Gabion walls bring structure and style to compact courtyards and roof terraces across W2, from Bayswater to Little Venice. Whether you need a retaining wall to manage level changes or a smart divider to zone a patio, gabions deliver strength with a contemporary look. We regularly work near Paddington Station and around Paddington Basin, where access and noise control matter. Expect crisp lines, clean edges and stone fills chosen to complement your home.
The Paddington area mixes stucco townhouses, mansion flats and modern apartments, each with different outdoor constraints. We design gabion solutions that suit narrow side returns, basement gardens and communal spaces, without overwhelming the architecture. For period façades, we often specify warm-toned stone and slimmer profiles; for newer builds, larger baskets and bold aggregates can look superb. If you’re close to Hyde Park or Maida Vale, we can also integrate seating and planters to maximise usable space.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels check and a clear design proposal covering basket sizes, stone type and drainage. We handle delivery logistics, protect existing paving, and build on a properly prepared base for long-term stability. You’ll get straightforward communication, tidy workmanship and a finish that’s built to last. Local homeowners choose us for dependable timelines, premium materials and a 10-year warranty on workmanship.
Projects in gabion walls in City of Westminster often involve limited access, controlled parking and strict working hours. Around Marylebone and Paddington Basin, we plan deliveries, waste removal and on-site storage carefully to keep disruption low. Ground conditions can vary from made ground to compacted sub-bases in paved courtyards, so we specify the right foundations and geotextiles. We also design with neighbouring sightlines and shared boundaries in mind.

Many garden walls and landscaping works are permitted development, but rules can change based on wall height, proximity to highways, listed buildings and conservation areas. In parts of Paddington and the wider City of Westminster, additional controls may apply, especially for front boundaries. We’ll flag any likely planning considerations during the survey and can help you check with the council if needed before you commit to the build.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our gabion wall installations, covering construction quality, fixings, and correct assembly to the agreed specification. This includes issues caused by installation defects, such as movement from inadequate base preparation. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or extreme events beyond reasonable control. We also use reputable gabion baskets and quality stone fills for long-term performance.
You can choose from various stone fills, including granite, limestone, flint, recycled brick and mixed river cobbles, depending on the look you want. Basket sizes can be tailored for retaining walls, seating blocks, planters, water-feature surrounds or privacy dividers. We can also add timber or stone caps for comfort and integrate low-voltage lighting for steps and edges. We’ll recommend options that suit your property style and maintenance preferences.
