Fine Landscaping delivers premium brickwork for homeowners across Woolwich, SE18. From tidy front garden walls to robust retaining walls, we build features that look sharp and last. Many clients near Royal Arsenal and Woolwich Town Centre ask us to create clean boundaries, safer access steps and low-maintenance raised planters. We also construct BBQ areas and fire pits for gardens that get used year-round.
Woolwich’s mix of Victorian terraces, converted arsenal buildings and modern apartments means brickwork needs to be carefully matched. We source bricks and pointing styles that complement period façades, while keeping lines crisp for contemporary plots. In nearby Plumstead and Charlton, we often improve sloping gardens with retaining walls and brick steps that feel original to the property. Where space is tight, we design compact planters and pillars that add structure without crowding the garden.
Our process starts with a site visit to measure levels, check access and agree the finish. We provide a clear written scope, then build on proper footings with neat jointing and consistent courses. If existing brickwork is sound, we can repoint to restore strength and appearance without unnecessary rebuilds. Homeowners choose our brickwork contractors Woolwich area for reliable scheduling, tidy working practices and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Access and parking can be challenging around Woolwich Ferry routes and busy streets, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Ground levels vary, especially where gardens drop away, so we factor in footings, drainage and retaining details from the start. We also consider boundary heights and visibility where properties meet pavements or shared paths. As brickwork contractors in Royal Borough of Greenwich, we can advise on finishes that suit local streetscapes and regeneration-era developments.

Many small jobs, such as repointing a section or building a compact planter, take 1–2 days. A new garden wall or set of steps is often 2–5 days, while retaining walls and multi-feature builds can take 1–3 weeks. Timescales depend on excavation depth, curing time for footings, access for materials, and weather. We’ll confirm a realistic programme before starting and keep disruption controlled.
Most garden brickwork is permitted development, but there are important exceptions. Front boundary walls next to a highway have height limits, and listed buildings or conservation considerations can change what’s allowed. Retaining walls may also need extra checks if they affect neighbouring land or drainage. We’ll talk through the rules for your site in Woolwich, review boundary positions, and advise if you should contact the Royal Borough of Greenwich before work begins.
Yes. Our brickwork is covered by a 10-year warranty on workmanship, giving you confidence that walls, steps, pillars and built features are built correctly. The warranty covers issues caused by installation faults, such as poor bonding, inadequate footings, or defective jointing. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or movement caused by external factors like major groundworks by others. We also provide care guidance to help your brickwork stay looking its best.
We can match existing brickwork or create a contrasting feature using London stock-style bricks, smooth contemporary bricks, or reclaimed options where suitable. Popular choices include soldier-course caps, coping stones, recessed or flush pointing, and brick-on-edge details for steps. For planters and BBQ areas, we can incorporate stone copings, porcelain paving interfaces, and heat-resistant linings where needed. We’ll help you choose a design that fits your property style, budget and maintenance preferences.
