Earl's Court gardens often need brickwork that complements Victorian architecture while standing up to busy London living. We design and build garden walls, retaining walls, steps, brick pillars, planters, BBQ areas and fire pits with a premium finish. Whether you’re near Earl's Court tube station or close to Philbeach Gardens, we’ll match materials and detailing to your setting. Our team also handles repointing to restore tired joints and prevent water ingress.
The SW5 area includes Victorian mansion conversions, period flats and garden square properties where space, access and aesthetics matter. We regularly work across Kensington, West Brompton and Fulham, creating brickwork that looks original rather than “added on”. If your property has older brickwork, we can source sympathetic bricks and mortar tones for seamless repairs. For newer refurbishments, we can introduce clean contemporary lines without losing the character of the building.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage, existing masonry condition and access routes. You’ll receive a clear scope of works, material options and a practical programme before we begin. Our bricklayers protect surrounding paving and planting, keep the site tidy, and finish with careful jointing and clean edges. Fine Landscaping is based 35 minutes away, so you get responsive support and consistent quality control.
In the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, access can be tight and parking restrictions are common, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Many Earl's Court properties have older brickwork that benefits from breathable repointing and sympathetic repairs rather than hard cement mortars. We also account for changes in level typical of garden square layouts, designing retaining solutions that manage water properly. Where boundaries are close, we build precisely to agreed lines and keep neighbours in mind.

Costs vary with access, foundations, brick type and detailing. As a guide, repointing is often £45–£85 per m², while small garden walls commonly start around £1,200–£2,500. Steps, pillars and planters typically range from £900–£4,000 depending on size and finish. Retaining walls and BBQ/fire pit builds can be £2,500–£10,000+ where engineering and drainage are required.
Most small builds such as planters, pillars or a short wall take 1–3 days once materials are on site. Steps, larger boundary walls or a BBQ area usually take 3–7 working days. Retaining walls can take 1–2 weeks depending on excavation, drainage, curing time and any steel reinforcement. Timescales also depend on access in SW5, weather, and whether we’re matching existing brickwork or carrying out repointing first.
Many garden walls, steps, planters and repairs are permitted development, but there are important exceptions. Rules can apply to wall height near highways, listed buildings, conservation areas and changes to front boundaries. In Kensington and Chelsea, it’s sensible to check early if your property has restrictions or if the work affects shared boundaries. We’ll flag likely issues, advise on what’s normally required, and support you with drawings or details if an application is needed.
Yes. Our brickwork comes with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including structural integrity of the build and failure due to poor installation. It includes issues such as loose bricks, defective pointing and movement caused by incorrect foundations or drainage design. Normal wear, accidental damage and problems caused by third-party alterations aren’t covered. We also provide care guidance, especially for new pointing and freshly built features during the first few weeks.
We can build in London stock-style bricks, reclaimed bricks for period matching, or crisp contemporary facing bricks depending on your property. Popular finishes include flush or weather-struck pointing, brick-on-edge copings, stone or concrete caps, and integrated lighting or seating to planters. For BBQ areas and fire pits, we specify heat-resistant components where needed. We’ll bring samples, advise on colour and texture, and design proportions to suit Victorian elevations and compact gardens.
