Keston gardens often deserve more than planting alone—solid brick and stonework gives them definition and usability. We create garden walls, archways, raised beds and planters that sit naturally alongside the landscape around Keston Common and Keston Ponds. Whether you want a discreet boundary or a feature focal point, we match materials and detailing to your home. Work is carried out with careful levels, drainage and clean finishes throughout.
Local homes in BR2 range from period cottages to large detached houses and country homes, each needing a different approach to scale and character. We regularly work across the Keston area as well as nearby Hayes, Farnborough and Downe, where plots can be wide and access varies. Traditional brickwork suits older properties, while crisp coping stones and contemporary pointing can modernise newer builds. We’ll advise on proportions, sightlines and how masonry can frame planting without overpowering it.
We start with a site visit to check levels, ground conditions and how you use the space, then provide a clear written quote and schedule. Our builds use proper footings, frost-resistant materials and tidy jointing, with attention to falls and water run-off. You’ll have one point of contact from design through to completion, and we keep neighbours and access routes in mind throughout. Homeowners choose us for reliable workmanship, clean sites and long-lasting results.
Parts of Keston sit on clay-heavy ground, so we design footings and drainage to reduce seasonal movement. Access can be tight on some lanes, while larger plots near Holwood House often suit wider feature builds and retaining edges. We plan deliveries and parking to minimise disruption and keep paths clear. For any boundary walls or front-facing changes, we’ll flag London Borough of Bromley considerations early.

Costs vary by size, access and materials, but typical Keston projects start from £900–£1,800 for small planters or a short wall section. Raised beds are often £1,200–£3,500 depending on height and length. Feature walls, pillars or archways commonly fall between £3,000–£10,000+. Outdoor BBQ areas or fire-pit surrounds are usually £1,500–£6,000. We’ll confirm after a site survey in BR2.
Most smaller builds—planters, steps, short walls or a simple fire-pit area—take 1–3 days. Medium projects such as multiple raised beds, a longer boundary wall or a BBQ area typically take 4–10 days. Larger schemes with retaining walls, pillars, archways and drainage can take 2–4 weeks. Timescales depend on excavation depth, curing time, weather, access for materials, and whether we’re integrating paving or lighting.
Many garden masonry projects are permitted development, especially in rear gardens, but there are limits for wall heights and extra rules near highways or for listed buildings. If your property is in a sensitive location or you’re altering a front boundary, permission may be required. We’ll advise during the survey and can help you check relevant London Borough of Bromley guidance. We also consider drainage and neighbour boundaries as part of the plan.
Yes. Our brickwork and masonry landscaping comes with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship and structural integrity of the build, such as wall stability, bedding and pointing failure due to installation. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, ground movement caused by third-party works, or normal weathering and colour variation. We also use quality, frost-resistant materials and correct foundations to reduce long-term issues. Warranty details are provided in writing with your quote.
We can build in reclaimed or new brick, natural stone (such as sandstone or limestone), and concrete coping and caps for crisp lines. Popular choices include brick pillars with stone caps, curved garden walls, stone feature plinths, and rendered planters for a contemporary look. For BBQ areas and fire pits, we specify heat-tolerant linings and safe clearances. We’ll bring samples, match existing brickwork where possible, and design around your planting and patio layout.
