Our brickworks service
Garden walls carry more than people think, particularly retaining walls, which hold back the weight of saturated ground behind them. Every wall we build goes off a concrete foundation dug below the topsoil to firm ground. Retaining walls get weep holes and drainage behind them so water can escape rather than pushing at the back of the wall, which is the single most common reason garden retaining walls lean. Coursing is set out against the existing brickwork where there is any, and the pointing is finished to match rather than left flush by default.
What is included

Everything below is part of the quoted price rather than an extra added on afterwards.
- Concrete foundation dug down to firm ground
- Brick or block walls built to line and level
- Weep holes and drainage behind retaining walls
- Piers and gate pillars where the wall needs them
- Coping or brick-on-edge to the top of the wall

Our process
How it works
- 01
Tell us what you want to change
Call, message or send the form. Photos of the garden as it stands now are the fastest way for us to understand the job.
- 02
We visit and take levels
We look at levels, drainage, access and what is already there, then talk through what is realistic in the space and the budget.
- 03
You get a written quote
Each part of the work is priced separately, so you can see what the paving costs against the turf, the fencing or the walls.
- 04
We book a start date
We agree a date, confirm access for machinery and skips, and let you know how long the garden will be out of use.
- 05
We finish and clear up
Waste goes, the site is swept, and we hand over anything you need to know about looking after new turf or planting.
Why choose us
Why choose us for brickworks
- A family-run team, so you deal with the people doing the work rather than a call centre.
- The groundwork goes in before the surface, which is what decides how long the job lasts.
- Driveways, paving, walls, fencing and turf are all in-house, so the levels and finishes line up.
- A written price with the materials named, so you can compare it properly.
What affects the price
No two jobs price the same. These are the things that move it most:
- The length and height of the wall
- Whether it is a free-standing wall or a retaining wall, which is a heavier build
- Brick choice, and whether an existing brick has to be matched
- Foundation depth once the ground is opened up
- Piers, pillars, copings and any ironwork built in
- Access for materials and for removing spoil
