If your garden needs structure, privacy or a smarter finish, our brickwork team can help. We build garden walls, boundary walls and retaining walls that look right for Streatham properties and stand up to year-round weather. Homeowners near Streatham Common and along Streatham High Road often ask us to create neat entrances with pillars and piers, or to rebuild tired walls. We also construct practical features such as planters, BBQ areas and brick steps.
Streatham’s mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, mansion flats and modern apartments means brickwork needs a considered approach. We match brick types, mortar colour and detailing so new work doesn’t jar against period façades in Streatham Hill or Streatham Park. For newer builds and blocks, we focus on clean geometry, durable coping and low-maintenance finishes. Whether you’re in SW16 or SW2, we design brick features that complement the setting and improve everyday use of the garden.
Our process starts with a site visit to check levels, drainage and existing foundations, then we provide a written specification and itemised quote. We protect paving and planting, keep access routes clear, and leave the site tidy at the end of each day. Every wall and feature is built for stability, with proper footings, weep holes where needed, and weatherproof detailing. Local homeowners choose us for straightforward communication, reliable scheduling, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Many Streatham gardens sit on varied ground and sloping plots, so we check bearing strength and manage water with sensible drainage details. Access can be tight around terraced streets, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption and parking issues. We also consider boundary lines and party-wall sensitivities common in the London Borough of Lambeth. The result is brickwork that fits the property style and performs well in local conditions.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary with access, foundations, brick choice and wall height. As a guide, small repairs and repointing often start from £250–£900. New garden or boundary walls commonly range from £120–£220 per m², while retaining walls with drainage and engineering details can be £200–£400+ per m². Pillars/piers, steps, planters and BBQ areas are usually priced as fixed projects after a site survey.
Minor repairs or repointing can take half a day to two days, depending on the length of wall and mortar condition. A small garden wall or planter is often 2–5 days, while larger boundary walls, steps or multiple piers may take 1–2 weeks. Retaining walls can take longer due to excavation, drainage and curing time. Weather, access, and material lead times also affect the schedule.
Many garden walls, planters and steps fall under permitted development, but there are important exceptions. Height limits apply, especially for walls facing a highway, and extra constraints may exist for corner plots or conservation areas. If your property is near protected settings or has specific covenants, rules can be stricter. We’ll flag likely requirements, help with drawings where needed, and advise when to check with the London Borough of Lambeth before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our brickwork installation, covering workmanship issues such as defective pointing, instability caused by poor construction, or failure linked to incorrect detailing. It also includes problems arising from inadequate footings or drainage where these form part of our agreed specification. Normal wear, accidental damage, and issues caused by third-party alterations aren’t covered. You’ll receive documentation outlining what’s included for your project.
We can build in London stock bricks, reclaimed-style bricks, or contemporary smooth-faced options to suit your home. Popular upgrades include brick-on-edge or stone copings, recessed or flush pointing, and contrasting band courses for period character. For steps and BBQ areas, we can incorporate paving slabs, fire-rated linings and practical worktop details. We’ll bring samples, recommend proportions for your space, and match finishes to existing walls and your garden design.
