New Cross gardens often need structure as much as planting, especially where levels change or boundaries feel tired. We create garden walls, planters, raised beds and stone features that look right alongside Victorian brickwork and modern conversions. Working near New Cross station and Deptford Park, we’re used to tight access and busy streets. Every build is designed to improve how you use the space, not just how it looks.
Around SE14 you’ll find Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and converted flats, each with different proportions and constraints. We match brick colour, mortar tone and detailing so new work blends with existing façades and boundary lines. For compact courtyards in Deptford or larger plots towards Brockley and Nunhead, we tailor wall heights, coping choices and drainage details. The result is masonry that feels original to the property rather than added on.
We start with a site visit, measurements and a practical design that considers levels, water run-off and access for materials. You’ll receive a clear scope of works, an agreed schedule, and workmanship that prioritises clean edges and stable foundations. Our builds are fully insured, carried out by experienced bricklayers, and finished with careful pointing and tidy clean-downs. Local homeowners choose us for reliable timelines, honest advice and long-term durability.
New Cross sites can involve mixed ground, old garden fill and shared boundaries, so we assess foundations carefully before building. Parking and deliveries around SE14 can be tricky, particularly near Goldsmiths University, so we plan drop-offs and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also account for narrow side returns and stepped access common to terraces. Our detailing is chosen to handle London weather and keep walls and features looking sharp year-round.

Costs vary with access, foundations, and finishes. As a guide in SE14, small brick planters or raised beds often start from £600–£1,500, while garden walls commonly range £180–£300 per m² depending on brick choice and coping. Brick pillars, archways, or stone features may be £900–£3,500+. BBQ areas and fire pits typically fall between £1,200–£4,000 based on specification.
Most small builds, such as a planter set or a compact fire pit, take 1–3 days. A new boundary wall or multiple raised beds usually takes 3–7 days, while larger schemes with pillars, archways, and stonework can run 1–3 weeks. Timescales depend on ground preparation, curing time, weather, and access for materials. We confirm a realistic programme after the site survey.
Many garden masonry projects are permitted development, but there are important exceptions. Boundary walls facing a highway, significant height changes, listed buildings, and conservation area constraints can trigger permissions or extra checks. If your property is near key routes or you’re altering a front boundary, we’ll advise on likely requirements and help you confirm with the London Borough of Lewisham. We also consider party wall matters where relevant.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our brickwork and masonry landscaping, covering issues such as structural failure due to installation, poor pointing, or defective build methods. It’s designed for peace of mind on walls, raised beds, pillars and built features. Normal wear, accidental damage, or problems caused by third-party alterations aren’t included. We also use quality materials and proven construction methods to reduce future maintenance.
We can match or contrast existing brickwork using London stock-style bricks, reclaimed options, or contemporary smooth-face bricks. Popular choices include stone coping, bullnose edging, recessed or flush pointing, and integrated seating to raised beds. For BBQ areas and fire pits, we specify heat-resistant linings and durable worktops. We’ll guide you on proportions, finishes, and practical details like drainage and access, then provide samples where possible.
