Gabion walls combine structural strength with a clean, architectural finish—ideal for Tolworth gardens where levels, drainage and boundaries can be tricky. Whether you’re near Tolworth Tower or along Tolworth Broadway, we build features that look intentional and last. Use them as retaining walls, dividers or raised planters to define space without bulky brickwork. The result is a crisp, modern edge that suits both classic and newer properties.
Our team works across KT5 and KT6, with regular projects in Surbiton, Chessington and New Malden. Tolworth’s mix of 1930s semis, post-war houses and modern developments often calls for tailored sizes and careful access planning. We create gabion solutions that fit narrow side returns, stepped patios and shared driveways. Every build is designed to complement your existing paving, fencing and planting scheme.
We start with a site visit to check levels, soil conditions and drainage, then provide a clear design and itemised quote. Installation includes a properly prepared base, secure cages, and stone fills selected for colour, size and durability. If you want lighting, seating tops or integrated planters, we detail these from the outset so the finish is seamless. Homeowners choose us for punctual scheduling, tidy working practices and a 10-year warranty on workmanship.
Across the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, gardens often have variable ground and drainage, especially where levels change between properties. We design bases and backfill to manage water properly and reduce movement over time. Access and parking can be limited on residential streets, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to keep things smooth. Our gabion walls Tolworth area installations are sized to suit typical plots and boundary lines.

Costs depend on height, length, stone type and site access. As a guide, small gabion planters or dividers often start from around £600–£1,200, while retaining sections typically fall in the £250–£450 per linear metre range at standard heights. Larger, engineered retaining walls with steps, seating caps or lighting can be £2,500–£8,000+. We’ll survey levels and provide an itemised quote.
Most small gabion features (planters, short dividers or a bench run) take 1–2 days including base preparation and stone fill. Medium retaining walls are commonly 2–4 days, while complex multi-level gardens with steps, lighting or water features can take a week or more. Timescales depend on excavation, spoil removal, access for materials, and whether we’re tying into existing paving or drainage.
Many garden gabion walls are permitted development, particularly when they’re not fronting a highway and remain within typical height limits. However, rules can change if the wall forms a boundary by a road/footpath, supports significant level changes, or affects drainage and neighbouring land. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and can advise on checking with the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our gabion wall builds, covering installation quality such as base preparation, cage assembly, alignment and stability. The warranty applies when the wall is used as designed and not altered by third parties. We also use durable, galvanised cages and suitable stone fills to reduce corrosion and settlement. If any workmanship-related issues arise, we’ll inspect and put them right.
You can choose from various stone fills such as granite, flint, limestone, recycled brick or mixed river cobbles, depending on the look you want. We build custom sizes for retaining walls, seating, planters, dividers and even water-feature surrounds. Options include timber or stone seating caps, integrated LED lighting, and stepped or curved layouts. We’ll bring samples and recommend combinations that suit your house style and garden palette.
