If you’re improving a garden near Banstead High Street or backing onto Banstead Downs, quality brickwork makes the difference between ‘done’ and ‘designed’. We build garden walls, retaining walls, brick pillars, steps and raised planters that look right from day one and stay that way. Every job is set out accurately, finished neatly and matched to your existing brickwork where needed. We also create practical outdoor features such as BBQ areas and fire pits for year-round use.
The Banstead area includes a mix of large detached houses, 1930s properties and modern executive homes, often with wider plots and long front boundaries. That means brickwork needs strong foundations, consistent levels and a finish that complements the house rather than competing with it. Whether you’re in Nork, Burgh Heath or close to Tattenham Corner, we tailor brick choice, mortar colour and detailing to suit the style of your property. Repointing is also a popular upgrade here, especially where weathering has opened joints on older garden walls.
Our process starts with a site visit to measure, check levels and discuss how you’ll use the space. We provide clear options on brick types, copings, piers and drainage where retaining is required, then schedule the work to minimise disruption. You’ll get tidy workmanship, careful protection of paving and planting, and a clean handover. Local homeowners choose our brickwork contractors Banstead area for reliable timelines, consistent communication and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Across SM7 we often see sloping gardens and exposed downland conditions, so we specify suitable footings, frost-resistant materials and proper weep vents for retaining work. Access can vary from long driveways to tighter side returns, so deliveries and mixing are planned to keep things orderly. We also consider boundary lines, shared walls and visibility from the street when working near pavements. As brickwork contractors in Reigate and Banstead Borough, we build to suit local property styles and practical site constraints.

Medium builds like longer boundary walls, multiple pillars or a BBQ area often take 3–7 days. Retaining walls may take 1–2 weeks depending on excavation, drainage, curing time and spoil removal. Weather, access for materials, and matching bricks can also affect the schedule.
Most garden brickwork is permitted development, but there are limits, especially for front boundary walls next to a highway and for listed buildings or conservation considerations. Heights, visibility splays and boundary ownership can also matter. We’ll talk through what you’re planning, check the likely rules for Reigate and Banstead Borough, and recommend when to confirm with the council. If permission is needed, we can supply drawings and specifications to support an application.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our brickwork workmanship, covering issues such as defective laying, mortar failure due to poor installation, and movement caused by inadequate construction methods. It also includes problems linked to incorrect detailing, such as missing drainage provisions on retaining walls where specified. Normal wear, accidental damage, and issues caused by third-party alterations aren’t covered. We’ll explain care and maintenance so your brickwork stays looking sharp.
We can build in a wide range of facing bricks, reclaimed-style blends, and engineering bricks for strength and damp resistance. Popular finishes include soldier courses, recessed panels, contrasting piers, and copings in brick-on-edge, stone, or concrete. For steps we can add bullnose edges and non-slip treads; for BBQ areas and fire pits we specify heat-resistant linings where required. We’ll help you choose options that suit your home’s style and budget.
