If your garden needs structure, privacy or a smarter layout, our brickwork team can help. We build garden walls, retaining walls, brick pillars, steps and raised planters that look right at home around Lordship Lane and SE22. Want a social space? We also create brick BBQ areas and fire pits designed for safe, practical use. Every build is set out carefully so it feels intentional, not “added on”.
East Dulwich has plenty of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period conversions, and the brickwork needs to match their character. We source bricks and mortar tones that blend with existing elevations and boundary walls, keeping details sharp around coping stones, piers and returns. Whether you’re near Dulwich Park or closer to Peckham Rye, we plan levels and drainage so walls and steps stay stable. The result is brickwork that complements your property rather than competing with it.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements and a clear written scope, then we agree materials, bond patterns and finishes. We prepare proper footings, use consistent jointing, and keep the site tidy throughout—especially important for family gardens and shared access paths. Homeowners choose us for straightforward communication, reliable scheduling and workmanship that stands up to London weather. All brickwork is completed to a high standard and backed by a long-term warranty for peace of mind.
The brickwork contractors east dulwich area rely on must account for tight side access, on-street parking and considerate working hours. In the London Borough of Southwark, we also keep an eye on boundary heights, party wall considerations and conservation sensitivities near period streets. Ground conditions can vary between gardens, so we size foundations and drainage to suit. We plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption on busy roads like Lordship Lane.

Costs depend on size, access and the type of build. As a guide, repointing often starts around £45–£90 per m², while small garden walls commonly fall between £900–£2,500. Retaining walls, steps or brick pillars can range from £1,800–£6,000+ depending on footing depth, drainage and finishes. BBQ areas and fire pits typically start from £1,200–£3,500. We provide a detailed, itemised estimate after a survey.
Most small projects, such as a planter or a short wall, take 1–3 days once materials are on site. Steps, pillars and larger walls commonly take 3–7 days, while retaining walls or combined builds can run 1–2 weeks. Timescales vary with access, curing time for foundations, weather, and whether we’re matching existing brickwork. We’ll confirm a realistic programme before starting and keep you updated throughout.
Many garden brickwork projects are permitted development, especially repairs, repointing, planters and low walls. However, rules can apply to boundary wall heights, listed buildings, conservation areas, and works affecting shared boundaries. If you’re adding a tall wall, changing a front boundary, or building near a highway, it’s worth checking. We’ll flag likely requirements during the survey and can help you understand what Southwark Council may expect before you commit.
Yes. Our brickwork is covered by a 10-year warranty on workmanship, giving you confidence that walls, steps and built features are constructed correctly. The warranty covers issues caused by installation faults, such as poor bonding, inadequate foundations, or defective jointing. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or normal ageing, and materials are subject to manufacturer terms where applicable. We also provide care advice to help your brickwork stay looking sharp.
We can build in reclaimed-style or new bricks, with popular choices including London stock, red multi, and engineering bricks for damp-prone areas. Joint finishes can be flush, bucket-handle or weather-struck, and we can add coping stones, brick-on-edge details, or contrasting soldier courses. For fire pits and BBQ areas, we specify heat-appropriate components and safe clearances. We’ll bring samples, discuss bond patterns, and design around your garden layout and existing brickwork.
