From garden terraces near Queensway to courtyards by Whiteleys, gabion walls bring a clean, architectural finish with serious strength. They’re ideal for retaining changes in level, forming robust dividers, or building integrated seating and planters. We tailor the stone fill to suit your planting scheme and the character of your outdoor space. For W2 homes, they’re a practical way to gain usable space without bulky masonry.
Bayswater’s mix of stucco townhouses, mansion conversions and period flats often comes with raised patios, basement lightwells and tight rear gardens. We design gabion solutions that respect existing brickwork, railings and heritage details while improving drainage and stability. If your garden backs towards Hyde Park or sits close to Kensington Gardens, we can match tones that complement mature greenery and traditional façades. Our builds suit both contemporary refurbishments and classic layouts.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check drainage, and confirm access for materials. You’ll receive a clear design proposal covering custom sizes, stone options, and add-ons such as lighting or water features. Our team installs with tidy working practices and careful protection of paving, steps and entrances. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, transparent communication, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.

Costs depend on height, length, stone choice and access. As a guide, small decorative dividers or planters often start around £900–£1,800. Retaining gabion walls typically range from £250–£450 per m² installed, rising for complex levels, bespoke seating, lighting, or premium stone fills. Tight access in W2 can increase labour and delivery time. We provide an itemised estimate after a site survey.
Most small gabion features (planters, short dividers, seating) take 1–3 days. Retaining walls usually take 3–7 days, depending on excavation, drainage, and whether we’re integrating steps, lighting or water features. Timescales can extend if access is limited in period properties, or if we need to remove existing structures and dispose of spoil. We’ll confirm a realistic programme before work begins.
Many garden walls and landscaping works are permitted development, but rules can change based on height, proximity to highways, and whether the property is listed or within a conservation area. Parts of Bayswater include heritage-sensitive streets, so it’s important to check. We review your plans against City of Westminster guidance and can advise when a formal application or landlord/freeholder approval is likely. We’ll also help with drawings if needed.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our gabion wall installations, covering issues such as structural movement caused by installation faults, poor fixing, or incorrect drainage detailing. The warranty applies when the wall is used as designed and not altered by third parties. We also use reputable gabion baskets and quality stone fills for long-term performance. Aftercare advice is included, especially for planted sections and lighting.
You can choose from various stone fills, including limestone, granite, flint, recycled brick, or mixed aggregates for a softer, layered look. We offer custom sizes for retaining walls, seating, planters and dividers, plus options like timber or stone caps for comfort. Lighting can be integrated for steps and edges, and gabions can frame simple water features. We’ll recommend combinations that suit your property style and planting palette.
