Whether you’re improving a boundary near King Street or upgrading a courtyard close to Riverside Studios, stonework can transform a space quickly and permanently. We design and build retaining walls for level changes, feature walls for seating areas, and robust garden borders that look right year-round. Our team works across W6 and surrounding streets with careful attention to neighbours, access and finish. Every wall is built for stability first, then refined for visual impact.
Hammersmith’s mix of Victorian terraces, mansion flats and modern riverside developments calls for stonework that suits the architecture. For period homes, we often match proportions and detailing so new walls don’t look “bolted on”. In newer builds, clean lines and consistent coursing can complement contemporary paving and lighting. If you’re near Hammersmith Bridge or along busy routes, we also consider noise reduction and privacy through height, returns and planting integration.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage, and the best footing depth for a long-lasting build. You’ll receive clear options for dry stone, mortared stone, or a hybrid approach, plus guidance on coping stones and finishes. We protect surfaces, keep the site organised, and communicate daily so there are no surprises. Fine Landscaping backs our work with documented standards and a 10-year warranty, which is why local homeowners recommend us.
In the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, access can be tight and parking controlled, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. Many gardens sit on made ground with variable drainage, especially near the river, so we specify appropriate foundations and weep vents for retaining walls. We also account for party boundaries typical of terraces and mansion blocks, keeping lines true and finishes neighbour-friendly. If required, we can provide drawings and specifications suitable for council queries.

Costs vary by stone type, height, access and whether it’s a retaining wall. As a guide, simple mortared garden walls often start around £250–£450 per m², while dry stone can be £300–£550 per m² due to the extra hand-setting. Engineered retaining walls with drainage, reinforcement or complex steps commonly fall in the £450–£900+ per m² range. We’ll confirm after a site survey in the stone walling Hammersmith area.
A small feature wall may take 2–4 days, while a longer boundary wall typically needs 1–2 weeks. Retaining walls can take longer because we allow time for excavation, footings, drainage layers and careful backfilling. Timescales depend on wall length and height, stone choice (dry stone is slower), access for materials, and weather. We provide a realistic programme before starting and keep you updated throughout.
Many garden 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 parts of Hammersmith and Fulham, additional restrictions may apply, especially for prominent front boundaries. We’ll advise on typical limits, check what’s relevant to your address, and can help with drawings or information if an application or consent is needed.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our stone walling workmanship, covering structural integrity issues caused by installation faults, such as movement from inadequate foundations or poor bonding. It also includes defects in pointing or coping installation where applicable. Normal wear, accidental impact damage, and issues caused by third-party works or ground movement outside our control aren’t covered. We’ll explain care and maintenance to keep your wall looking its best.
We build dry stone and mortared stone walls using flint, ragstone, sandstone and limestone, selected to suit your home and garden style. Popular options include crisp ashlar-style faces for modern schemes, traditional random rubble for period terraces, and mixed textures for feature walls. We can add coping stones, piers, recessed lighting details, and integrated planters or seating. We’ll bring samples and recommend finishes that work with your paving and planting.
