Response within 24 hours
If your garden needs a clearer boundary, safer level changes or a standout frontage, our brickwork team can help. We build boundary walls, retaining walls and feature walls across SE13, including streets near Hither Green station and Mountsfield Park. Expect careful setting-out, straight lines and consistent courses. Every wall is finished with crisp pointing and weather-ready details.
Hither Green’s Victorian terraces and Edwardian houses often need sympathetic brick matching, especially on front garden walls and side returns. For 1930s semis, we regularly rebuild tired boundary walls and add pillars for new gates and wider drive openings. We source matching brick where possible and can specify engineering brick for damp-prone areas. The result suits the property style rather than looking like an afterthought.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage and the condition of any existing footings. You’ll receive a clear written scope covering foundations, brick type, coping and pointing style, plus an agreed timeline. Our team protects paving and planting, keeps access workable, and leaves the site clean each day. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, high standards and a 10-year workmanship warranty.
Across the London Borough of Lewisham, access can be tight on terraced streets and parking is often controlled, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Gardens around Manor Park and Grove Park frequently have level changes, making retaining wall design and drainage essential. We also consider nearby trees and root zones when setting foundation depths. Our approach keeps builds compliant, practical and durable for local conditions.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary by height, footing depth, access and brick choice. As a guide, a straightforward boundary wall may start around £180–£300 per m², while retaining walls with drainage and reinforcement commonly fall between £300–£600+ per m². Pillars are often £450–£1,200 each depending on size and caps. Matching brick, coping stones and making good existing paving can also affect the total.
Most small boundary walls take 2–5 days once materials are on site, including foundations and curing time. Larger projects—such as long runs with multiple pillars or a retaining wall—typically take 1–3 weeks. Timescales depend on ground conditions, demolition of existing walls, access for barrows and mixers, and weather. We’ll confirm a programme after measuring and checking levels.
Many garden walls are permitted development, but limits apply—especially to walls next to highways and front boundaries. If your property is in a conservation area, or you’re altering a wall facing the street, extra rules may apply. We’ll advise on typical height limits, visibility splays and any Lewisham requirements, and can help you confirm whether permission is needed before work starts.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our brick walls, covering defects caused by installation issues such as poor bonding, inadequate mortar joints or incorrect setting-out. It also includes problems linked to our specified foundations where we’ve designed and built them. Materials are covered by manufacturer guarantees where applicable. Normal wear, impact damage and movement from third-party works are excluded.
We can build in standard facing brick, matching reclaimed brick, or engineering brick for high-wear and damp areas. Popular choices include soldier-course detailing, recessed or flush pointing, and coping options such as brick-on-edge, stone copings or concrete caps. We also build feature walls and pillars for gates, lighting or house numbers. We’ll recommend options that suit your home’s era and your maintenance preferences.
