Sloping plots and raised patios are common around Parsons Green and towards Bishops Park, and a well-built retaining wall can turn awkward levels into usable space. We design and construct retaining walls that prevent soil movement, manage water and create clean edges for lawns, planting and paving. Whether you’re upgrading a small courtyard or reshaping a larger riverside garden, we tailor the build to your layout and finishes. We also coordinate access and deliveries around busy SW6 streets.
Fulham’s mix of Victorian terraces, mansion flats and modern riverside apartments often means tight side returns, basement lightwells and shared boundaries. We’re used to working carefully near neighbouring foundations and party walls, keeping lines true and finishes crisp. Our team regularly delivers retaining walls Fulham area homeowners choose for both strength and aesthetics. If your garden needs terracing for seating, steps or raised beds, we’ll propose levels that suit how you actually use the space.
We start with a site visit to assess levels, loads and drainage routes, then provide a clear specification for materials, foundations and backfill. Every wall is built with the right retaining structure, weep/land drains where required, and tidy detailing to match your paving or brickwork. You’ll get a written programme, clean working practices and regular updates from a dedicated lead. Homeowners trust us for retaining walls in London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham because we build to last, not just to look good.
In the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, access can be restricted by narrow passages, resident parking controls and timed deliveries near Fulham Broadway. We plan logistics, protect communal areas and keep materials organised to minimise disruption. Ground conditions and high water tables closer to the Thames can make drainage design especially important, so we specify the right backfill and land drains. We also match brick tones and coping details to local Victorian façades and garden walls.

Costs vary by height, length, access and whether engineering/drainage is needed. As a guide, sleeper walls often start around £250–£450 per linear metre, while brick or block retaining walls commonly range from £400–£800+ per linear metre. Stone facing, coping, steps and complex terracing can push higher. We’ll survey levels, check loads and provide a detailed, itemised quotation for your SW6 property.
A small garden retaining wall can take 2–5 days, while larger terracing projects typically run 1–3 weeks. Timescales depend on excavation volume, spoil removal, curing time for concrete, drainage installation and access constraints (common with Fulham side returns). Weather and any hidden issues—such as old foundations or services—can also affect the programme. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after the site assessment.
Many garden retaining walls are permitted development, especially when they’re not adjacent to a highway and don’t create significant changes to boundary height. However, rules can differ for listed buildings, conservation areas, basement works, or if the wall forms part of a boundary facing a road. We’ll flag likely permissions, advise on party wall considerations, and can help you prepare information for the council if needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our retaining wall workmanship, covering structural integrity when the wall is built to our specification and maintained sensibly. This includes foundations, core structure and installation of specified drainage components. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from third-party works, impact, or major ground movement outside the designed scope. You’ll also receive clear aftercare guidance to keep your wall performing well.
We build brick walls to match existing garden boundaries, stone walls for a premium finish, sleeper walls for a warm contemporary look, and block walls with render or cladding. Gabion walls are ideal for modern schemes and excellent drainage. We also design stepped walls, curved runs, integrated seating and raised planters. We’ll recommend the best option based on height, loading, drainage needs and the style of your Fulham garden.
