From smart garden walls to structural retaining walls, we deliver brickwork that looks right and performs for years. Homeowners around Mitcham Common and Figges Marsh choose us for neat lines, strong foundations and clean detailing. Whether you’re defining boundaries, adding planters, or rebuilding tired masonry, we tailor each build to your garden layout. We also handle repairs and repointing to restore safety and kerb appeal.
Mitcham’s mix of Victorian cottages, 1930s semis and modern estates means no two projects are the same. We regularly work on side access constraints and long rear gardens common across CR4, planning deliveries and waste removal carefully. For older properties, we match brick tones and mortar profiles so new work blends naturally. For newer homes, we can create contemporary features such as crisp pillars, raised beds and BBQ areas.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage and existing structures, then provide a clear written quotation. Our team uses proven methods for footings, bonding and weather-resistant pointing, keeping the site tidy and safe throughout. You’ll get straightforward communication, realistic timescales and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty. Many clients recommend us because we turn up when we say we will and finish to a high standard.
We know the London Borough of Merton requirements and the practicalities of working around Mitcham Junction station routes and residential parking. Ground conditions can vary, so we assess soil, levels and water run-off before specifying footings or drainage behind retaining walls. Many streets have narrow side access, so we plan material handling and protect paths, lawns and existing patios. The result is brickwork suited to Mitcham’s property styles and day-to-day living.

Costs vary by access, foundations and brick choice. As a guide in Mitcham, small repairs and repointing often start around £250–£900. New garden or boundary walls commonly range from £1,200–£4,500 depending on length, height and footings. Retaining walls, steps, piers or BBQ areas typically fall between £2,500–£8,000+, especially where drainage or structural reinforcement is needed. We’ll quote after a site visit.
Most repairs and repointing can be completed in 1–2 days. A small garden wall or planter is often 2–5 days, while longer boundary walls, pillars and steps may take 1–2 weeks. Retaining walls can take 1–3 weeks depending on excavation, drainage, curing time and access for materials. Weather, brick availability and the condition of existing foundations can also affect the programme.
Many garden walls, planters, steps and BBQ areas are permitted development, but there are important exceptions. Front boundary walls over certain heights, work near highways, listed buildings, and conservation considerations can trigger permissions. If a retaining wall is structural or affects drainage, extra checks may be sensible. We’ll advise what’s likely to apply in Merton and can help you confirm requirements before work starts.
All our brickwork is covered by a 10-year workmanship warranty for peace of mind. This covers issues arising from installation, such as structural defects, movement due to inadequate construction, or premature failure of pointing where our specification has been followed. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, impact, flooding, or problems caused by pre-existing unstable ground we’ve advised needs additional works. We’ll explain coverage clearly in writing.
We can build in a range of bricks to suit Mitcham homes, including London stock-style, wirecut, and reclaimed-look options. Popular designs include crisp boundary walls with coping stones, rendered piers, curved planters, and multi-level steps with contrasting brick bands. For BBQ areas, we can incorporate heat-resistant linings and practical worktop space. We’ll help you choose colours, bonds and finishes that complement your property and garden.
