Fine Landscaping designs and builds stone walls that add structure, privacy and long-term value to gardens across SW16. Whether you’re near Pollards Hill Library or walking distance from Pollards Hill Recreation Ground, we’ll create a wall that complements your outdoor space and planting. Choose a crisp mortared finish for a clean, architectural look, or a dry stone build for a more natural character. We also construct retaining walls to manage level changes safely and neatly.
Homes around Pollards Hill include plenty of 1930s semis, post-war housing and maisonettes, often with front gardens, side access and sloping lawns. We tailor stone walling to these layouts—keeping entrances clear, matching existing brickwork and improving boundaries without overwhelming smaller plots. If you’re comparing options for the stone walling Pollards Hill area, we’ll guide you on height, coping details and drainage so the wall performs as well as it looks. Our finishes suit everything from tidy contemporary patios to traditional cottage-style planting schemes.
We start with a site visit to check levels, footing requirements and any retaining loads, then provide a clear written quotation. Every wall is built with proper foundations, alignment and (where needed) weep holes and drainage to prevent water pressure. Neighbours value our tidy working practices, careful material handling and reliable scheduling—especially on residential roads around South Lodge Avenue. Our work is backed by a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
In the London Borough of Merton, we often encounter mixed ground conditions and gardens with subtle level changes that benefit from well-drained retaining walls. Access can be tight around maisonette blocks and 1930s semis, so we plan deliveries and cutting areas to keep paths usable. We also factor in on-street parking and considerate working hours near schools and parks. The result is stonework that fits the property style and stands up to year-round weather.

Costs vary by height, length, stone type and whether the wall is retaining. As a guide, simple mortared garden walls often start around £250–£450 per linear metre, while premium stonework (flint/ragstone) or detailed copings can be £450–£800+ per metre. Retaining walls with drainage, deeper foundations and engineering considerations may range from £600–£1,200+ per metre. We’ll survey and itemise everything before you commit.
Most small garden walls take 2–5 working days once materials are on site. Larger boundary runs or retaining walls typically take 1–3 weeks, depending on excavation, foundations, curing time and access for deliveries. Dry stone can be quicker to finish but still needs careful selection and hand fitting. Timescales also change with weather, site levels, and whether we’re integrating steps, piers, lighting or planting beds.
Many garden walls are permitted development, but rules can change depending on wall height, proximity to a highway, and whether your property is listed or in a conservation area. Retaining walls may also need extra consideration if they affect drainage or neighbouring land. We’ll flag likely constraints during the survey and can help you check requirements with the London Borough of Merton before work starts, so there are no surprises.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our stone walling workmanship. This covers issues such as structural movement caused by poor construction, failures in mortar joints (where applicable), and problems linked to incorrect foundations or drainage details we’ve installed. It doesn’t cover accidental impact damage, alterations by others, or extreme events outside normal conditions. We also give care guidance so your wall stays looking sharp for years.
We build dry stone and mortared stone walls, plus feature and retaining walls to suit your garden layout. Popular choices include flint for a classic South London look, ragstone for texture and strength, and sandstone or limestone for a cleaner, lighter finish. We can add copings, piers, curves, recessed planting pockets and matching steps. We’ll bring samples, discuss colour and joint style, and recommend the best option for durability and budget.
