From garden boundaries near Kennington Park to privacy walls around Oval, well-built stonework adds value and definition. We design and construct retaining walls, feature walls and traditional boundary walls using carefully selected stone. Expect crisp lines, tidy pointing where required, and a finish that complements your outdoor space. We regularly work across SE11 with access and neighbour considerations in mind.
Kennington’s Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and mansion blocks often need sympathetic detailing rather than off-the-shelf brickwork. Our stone walling Kennington area service is ideal for front garden walls, raised planters, steps and terrace retaining edges. We match proportions and coping styles to period facades while keeping the build practical for modern living. If you’re renovating near Elephant & Castle or Vauxhall, we can coordinate with other trades and tight timelines.
We start with a site visit to assess levels, drainage and foundations, then provide a clear written specification and options for stone type and finish. Every wall is built for stability, with proper footings, weep holes and reinforcement where needed. Our team protects paving and planting, keeps the site organised, and communicates daily progress. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clean workmanship and a 10-year warranty on qualifying builds.
Kennington sites often have restricted access, controlled parking and shared boundaries, especially around Kennington tube station and the Georgian squares. We plan deliveries, lifting and waste removal to minimise disruption and protect communal areas. Ground conditions and level changes can vary between rear gardens and basement front areas, so we design foundations and drainage accordingly. Where Lambeth guidance applies, we help you stay compliant without delaying the build.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs in SE11 vary by stone type, wall height, foundations and access. As a guide, mortared stone walls often start around £250–£450 per m², while dry stone can be £300–£550 per m² due to skilled hand selection and fitting. Retaining walls with drainage and reinforcement may range from £450–£900 per m². We’ll confirm pricing after a site survey and design specification.
Most small boundary or feature walls take 2–5 days, depending on length, height and whether foundations are already in place. Retaining walls typically take 1–2 weeks because they require excavation, footings, drainage layers and curing time for mortar. Timings can also be affected by access in Kennington, delivery restrictions, and the complexity of corners, piers, copings and steps. We provide a programme before work begins.
Many garden walls are permitted development, but rules can change based on height, position next to a highway, and whether the property is listed or in a conservation area. In Lambeth, front boundary walls and works affecting visibility or public safety can attract extra scrutiny. We’ll advise on typical limits, check local constraints, and help you confirm requirements before construction so you avoid enforcement issues later.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying stone walling, covering structural workmanship such as stability, bonding/laying and failures caused by installation defects. It also includes issues linked to specified drainage details where these are part of the agreed design. The warranty does not cover accidental damage, ground movement beyond reasonable expectation, or alterations by others. You’ll receive a written scope so you know exactly what’s protected.
We build dry stone and mortared stone walls in flint, ragstone, sandstone and limestone, with coping options such as sawn stone, half-round, or brick-on-edge where appropriate. Popular choices in Kennington include ragstone for a traditional look and limestone for a cleaner, contemporary finish. We can add piers, recessed panels, raised planters and retaining steps. We’ll recommend the best option for budget, maintenance and the style of your property.
