West Dulwich gardens often need strong, well-proportioned hard landscaping to match the area’s mature planting and period architecture. Whether you’re near West Dulwich station or walking distance from Belair Park, we create garden walls, archways and planters that bring shape and function to outdoor spaces. Our team builds everything from neat brick pillars to statement stone features. The result is a garden that feels finished, practical and easy to maintain.
Homes across SE21 include Victorian villas, Edwardian houses and smart period conversions, each with their own proportions and boundary details. We design brickwork to complement existing brick bonds, coping styles and pointing colours, so new work doesn’t look “bolted on”. For smaller plots around Dulwich Village or busier roads, we can use raised beds and built-in seating to maximise usable space. If you want a feature area, we also construct BBQ areas and fire pits with safe clearances and durable hearths.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage and access, then provide a clear written quote and schedule. Every build is set out carefully, with proper footings, frost-resistant materials and tidy, consistent pointing. We keep disruption low, protect surrounding paving and planting, and leave the site clean each day. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, premium finishes and a 10-year workmanship warranty.
In the brickwork & masonry landscaping west dulwich area, access can be tight and parking controlled, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Many gardens sit on mixed London soils, so we size foundations to suit and manage drainage around raised beds and walls. We’re used to working around mature trees near Dulwich Wood and existing boundary lines common to period plots. For brickwork & masonry landscaping in London Borough of Lambeth, we also check any constraints that may affect boundary heights or frontage changes.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary by size, access and materials, but as a guide: small brick planters or raised beds often start from £900–£2,500. Garden walls commonly range £180–£350 per m² depending on footing depth, height and finishes. Feature builds like BBQ areas or fire pits typically fall between £2,500–£8,000+. We’ll survey levels and ground conditions before confirming a detailed, itemised quote.
Most smaller builds, such as planters, raised beds or a modest fire pit area, take 2–5 days. A longer garden wall with foundations and coping can take 1–2 weeks, while multi-element projects (walls, steps, pillars and a BBQ zone) may run 2–4 weeks. Timescales depend on access, weather, curing time for mortar and concrete, and whether we’re integrating drainage or lighting.
Many garden masonry projects are permitted development, especially within rear gardens and below certain height limits. However, rules can change for front boundaries, corner plots, listed buildings and conservation areas, and there may be restrictions near highways or shared boundaries. We’ll flag likely requirements during the site visit and can work from approved drawings if needed. When in doubt, we recommend confirming with Lambeth Council before starting.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our brickwork and masonry landscaping, covering issues linked to installation such as unstable construction, defective pointing, or failures caused by poor setting-out or inadequate footings. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or problems caused by third-party alterations or extreme events. We also use quality, frost-resistant bricks and appropriate mortars to help ensure long-term durability in outdoor conditions.
Options include stock bricks, reclaimed-style bricks, and contrasting engineering bricks for coping and detailing. For stone features, we can use natural stone slabs, setts or porcelain coping for a crisp edge. Popular designs in SE21 include brick pillars with caps, curved planters, raised beds with seating ledges, and arched openings for garden zoning. We’ll help you choose colours, bonds and finishes that suit your property and the look you want.
