Structural & Garden Walls

Brickwork and retaining wall experts for lasting structures.

About Our Structural & Garden Walls Service

Our skilled bricklayers construct a wide range of walls including garden boundary walls, retaining walls, decorative feature walls, and structural foundations. We work with traditional brick, natural stone, reconstituted stone, and rendered blockwork to match existing property styles or create striking new features. Every wall is built to last by time-served craftsmen, engineered properly for its purpose and finished to the high standard our name has stood for since 1935.

In Detail

Wall construction requires specialist skills that many general landscapers do not possess. White & Sons employs time-served bricklayers and stonemasons who understand the engineering behind every wall they build. Our retaining walls are properly designed to hold back the ground behind them safely and reliably for the long term. For boundary walls, we match existing property styles using reclaimed brick, new facing brick, natural stone, or rendered blockwork. We also build decorative feature walls including raised planters, barbecue surrounds, and pillar-mounted lighting — each one built to last and finished beautifully.

Structural & Garden Walls FAQ

Walls under 1 metre height adjacent to a highway, or under 2 metres elsewhere, generally do not require building regulations approval. However, retaining walls holding back significant earth, and any wall that could affect structural stability, should be designed to current standards. We advise on requirements for every project.

A well-built brick wall on proper foundations will last for generations. We build every wall to stand the test of time.

Yes. We source matching bricks from specialist suppliers and, where necessary, use reclaimed bricks from salvage yards to achieve a perfect blend with existing walls. Our bricklayers are skilled at matching bond patterns and mortar colours.

A garden wall is freestanding and supports only its own weight. A retaining wall holds back earth and has to resist the pressure of the soil behind it, so it needs to be properly engineered for the job — which is exactly what our experienced team provides.
