Response within 24 hours
If your garden needs clearer boundaries, safer levels or a smarter frontage, our brickwork team can help. We build boundary walls, retaining walls and feature walls that suit Denmark Hill’s streetscape and stand up to London weather. Homeowners near Denmark Hill station and around SE5 often ask us to rebuild failing walls or add pillars and coping for a finished look. Every wall is set out carefully for straight runs, tidy corners and consistent brick bonds.
Denmark Hill has a mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and purpose-built flats, each with its own brick tones and detailing. We regularly match brick size, colour and texture so new work blends with existing façades and garden walls. Where strength is critical—such as retaining walls or high-traffic entrances—we specify engineering brick and appropriate reinforcement. Whether you’re in Camberwell or close to Ruskin Park, we tailor the design to your property’s character.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements and a clear written scope, including foundations, drainage considerations and finish details. We protect paving and planting, keep the site tidy, and schedule deliveries to reduce disruption on busy residential roads. You’ll get workmanship backed by our 10-year warranty, plus practical advice on coping, pointing profiles and long-term maintenance. Local homeowners trust us for reliable timings, honest options and brickwork that stays true and plumb.
Working in the London Borough of Southwark means planning for tight access, controlled parking and busy routes near King’s College Hospital. We time waste removal and material drops to minimise disruption and keep pathways safe. Many SE5 gardens sit at different levels, so we design retaining walls with proper footings and drainage. We also consider neighbouring boundaries and party wall lines, keeping everything compliant and well documented.

Costs vary with height, thickness, foundations and access. As a guide, a straightforward boundary wall rebuild may start around £250–£450 per m², while taller walls, piers/pillars, coping stones and detailed matching brickwork can push this to £450–£750+ per m². Retaining walls are typically higher due to deeper footings, drainage and reinforcement. We’ll survey in SE5 and provide a clear, itemised estimate.
Small repairs or a short garden wall section can often be completed in 1–3 days. A typical boundary wall with new footings and coping usually takes 3–7 working days, depending on length and curing time. Retaining walls may take 1–2 weeks because of excavation, drainage layers and any reinforcement. Timescales are affected by access, weather, brick availability for matching, and whether demolition and waste removal are needed.
Many garden walls are permitted development, but rules can apply to height, especially at the front boundary or next to a highway. Listed buildings, conservation areas and shared boundaries can add extra requirements, and there may be restrictions on altering existing boundary treatments. We’ll advise what’s likely to be permitted, check relevant Southwark guidance, and flag when you should seek formal confirmation before work starts.
Yes. Our brickwork is covered by a 10-year warranty on workmanship for structural integrity, including issues caused by poor construction such as defective bonding, inadequate footings or faulty pointing. It covers the wall as built, provided it hasn’t been altered or damaged by third parties, ground movement beyond reasonable control, or impact incidents. We also explain care and maintenance so the finish stays sharp for years.
We can build traditional boundary walls, retaining walls, feature walls and entrance pillars, with options such as soldier courses, recessed panels and decorative bonds. Coping choices include brick-on-edge, stone copings or precast units for water-shedding. For strength and damp resistance we often use engineering brick at ground level. We’ll bring samples and help choose matching brick, pointing style and coping to suit your Denmark Hill property.
