Garden and boundary walls, built on proper footings
A garden wall is only as good as what is under it. We dig and pour a concrete footing, build in the brick you choose and finish with a coping that keeps the rain out of the joints.

Raj visits, measures the run and checks the ground, the drains and any trees nearby. Most garden walls are double-skin brick with a damp-proof course and a brick-on-edge or stone coping. Long runs get movement joints so they do not crack as the ground moves through the seasons.
If the wall sits on the line between you and a neighbour, the Party Wall Act may apply. We explain what notice is needed and can prepare the drawings for it. Retaining walls over about a metre high are designed with an engineer before we build.

Straight answers on price, timing and guarantees. If your question is not here, call the office.
Do I need planning permission for a garden wall?
Usually not, if the wall is under one metre high next to a road or under two metres elsewhere. Listed buildings and conservation areas have stricter rules, and we will check before we quote.
Can you match my old bricks?
Yes. We take a sample to the merchant or source reclaimed bricks, and we show you a test panel before building the full wall.
