Response within 24 hours
Holland Park gardens demand stonework that complements Victorian architecture while handling real-world levels and drainage. We design and build retaining walls, boundary walls and feature walls that sit comfortably alongside properties near Holland Park and the Design Museum. Whether you want a quiet backdrop for planting or a bold statement wall, we tailor the stone, jointing and finish. Every build is set out carefully to keep lines true and proportions in scale.
Local homes in W11 and W14 often include large Victorian houses, mansion conversions and other period properties with established landscaping. That means tight access routes, mature trees, and existing brickwork or terraces that your new wall must tie into neatly. We regularly work across Kensington, Notting Hill and Earl’s Court, matching traditional details without making the garden feel overbuilt. The result is stonework that respects the property and adds value.
We start with a site visit to assess levels, ground conditions and how the wall will be used—supporting soil, creating privacy, or framing planting. You’ll receive clear options for dry stone or mortared construction, plus stone samples where needed. Our team protects paving and planting, keeps the site tidy, and communicates daily progress. Fine Landscaping backs workmanship with a 10-year warranty, which is why homeowners choose us for stone walling holland park area projects.
Working in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea often involves controlled parking, narrow access and careful waste removal planning. Many Holland Park streets have mature root zones and varied ground levels, so we factor in foundations, drainage and tree protection from the outset. We also design wall heights and finishes to sit appropriately with Victorian elevations and garden terraces. This practical local approach keeps stone walling in Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea projects smooth and compliant.

Costs vary by wall height, access, stone choice and whether it’s dry stone or mortared. As a guide, smaller feature walls often start from around £250–£450 per m², while engineered retaining walls with drainage and deeper foundations are commonly £450–£800+ per m². Premium stones such as flint detailing or selected ragstone can increase rates. We provide a detailed, itemised estimate after a site visit.
Most feature walls take 2–5 days, depending on length, stone type and detailing. Retaining walls typically take 1–3 weeks because they require excavation, foundations, drainage, backfilling and curing time for mortared work. Timescales are also affected by access constraints, disposal logistics and any making-good to paving or planting. We confirm a realistic programme before starting and keep you updated throughout.
Many garden walls are permitted development, but rules can change with height, boundary position, listed buildings and conservation areas—common around Holland Park. If the wall fronts a highway or sits near shared boundaries, limits may apply. We’ll flag likely constraints during the survey and can help you check requirements with the council. Where approvals are needed, we can supply drawings and specifications to support an application.
Yes. Our stone walling is covered by a 10-year warranty on workmanship, giving you confidence that the wall is built correctly and will perform as intended. The warranty covers issues linked to installation, such as structural movement caused by poor construction or inadequate drainage detailing. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, extreme ground movement beyond reasonable control, or alterations by others. We also provide care guidance to keep the wall looking its best.
We build with dry stone or mortared stone in flint, ragstone, sandstone and limestone, depending on the look you want and the wall’s function. Popular choices in period gardens include ragstone for a traditional feel, limestone for a cleaner, lighter finish, and flint as a feature panel or detail. We’ll help you choose coping styles, joint finishes and wall thickness, and ensure the design suits your planting and levels.
