Lewisham homeowners use brickwork to add structure, privacy and value to outdoor space. Whether you’re near Lewisham station or closer to Mountsfield Park, we build brick features that look right and last. Our team designs and constructs garden walls, planters and steps with careful levels, drainage and detailing. We also create BBQ areas and fire pits for gardens that work all year round.
Across SE13 and nearby Blackheath, Ladywell, Hither Green and Lee, we regularly work on Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and newer developments. Period properties often need brick matching and sympathetic mortar colours, especially where original features remain. Modern gardens typically benefit from clean lines, raised planters and retaining walls to manage levels. We tailor the brick bond, coping style and finishes to suit the architecture and your layout.
We start with a site visit to check levels, access and existing brick condition, then provide a clear written quote and schedule. Work is set out accurately, built on proper footings where required, and finished with neat joints and clean edges. If repointing is needed, we rake out carefully and repoint to protect the wall without damaging bricks. Homeowners choose us for punctuality, respectful neighbours-first working, and a 10-year warranty on qualifying workmanship.
Lewisham gardens can involve tight side access, shared boundaries and limited parking, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Near the River Ravensbourne, ground can be softer, making correct foundations and drainage especially important for retaining walls and pillars. We also consider conservation sensitivities in parts of the London Borough of Lewisham and keep detailing in keeping with local streetscapes. Our brickwork contractors lewisham area approach is practical, compliant and built to last.

Costs vary by access, foundations and brick choice. As a guide in Lewisham, repointing is often £45–£80 per m², while small garden walls commonly start around £900–£2,500. Retaining walls and brick pillars typically range from £1,800–£6,000+ depending on height, drainage and engineering. Steps, planters and BBQ/fire pit areas usually fall between £1,200–£4,500. We’ll survey and itemise everything before starting.
Many small jobs take 1–3 days, such as a planter, short wall repairs or a simple step set. A new garden wall or small BBQ area is often 3–7 days, depending on footings and curing time. Larger retaining walls or multiple features can take 1–3 weeks, especially where drainage, excavation and waste removal are involved. Access in SE13, weather, and brick availability can also affect the programme.
Most garden brickwork is permitted development, but there are common exceptions. Front boundary walls over 1m (or 2m elsewhere), work near highways, listed buildings, and some conservation areas may need consent. Retaining walls can also require extra consideration if they affect neighbouring land or drainage. We’ll advise during the survey, check the London Borough of Lewisham guidance where relevant, and recommend drawings or applications if needed.
Yes. Our brickwork is backed by a 10-year warranty on qualifying workmanship, covering issues such as structural failure caused by installation defects, unstable construction, or premature joint deterioration from incorrect preparation. It also reflects our standards for foundations, levels and drainage where specified. Normal wear, accidental damage, movement from external factors, and pre-existing structural problems aren’t covered. We’ll explain what’s included for your specific project in writing.
We can match existing bricks or introduce complementary options such as London stock, reclaimed yellow, red multi, or engineering bricks for durability. Popular finishes include soldier-course caps, coping stones, bullnose steps, and contrasting bands for modern gardens. For repointing, we select mortar colour and profile to suit the property. We’ll bring samples, discuss bonds and detailing, and help you choose a design that fits your budget and maintenance preferences. Our brickwork contractors in London Borough of Lewisham service covers both traditional and contemporary styles.
