Dartford gardens often need structure as much as planting, especially around busy routes near the Dartford Crossing and the newer estates by Greenhithe. We create brick and stone features that define spaces, add privacy, and make sloping or awkward plots easier to use. Popular requests include garden walls, brick pillars, raised beds, and smart planters. If you’re in DA1 or DA2, we can design and build a finish that looks original to the property.
Our local approach suits Dartford’s mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis, and modern developments in Wilmington and Swanscombe. Period homes often suit traditional brick bonds and coping stones, while newer builds benefit from crisp contemporary lines and matching blockwork. We also consider boundary layouts, shared access, and typical garden proportions so features don’t overpower the space. The result is masonry that complements the house and improves day-to-day usability.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels, and discuss how you want to use the garden. You’ll receive a clear specification covering foundations, drainage considerations, materials, and finishes, so there are no surprises. Our team builds with proper footings, accurate setting-out, and neat pointing, keeping the site safe and tidy throughout. Homeowners choose us for dependable communication, premium craftsmanship, and a 10-year workmanship warranty.
Across Dartford Borough, we regularly work with tight side access, on-street parking constraints, and shared boundaries typical of terraces and semis. Ground conditions can vary between older plots and newer developments, so we size foundations and drainage details to suit the site rather than guessing. We also plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption, especially near busier routes. If permissions or boundary agreements are needed, we’ll flag it early and help you navigate it.

Costs vary with size, access, and materials, but typical Dartford projects start around £900–£1,800 for small planters or short walls. Medium builds such as raised beds with steps or brick pillars often fall between £2,500–£6,500. Larger works like full boundary walls, archways, or a built-in BBQ area can be £7,000–£15,000+. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit in DA1/DA2.
Small features like planters or a simple raised bed usually take 1–3 days. A garden wall with piers, steps, or multiple levels typically takes 4–10 working days, depending on foundations and curing time. Larger schemes with stone features, archways, or BBQ/fire pit areas may run 2–4 weeks. Timescales are influenced by access, weather, ground preparation, and whether we’re matching existing brickwork.
Most garden brickwork is permitted development, but there are limits—especially for boundary wall heights, walls next to highways, and properties with restrictions. If you’re near listed buildings or within a conservation area, extra rules can apply. We’ll discuss your layout, check the basics for Dartford Borough, and advise if you should confirm with the council. Where needed, we can supply drawings and specifications to support an application.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our brickwork and masonry landscaping, covering issues caused by installation faults such as poor setting-out, inadequate fixings, or defective pointing. We also use quality materials from reputable suppliers, installed to manufacturer guidance. Normal wear, accidental damage, and movement caused by external factors (for example, tree roots or third-party works) aren’t covered, but we’ll always advise on prevention and maintenance.
We offer a wide range of options, from traditional London stock-style bricks and reclaimed blends to modern smooth bricks, porcelain coping, and natural stone features. Popular choices include brick pillars with caps, curved garden walls, rendered planters, raised beds with seating edges, and built-in BBQ or fire pit areas. We help you choose colours, bonds, and pointing styles to suit your home, then provide samples and a clear build specification.
