Fine Landscaping provides expert brickwork for homeowners across SE3, from Blackheath Village to the edges of Blackheath Common. Whether you need a new garden wall, a smart set of brick steps, or repairs and repointing, we focus on clean lines and long-term strength. Our bricklayers can also create raised planters, retaining walls and bespoke BBQ areas that feel part of the original setting. Every build is finished with careful pointing and tidy site management.
Blackheath’s Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and period conversions often need brickwork that respects original proportions and detailing. We regularly match brick tones and mortar profiles so new walls and piers sit comfortably alongside older façades. For sloping plots and landscaped gardens, we design retaining walls with proper drainage and foundations. If you’re in nearby Greenwich, Lee, Lewisham or Kidbrooke, we bring the same level of craftsmanship and consistency.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels and discuss how you use the space. You’ll receive a clear written scope covering foundations, materials, coping choices and finishes, plus a realistic programme. Our team protects paths and planting, keeps access safe, and leaves the site clean at the end of each day. Homeowners choose us for dependable scheduling, high-quality workmanship and a 10-year warranty on qualifying brickwork.
Working across the Royal Borough of Greenwich/London Borough of Lewisham means we plan for varied access, parking constraints and neighbour considerations common around SE3 streets. Many gardens sit on changes in level, so we build retaining walls with reinforcement and weep holes where required. We also account for mature trees near boundaries and protect roots during excavation. Where council guidance applies, we help you stay compliant before work begins.

Costs vary by access, foundations, brick choice and detailing. As a guide, small repairs and repointing often start from £250–£900. A simple garden or boundary wall may range from £120–£220 per m², while retaining walls with drainage and reinforcement are typically £200–£350+ per m². Piers, steps, planters and coping stones can add complexity. We provide a detailed, itemised quotation after a site visit.
Minor repairs can be completed in half a day to two days, depending on drying time and access. A new garden wall or set of steps commonly takes 2–5 working days, while larger boundary or retaining walls may take 1–3 weeks. Timescales are affected by foundations, ground conditions, weather, brick availability, and whether we’re matching existing finishes. We confirm a programme before starting and keep you updated throughout.
Many garden walls, planters and repairs are permitted development, but rules can change with wall height, highway-facing boundaries, listed buildings and conservation areas. If your property is near Blackheath’s historic streetscape, extra checks may be sensible. We’ll talk through what you’re building, where it sits, and any relevant constraints, then advise whether you should contact the council or apply for permission before work proceeds.
We offer a 10-year warranty on qualifying brickwork, covering workmanship issues such as defective pointing, poor bonding, or movement caused by incorrect construction. It also includes problems linked to inadequate foundations where these are within our scope. Normal wear, accidental damage, and issues caused by third-party alterations aren’t covered. You’ll receive documentation confirming what’s included, along with care guidance to help keep your brickwork looking sharp.
We can build with London stocks, reclaimed bricks for period matching, or high-quality modern facing bricks for a cleaner look. Popular finishes include soldier courses, decorative banding, brick-on-edge copings, stone copings, and recessed or flush pointing. For features, we build pillars and piers, curved planters, steps with contrasting treads, and BBQ surrounds with heat-resistant elements. We’ll help you choose options that suit your home and garden layout.
