From Brockley Market to Hilly Fields, Brockley homeowners take pride in outdoor spaces that feel considered and well made. Our bricklaying team builds garden walls, boundary walls and retaining walls that look right with local brick tones and detailing. We also create pillars and piers, raised planters, steps and brick BBQ areas for practical, attractive gardens. If you need repairs or repointing, we’ll restore strength and appearance without unnecessary rebuilds.
Brockley’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and mansion conversions often come with narrow side access, mature planting and original brickwork worth matching. We’re used to tying new work into existing walls, coping stones and pathways so it looks intentional rather than “added on”. Many projects in nearby Honor Oak and Crofton Park need careful level changes, making retaining walls and steps a common request. We’ll advise on proportions, drainage and finishes so the brickwork complements the property.
We start with a site visit, measure-up and a written specification covering foundations, brick type, mortar colour and finishes. Our bricklayers work neatly, protect paving and planting, and keep you informed on progress and any discoveries once we open up the ground. Every build is checked for plumb lines, consistent joints and safe load-bearing where required. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clear communication and a 10-year workmanship warranty.
SE4 gardens can include clay-heavy ground and sloping plots, so we design foundations and retaining walls accordingly. We plan deliveries and waste removal around resident parking and tighter access streets near New Cross and Ladywell. Where properties sit close to boundaries, we set out carefully to avoid encroachment and keep lines true. If permissions or party wall considerations apply, we’ll flag them early and help you stay compliant.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary by access, foundations, brick choice and whether the work is structural. As a guide in Brockley, small repairs and repointing often start from £250–£900, while new garden or boundary walls commonly range £1,200–£6,000+. Retaining walls, pillars/piers and stepped builds typically sit at £2,500–£12,000+ depending on height, drainage and finishes. We provide a written, itemised quote after a site visit.
Minor repairs or repointing can take 1–2 days, depending on the area and drying conditions. A small garden wall or planter is often 2–5 days, while larger boundary walls, piers and steps usually take 1–2 weeks including foundations and curing time. Retaining walls can take longer due to excavation, drainage and reinforcement. Weather, access, waste removal and matching reclaimed bricks can all affect the schedule.
Many garden walls, planters and patios are permitted development, but there are limits—especially for walls next to highways, front boundaries, and taller structures. If your property is a flat/mansion conversion, permissions can be different, and listed buildings or conservation considerations may apply. We’ll talk through your plans, check the key rules and advise when it’s sensible to confirm with the London Borough of Lewisham before work starts.
Yes. Our brickwork is covered by a 10-year workmanship warranty for structural integrity and installation faults, provided the build hasn’t been altered by others and normal maintenance is followed. This includes issues such as defective bonding, poor jointing or movement caused by inadequate foundations (where we built them). Materials are supplied to manufacturer standards, and we’ll explain care for pointing, sealing (if used) and drainage to protect longevity.
We can build in new facing bricks, reclaimed London stock-style bricks, or complementary blends to suit Brockley’s period homes. Popular options include soldier courses, recessed panels, coping stones, bullnose steps, and brick-on-edge detailing for planters. For BBQ areas we can incorporate fire-rated linings and worktops. We’ll help you choose brick, mortar colour and joint profile so the finished work matches your house and garden style.
