Whether you want a smart front boundary or a robust retaining wall, we build stonework that suits Addiscombe’s residential streets and gardens. We regularly work around CR0, including routes near Addiscombe tram stop and green spaces such as Ashburton Park. Our walls are designed to handle everyday knocks, changing weather and the practical needs of family gardens. Expect neat lines, well-chosen stone and clean finishes.
Addiscombe has a mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and 1930s semis, each with different levels, plot widths and access points. We tailor heights, copings and pier details so new walls complement original brickwork and period features rather than fighting them. For tighter side returns and shared boundaries, we plan deliveries and mixing areas carefully to keep disruption down. If you’re in East Croydon or Shirley, we can match styles commonly seen on neighbouring properties.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage and the purpose of the wall, then recommend the right build method and stone type. You’ll receive a clear specification covering foundations, wall thickness, coping and finishes, with tidy workmanship throughout. Our team is local (around 10 minutes away), so aftercare is straightforward and responsive. Homeowners choose us for consistent communication, safe working practices and stonework that stays true.
In the London Borough of Croydon, gardens often have level changes and mixed ground, so we size footings and drainage to suit.

Where boundaries are close to paths or neighbouring fences, we keep lines accurate and finishes tidy. This is stone walling addiscombe area homeowners rely on for practical, long-term results.

Costs vary by stone type, height, access and whether it’s dry stone or mortared. As a guide, small feature walls often start from around £900–£2,000. Boundary walls are commonly £180–£350 per linear metre, while retaining walls with drainage and deeper foundations can be £250–£500+ per linear metre. We’ll confirm a tailored range after measuring, checking levels and discussing finishes.
Most small feature walls take 1–3 days, while a typical boundary wall may take 3–7 days depending on length and detailing. Retaining walls usually take longer (often 1–2 weeks) because of excavation, drainage, foundations and curing time for mortared work. Timescales are affected by access, weather, stone availability, and whether we’re matching existing materials or working around services and steps.
Many garden and boundary walls are permitted development, but rules can change depending on height, whether the wall fronts a highway, and if the property is listed or in a conservation area. In Croydon, front boundary height limits and visibility near junctions can be important. We’ll flag likely constraints during the survey and, if needed, help you check requirements with the London Borough of Croydon before work begins.
Yes. Our stonework is backed by a 10-year warranty covering structural integrity and workmanship, including issues such as movement caused by poor construction or inadequate foundations. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, impact, or problems caused by third-party alterations and ground works nearby. We also advise on simple maintenance, such as keeping drainage outlets clear on retaining walls, to protect performance long term.
We build dry stone walls for a traditional look and excellent drainage, and mortared stone walls for crisp lines and higher boundaries. Popular choices include flint panels, ragstone for a Kent/South London feel, and sandstone or limestone for a cleaner contemporary finish. We can add copings, piers, curves, steps and integrated planters. For stone walling in London Borough of Croydon, we’ll help you choose a style that suits your home and budget.
