Wimbledon Village gardens often need walls that look refined yet perform year-round. We build dry stone and mortared stone walls that complement properties near Wimbledon Village High Street and the edges of Wimbledon Common. Whether you’re defining a front boundary or creating a raised terrace, we match stone colour, coursing and proportions to the setting. Every build is finished with crisp lines, stable foundations and clean detailing.
Local homes range from large detached houses to Georgian properties and luxury apartments, each with different levels, access and design expectations. We regularly design stonework that sits comfortably alongside traditional brickwork, rendered façades and contemporary glazing. In the stone walling Wimbledon Village area, we’re often asked for retaining walls to manage sloping plots and feature walls to frame patios. We can also integrate steps, copings and discreet lighting channels where required.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels check and a clear specification of stone type, finish and drainage. We prepare a stable sub-base, set out accurately, and build for strength using proven bonding and weep details where needed. Work is kept tidy and neighbour-considerate, with deliveries planned to minimise disruption. Homeowners choose Fine Landscaping for consistent workmanship, transparent scheduling and a 10-year warranty on our wall builds.
In the London Borough of Merton, many gardens around SW19 sit on varied ground with changes in level, so we prioritise footing depth and drainage behind retaining walls. Access near King’s College School and Cannizaro Park can be busy at peak times, so we schedule deliveries and waste collection accordingly. We also account for mature trees and roots common near Wimbledon Common, adjusting excavation and foundation design to protect them. The result is stonework that suits local architecture and performs reliably.

Costs vary with stone choice, wall height, foundations and whether it’s dry stone or mortared. As a guide, mortared stone walling often starts around £250–£450 per m², while premium finishes and complex detailing can reach £500–£800+ per m². Retaining walls typically cost more due to excavation, drainage and engineering. We provide a detailed, itemised quotation after a site survey in SW19.
Most small feature or boundary walls take 2–5 days, while larger retaining walls can take 1–3 weeks depending on length, height and access. Timescales also depend on ground conditions, demolition of existing structures, drainage requirements and curing time for mortared work. We confirm a programme after measuring and setting out, and we plan deliveries to keep the site running smoothly throughout the build.
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. In parts of Wimbledon Village, extra restrictions may apply. We’ll flag likely planning considerations during the survey and can help you check Merton Council guidance before work begins, so you avoid delays or compliance issues.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our stone walling workmanship, covering structural integrity issues arising from installation, such as movement caused by incorrect foundations or poor bonding. It also includes faults linked to our drainage detailing on retaining walls. Natural stone is a living material and can weather over time, but we build to minimise staining and instability. Warranty terms are supplied in writing with your quote.
We build in flint, ragstone, sandstone and limestone, with options for dry stone character or clean mortared joints.

We’ll advise on stone tone, coursing style and coping profiles to suit your home and garden, and we can coordinate with paving and steps for a cohesive finish.
