Westminster’s streets demand brickwork that looks right and performs for decades. We build boundary walls, retaining walls and feature walls that complement nearby period façades and modern courtyards alike. Whether you’re in Victoria or close to Westminster Abbey, we’ll create a finish that feels authentic to the setting. Expect neat lines, tidy sites and brickwork that stands up to London weather.
Homeowners across the brick walls Westminster area often need careful matching to Georgian townhouses, mansion flats and luxury apartments. We source matching brick where possible, including engineering brick for damp-prone bases and high-traffic edges. For contemporary schemes in Pimlico, we can introduce crisp detailing with pillars and coping to sharpen boundaries without overpowering the property. Every build is set out precisely to suit tight plots and shared boundaries.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage and any retaining requirements, then provide a clear written specification. Our team protects paving and planting, maintains safe access, and keeps neighbours informed when boundaries are involved. Pointing is finished for durability and appearance, with joints struck consistently across the wall. Fine Landscaping is based 35 minutes away, and our brick walls in City of Westminster are backed by a straightforward 10-year warranty.
SW1 sites often involve restricted access, basement levels and strict parking controls, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Ground conditions can vary, and retaining walls near lower courtyards may need robust footings and drainage. We also consider sightlines and heritage context around areas like Whitehall and St James’s Park. Where required, we align designs with City of Westminster expectations and keep documentation ready.

Costs vary with height, foundations and access. As a guide, simple boundary brickwork often starts around £180–£300 per m², while taller walls, piers and coping commonly sit at £300–£500+ per m². Retaining walls with drainage, reinforcement or engineering brick can be £450–£900+ per m². In Westminster, restricted access, parking suspensions and waste handling can also affect the total.
A small boundary wall or a pair of pillars may take 2–4 days, while a longer run of walling is typically 1–2 weeks. Retaining walls can take 1–3 weeks depending on excavation, drainage and curing time for footings. Timescales are influenced by access in SW1, brick matching lead times, weather, and whether we’re tying into existing structures or working around services and planting.
Many garden walls are permitted development, but rules can change based on height, location next to a highway, and whether the property is listed or within a conservation area. Westminster has many sensitive streetscapes, so it’s important to check before building or altering a front boundary. We’ll advise on typical limits, review your site details, and can help you confirm requirements with the City of Westminster where needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our brick wall workmanship, covering structural integrity and defects arising from installation. This includes issues such as movement caused by inadequate footings, poor bonding, or defective pointing completed by our team. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, third-party alterations, or extreme events beyond reasonable control. We also use proven materials and correct detailing, such as coping and drainage, to reduce future maintenance.
We can build in matching brick to blend with existing façades, or use engineering brick for strong, low-absorption courses near ground level. Popular details include soldier courses, recessed panels, brick-on-edge coping, and robust piers for gates. For a sharper look, we can specify precise pointing styles and colour-matched mortar. We’ll bring samples, discuss proportions, and recommend options that suit your Westminster property and budget.
