Richmond gardens often need strong, elegant boundaries that complement period brickwork and mature planting. We design and build stone walls for front gardens, side returns and terraces near Richmond Green and along routes towards Richmond Bridge. Whether you want a crisp feature wall or a practical retaining wall, we match materials and proportions to the setting. Expect clean lines, neat copings and a finish that looks established from day one.
Our local work regularly includes Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and riverside properties where levels, access and heritage details matter. In Kew, Ham and Petersham, we’re often asked to create retaining walls that stabilise banks while keeping a natural look. We also build boundary walls that sit comfortably beside traditional railings, paved paths and formal planting. Every wall is set out to suit your garden’s geometry, not forced into standard sizes.
We start with a site visit to confirm levels, drainage and the right foundation approach for the load. You’ll receive a clear specification covering stone type, build method (dry stone or mortared) and finishing details. Our team works tidily, protects paving and planting, and schedules deliveries to minimise disruption. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent communication and a 10-year warranty on qualifying builds.
Across the stone walling Richmond area, we plan for tight access, resident parking controls and careful material handling on narrow streets. Ground conditions vary from riverside soils to firmer subsoils nearer Richmond Park, so foundations and drainage are designed accordingly. We also consider conservation sensitivities and sightlines around period properties. If approvals or boundary constraints apply, we help you navigate them before work begins.

Costs depend on height, thickness, access and the stone you choose. As a guide, mortared stone walling often starts around £250–£450 per m², while dry stone can be £300–£550 per m² due to the extra hand selection and shaping. Retaining walls with reinforced footings and drainage commonly range from £450–£900 per m². We’ll confirm a tailored range after a site survey in TW9 or TW10.
Most small garden walls take 2–5 days, while longer boundary runs or taller retaining walls typically take 1–3 weeks. Timescales depend on excavation, foundation curing, stone availability, and whether we’re building around steps, gates or existing planting. Restricted access near Richmond Green or riverside roads can affect delivery and waste removal. We provide a realistic programme and keep you updated as work progresses.
Many garden walls are permitted development, but rules can change with height, proximity to a highway, listed buildings and conservation areas. Front boundary walls and anything affecting visibility near a road may have stricter limits. In the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, we’ll flag potential constraints early and can work from approved drawings if required. We always recommend checking deeds and boundary responsibilities too.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying stone walling installations, covering structural integrity and workmanship when built to our specification. This includes issues such as movement caused by incorrect footing design or poor bonding. It doesn’t cover accidental impact damage, third-party alterations, or extreme events beyond reasonable control. We also advise on maintenance, drainage checks and repointing intervals to protect the wall long-term.
We build dry stone and mortared walls using flint, ragstone, sandstone or limestone, depending on the look you want and the site conditions. Popular options include retaining walls with integrated drainage, feature walls with recessed lighting, and traditional copings to suit period properties. We’ll help you choose stone colour, joint style and wall thickness to match your home and garden layout. Samples and visual references are provided before ordering.
