If your garden needs structure, privacy or a smarter finish, our brickwork team can help. We build garden walls, retaining walls, brick pillars, steps and raised planters designed to suit Keston’s plots and levels. Many clients near Keston Common and Keston Ponds ask for neat boundary walls and safe, even steps to patios. Every build is set out accurately, so it looks right from day one and stays that way.
Keston has a mix of period cottages, large detached houses and country homes where brickwork needs to complement existing character. We match brick tones, joint profiles and coping details so new work sits comfortably alongside older masonry. For properties around Hayes, Farnborough and Downe, we often improve access with brick steps and landings, or create practical planting levels with retaining walls. If you’re refreshing tired mortar, our repointing restores strength and appearance without overworking the brick faces.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear recommendation on foundations, drainage and finishes. You’ll receive an itemised quote, agreed timescales and a tidy-work plan to keep disruption low. Our bricklayers use proven methods for stability and weather resistance, including correct footings, weep vents where needed and durable jointing. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, respectful crews and a 10-year warranty on our brickwork installations.
As brickwork contractors in London Borough of Bromley, we’re used to varied ground conditions and level changes across BR2 gardens. Access can be tight on quieter lanes, so we plan deliveries, parking and waste removal to keep things smooth. We also account for nearby trees and roots when specifying foundations and retaining details. The result is brickwork that looks refined and performs well through wet winters and dry spells.

Costs depend on size, access and the type of build. As a guide, repointing often ranges from £40–£80 per m², while small garden walls commonly start around £900–£2,500. Retaining walls, steps, pillars or planters typically fall between £1,500–£6,000+, especially where foundations and drainage are required. BBQ areas and fire pits vary widely, usually £800–£3,500 depending on specification and finishes.
Many small projects, such as a planter, a short wall section or repointing a small area, take 1–3 days. A larger garden wall, steps with landings, or a retaining wall with drainage is often 4–10 working days. Timescales depend on excavation depth, curing time for concrete, weather, access for materials, and whether we’re matching existing brickwork. We confirm a realistic programme after the site survey.
Most garden brickwork is permitted development, but there are exceptions. Front boundary walls over certain heights, work near highways, listed buildings, and some conservation considerations can trigger permission or extra rules. Retaining walls may also need careful checks if they affect neighbouring land or drainage. We’ll advise what’s likely to apply in Bromley, and we can help you confirm requirements before work starts so there are no surprises.
Yes. Our brickwork installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship-related issues such as structural failure due to incorrect construction, defective jointing, or problems arising from improper foundations or drainage details we’ve specified. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, movement caused by third-party works, or extreme events beyond reasonable control. We also provide care guidance to keep brickwork looking sharp and performing well long term.
We can build in a wide range of bricks, including traditional reds, multi-stock blends, and contemporary grey tones, with mortar colours to match. Popular details include soldier courses, recessed panels, coping stones, pier caps and contrasting brick bands. For outdoor living, we design BBQ areas and fire pits with heat-resistant linings and practical worktop space. We’ll bring options to your survey and help choose a style that suits your home and budget.
