Coulsdon’s downland setting calls for brickwork that looks right and performs in all weather. We build garden walls, boundary walls, retaining walls, pillars and piers, plus practical features like steps, planters and BBQ areas. Whether you’re near Farthing Downs or based in Old Coulsdon, we’ll match the style of your property and the character of the landscape. Repairs and repointing are also available to restore tired brickwork safely and neatly.
Local homeowners in CR5 often have larger detached houses, classic 1930s properties and newer developments that benefit from crisp detailing and consistent brick matching. We regularly work on front boundary walls, side access routes and sloped gardens where levels need careful management. If you’re in Chipstead Valley or Hooley, we can advise on designs that improve privacy and kerb appeal without feeling heavy. Every build is measured, set out and finished to complement your home’s lines and materials.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage, access and the condition of any existing footings. You’ll receive a clear specification covering brick type, mortar colour, coping choices and any reinforcement needed for retaining walls. Our team keeps the site tidy, protects lawns and paving, and communicates progress throughout. Work is completed to a high standard and backed by a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
As bricklayers contractors in London Borough of Croydon, we’re used to Coulsdon’s varied ground conditions and level changes near downland edges. We plan footings, weep vents and drainage details to reduce movement and water pressure behind retaining walls. Access and parking can be tight on some residential roads, so we schedule deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. Designs are tailored to local property styles, from larger detached homes to 1930s streets.

Most repairs or repointing can be completed in 1–2 days, depending on drying time and access. A typical garden or boundary wall may take 2–5 days, while retaining walls, piers and stepped features often take 1–2 weeks. Timescales depend on groundwork, curing, weather, waste removal and any bespoke detailing. We’ll confirm a realistic programme before starting.
Many garden walls, planters, steps and BBQ areas are usually permitted development, but there are important limits, especially for front boundary walls near highways and visibility. If your property is in a conservation area or has specific restrictions, rules can be tighter. We’ll discuss your layout, heights and location, and can help you check Croydon Council guidance before work begins to avoid issues.
Yes. Our brickwork is covered by a 10-year warranty, giving reassurance that the structure is built to last. The warranty covers workmanship issues such as failing joints, instability caused by poor construction, or defects linked to incorrect installation. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, ground movement outside normal expectations, or alterations by third parties. We also provide care advice to keep brickwork looking its best.
We can build in a range of bricks to suit Coulsdon homes, including London stocks, red multi, buff and wirecut styles, with mortar colours chosen to blend or contrast. Popular finishes include soldier courses, recessed panels, coping stones, and brick-on-edge details. For BBQ areas and planters, we can incorporate heat-resistant linings and stone caps. We’ll show options and recommend what works for your property and budget.
