From boundary garden walls to raised planters, our brickwork is designed to look right and perform for years in SE5. We regularly work around Denmark Hill station and King’s College Hospital, where access and parking can be tight and schedules matter. Whether you’re improving a front garden or upgrading a rear patio, we build with careful levels, neat joints and strong foundations. Expect a premium finish that complements your outdoor space rather than overpowering it.
Denmark Hill has a strong mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and purpose-built flats, each with different brick types and detailing. We match existing brickwork where needed, or introduce complementary blends for extensions and garden features. Many properties in Camberwell and Herne Hill benefit from retaining walls and steps to manage level changes. If your existing masonry is tired, we can repoint to restore strength and improve appearance without losing character.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements and clear recommendations on layout, drainage and finishes. We protect surrounding paving and planting, keep work areas organised, and communicate timings so you can plan around daily life. Every build is set out properly, tied in securely and finished with consistent pointing. Homeowners choose us for reliable workmanship, transparent options and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
As brickwork contractors in London Borough of Southwark, we plan for narrow side returns, shared access paths and controlled parking near Maudsley Hospital and Denmark Hill station. Gardens can have mixed ground and made-up layers, so we specify the right footings and drainage for stability. We also consider neighbouring boundaries and party wall implications where relevant. The result is brickwork that suits local property styles and stands up to London weather.

Costs vary by access, foundations and brick choice. As a guide, repointing is often £45–£90 per m² depending on joint depth and preparation. Small garden walls commonly start around £900–£2,500, while retaining walls are typically £200–£450 per m² due to drainage and reinforcement. Brick steps, pillars or planters often fall between £600–£3,500. We provide a detailed, itemised estimate after a site visit.
Many small projects, such as a planter or a short wall, take 1–3 days. Brick steps or pillars often take 2–5 days depending on setting-out, curing time and any demolition. Larger retaining walls, BBQ areas or multiple features can take 1–3 weeks. Timescales depend on access in SE5, weather, ground conditions, and whether we’re matching existing brickwork or waiting for specialist materials to arrive.
Most garden brickwork—such as walls, steps, planters, BBQ areas and fire pits—can be permitted development, but there are important exceptions. Front boundary walls over certain heights, listed buildings, conservation areas and works affecting shared boundaries may require consent or additional checks. We’ll advise on likely requirements and can help you confirm details with Southwark’s guidance before work starts, so you avoid delays or compliance issues.
Yes. Our brickwork comes with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including issues such as failing joints, movement caused by poor construction, or defects linked to installation. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, impact, or problems caused by third-party alterations or severe ground movement outside our control. We also use quality materials and correct detailing—like weep holes and drainage for retaining walls—to reduce future problems and keep your garden structures sound.
We can build in London stock bricks, reclaimed-style blends, engineering bricks for damp-prone areas, or contemporary smooth-faced options. Pointing can be weather-struck, flush or recessed depending on the look you want and exposure. Popular features include brick pillars with coping stones, curved planters, integrated seating, BBQ areas and fire pit surrounds. We’ll help you choose colours, bonds and caps that suit your home and garden layout.
