often possible, though matching older bricks proves challenging. Structural surveys determine if foundations support additional height. Sometimes rebuilding makes more sense than patching, especially with pre-war walls common around Banstead.
