Kensington gardens and terraces demand brickwork that looks refined and performs for decades. We build boundary walls, retaining walls and feature walls that complement streets near Kensington High Street and the calm edges of Kensington Gardens. Whether you need new pillars and coping or careful repairs and pointing, our team delivers a crisp, traditional finish. Every wall is set out accurately for straight lines, level courses and neat reveals.
Homes across Holland Park, South Kensington and Earl's Court range from stucco townhouses to mansion blocks and period conversions. That variety makes brick matching essential, especially where older walls have weathered and mellowed. We source matching brick and use engineering brick where strength and moisture resistance matter most. The result is brickwork that looks original to the property, not like an afterthought.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage, footings and access, then provide a clear written specification. Our bricklayers protect paving, planting and entrances, and we keep the site tidy throughout. Pointing is finished to suit the look you want—flush, recessed or weather-struck—while maintaining durability. Fine Landscaping is based in Norbury, around 40 minutes away, and we back our work with a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Working in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea often means tight access, controlled parking and careful neighbour considerations. We plan deliveries to suit W8 and W14 restrictions and minimise disruption in mansion block settings. Many gardens sit above or below street level, so retaining walls and drainage details are designed to manage water properly. Our approach fits the area’s formal squares and heritage-style elevations while meeting modern performance needs.

Costs for brick walls in the Kensington area vary with height, foundations, access and brick choice. As a guide, small repairs and repointing may start from £300–£900, while new garden boundary walls often fall around £180–£350 per m². Retaining walls with drainage and stronger footings commonly range £250–£450+ per m². Pillars, coping and matching brick can increase the overall budget.
Most straightforward boundary walls take 2–5 days, depending on length, height and curing time for footings. Retaining walls usually take 4–10 days because they require excavation, drainage layers and more reinforcement. Feature walls, pillars and detailed coping can add time due to setting-out and finishing. Access constraints near busy roads like Kensington High Street and delivery scheduling can also affect the programme.
Many garden walls are permitted development, but rules can change with height, proximity to highways and whether the property is listed or in a conservation area. In Kensington, this is common, especially around period terraces and formal squares. We’ll advise on typical limits and check what applies to your address before work starts. If needed, we can help you prepare details for the council to review.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our brick wall installations, covering workmanship and structural integrity when the wall is built to our specification. This includes issues such as movement caused by incorrect footings or poor bonding, and premature failure of pointing due to workmanship. Materials are covered by relevant manufacturer guarantees where applicable. We also give aftercare guidance to help keep brickwork looking sharp and performing well.
You can choose from matching brick to blend with existing walls, engineering brick for strength and moisture resistance, or contrasting feature brick for a modern look. Popular options include soldier courses, recessed panels, brick-on-edge cappings, stone coping, and traditional piers or pillars with caps. We’ll help you select mortar colour and pointing style to suit your façade and garden. Samples can be arranged to confirm the finish before we build.
