Honor Oak’s sloping streets and varied plots make good brickwork a practical upgrade, not just a visual one. We build garden walls, steps, pillars and planters that look right from day one and stay solid through wet winters. If you’re near Honor Oak Park station or walking routes around One Tree Hill, we can assess access and levels quickly. Fine Landscaping brings skilled masonry to SE23 gardens with a focus on neat detailing and durability.
Local homes here range from Victorian terraces to Edwardian houses and 1930s semis, each with different brick tones, boundary heights and path layouts. We regularly match new work to existing brickwork, coping stones and pointing styles so extensions and repairs don’t stand out. For tighter gardens in Forest Hill or Brockley, we design compact solutions such as raised planters and space-saving steps. Where plots drop away, retaining walls are engineered for stability and drainage, not guesswork.
We start with a site visit, measure-up and a clear written scope covering foundations, drainage and finishes. Every build is set out carefully, with levels checked throughout and tidy working practices to minimise disruption. You’ll get honest advice on what can be repaired (repointing) versus what should be rebuilt for safety. Homeowners choose our brickwork contractors honor oak area because we turn up when we say we will and leave the site clean.
Honor Oak’s gradients and mixed soil conditions mean foundations and drainage matter, especially for retaining walls and steps. Access can be tight on residential roads around SE23, so we plan deliveries, parking and waste removal to keep things smooth. We also consider boundary heights, sight lines and neighbour proximity typical of Lewisham terraces and semis. If approvals are needed, our brickwork contractors in London Borough of Lewisham help you stay compliant.

Costs vary with access, brick choice and groundwork. As a guide, small repointing repairs often start around £300–£900, while a short garden wall may be £1,200–£3,000 depending on height and foundations. Retaining walls and steps commonly fall between £2,500–£8,000+ due to excavation and drainage. Brick pillars, planters, BBQ areas and fire pits are usually priced after a site visit and design.
Many smaller builds, such as a planter or a pair of brick pillars, can be completed in 1–3 days. A garden wall typically takes 2–5 days, while steps and retaining walls often take 1–2 weeks depending on excavation, drainage and curing time. Timescales are affected by access in SE23, weather, demolition requirements and whether we’re matching existing brickwork or integrating lighting, paving or metalwork.
Most garden brickwork such as low walls, planters, steps and BBQ areas is usually permitted development, but there are exceptions. Wall height rules can change depending on whether the wall fronts a highway, and conservation areas or listed buildings may add restrictions. We’ll ask the right questions, check the basics and advise if you should confirm with Lewisham Council before work starts. We can also build to comply with any conditions.
Yes. Our brickwork is covered by a 10-year warranty on workmanship for structural integrity, including issues arising from installation such as defective pointing, unstable courses or avoidable movement caused by poor construction. Materials are covered by their manufacturer warranties where applicable. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, impact, or movement caused by unrelated groundworks or tree roots outside the agreed scope. We also provide care guidance to keep brickwork looking sharp.
We can build with London stock-style bricks, reclaimed bricks for period homes, or modern wirecut bricks for a crisp finish. Popular options include soldier courses, recessed or flush pointing, contrasting copings, and brick-on-edge details for steps and planters. For features, we create BBQ areas, seating walls and fire pits with heat-resistant liners where needed. We’ll help you choose colours and textures that suit your property and garden layout in SE23.
