Whether you’re defining a front garden near Herne Hill station or strengthening a sloped plot close to Brockwell Park, well-built brickwork makes a visible difference. Fine Landscaping designs and builds boundary walls, retaining walls and feature walls that suit the street and improve security. We can add pillars, coping and crisp pointing for a clean, finished look. Every wall is set out carefully for straight lines and consistent brick courses.
The Herne Hill area is known for Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period conversions, where brick choice and mortar colour matter. We source matching brick where possible, including engineering brick for ground contact and high-wear areas. If you’re between Dulwich and Brixton, we’ll consider sightlines, garden levels and how the wall ties into existing paths and steps. The aim is brickwork that feels original, not bolted on.
We start with a site visit, measure-up and clear recommendations on foundations, drainage and wall thickness. You’ll get a written scope, realistic timescales and a tidy, well-managed build from start to finish. Our team protects paving and planting, keeps access safe, and finishes with neat joints and properly bedded coping. Local homeowners choose us because we’re 15 minutes away, reliable on site, and serious about long-term durability.
Working across SE24 and nearby streets, we plan for tight access, resident parking controls and shared boundaries common in terraces. In brick walls in London Borough of Lambeth/Southwark, we also consider conservation-style detailing where relevant and keep heights compliant for front boundaries. Ground levels around older gardens can vary, so we assess footing depth and drainage before laying the first course. The result is brick walls Herne Hill area homeowners can rely on through wet winters and hot summers.

Costs vary with height, access, foundations and brick choice. As a guide, a straightforward boundary wall often ranges from £250–£450 per m², while retaining walls with drainage and stronger foundations are commonly £350–£650 per m². Pillars, coping stones, matching brick and repointing can add to the total. We’ll survey the site in SE24 and provide a clear, itemised estimate.
Most small boundary walls take around 2–5 days, depending on length, footing depth and curing time. Larger projects—such as retaining walls, multiple pillars or complex feature walls—often take 1–3 weeks. Timescales are affected by access, demolition and waste removal, weather, and whether we’re sourcing matching brick. We’ll confirm a schedule after the site visit and keep you updated daily.
Many garden walls are permitted development, but there are key limits—especially for front boundaries and walls next to highways. Typical rules include height restrictions and extra considerations for listed buildings or conservation areas. We’ll advise what’s likely required for your property and can help you check with the London Borough of Lambeth or Southwark if needed. We also ensure safe construction and suitable foundations regardless of permission.
Yes. Our brickwork is covered by a 10-year warranty on workmanship, including stability issues linked to construction, such as defective foundations, poor bonding or failed pointing. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, movement caused by external factors (for example, major tree root heave), or misuse. We also use quality materials and proven build methods to reduce risk. Warranty details are provided in writing with your quote.
We build boundary, retaining and feature walls using facing brick, reclaimed-style brick, and engineering brick where strength and moisture resistance matter. Popular options include brick-on-edge or stone coping, recessed or flush pointing, and pillar detailing to frame gates. We can match existing brickwork and mortar colour for Victorian and Edwardian homes. After a site visit, we’ll recommend a design that suits your property, budget and maintenance preferences.
