Honor Oak gardens often need smart, practical brickwork that copes with slopes and tight side access. We build and repair garden walls, boundary walls, retaining walls, pillars and piers, plus BBQ areas and brick planters. Whether you’re near Honor Oak Park station or walking routes around One Tree Hill, we’ll match the style of your property and the character of your street. We also carry out repairs and repointing to keep older brickwork safe and weatherproof.
Local homes in SE23 include Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and 1930s semis, each with different brick sizes, mortar colours and detailing. We take the time to blend new work with existing façades, coping stones and garden layouts. If you’re close to Forest Hill, Brockley or Nunhead, we’ll advise on wall heights, pier spacing and step geometry that suits your plot. The result is brickwork that looks original, not bolted on.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements and a written scope so you know exactly what’s included. We prepare solid footings, use quality materials, and finish joints neatly for a clean, consistent look. Throughout the job we keep access clear, protect planting, and leave the site tidy at the end of each day. Homeowners choose us for dependable scheduling, straightforward updates, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Honor Oak’s hilly plots can need deeper footings and careful retaining wall design to manage levels safely. We plan deliveries and parking with residential streets in mind and keep materials stored neatly to maintain access. Working across the London Borough of Lewisham, we also consider boundary positions, neighbour interfaces and visibility from the street. Where older walls are present, we assess movement and moisture before recommending repairs or repointing.




Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary with access, wall height, foundations and the brick/mortar match. As a guide in SE23, small repairs and repointing often start from £250–£800, while new garden or boundary walls commonly fall around £180–£350 per m². Retaining walls, steps, and piers can be £1,500–£6,000+ depending on engineering, drainage and finishes. We provide a detailed written quotation after a site visit.
Minor repairs or repointing are often completed in 1–2 days. A typical garden or boundary wall may take 3–7 working days, depending on length, footing depth and curing time. Retaining walls, steps, and piers usually take 1–2 weeks when you include excavation, drainage, setting out and finishing. Weather, access (especially through side passages), and material lead times can all affect the schedule.
Many garden walls and landscaping works are permitted development, but rules can apply to wall height, visibility next to highways, and whether your property is in a conservation area. If you’re altering a front boundary wall or adding tall piers, it’s worth checking early. We’ll talk you through the likely requirements for the London Borough of Lewisham and can help you confirm details before work starts.
Yes. Our brickwork is covered by a 10-year warranty on workmanship, giving you confidence that walls, piers, steps and built features are constructed correctly. The warranty covers issues arising from installation, such as defective pointing or structural problems caused by poor build practice. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or movement due to external factors like major ground shifts or third-party works. We also advise on maintenance to extend lifespan.
We can build in standard facing bricks, reclaimed bricks for period character, or engineering bricks for areas needing extra durability. Popular options include soldier-course or brick-on-edge copings, contrasting piers, recessed panels, and curved planters. For BBQ areas, we can incorporate heat-resistant linings and practical worktop heights. We’ll help you choose brick type, mortar colour and joint style so the finished work suits your home and garden layout.
