Brick Wall Builders in Bromley
Brick Walls in Bromley — London Borough of Bromley
We build and repair garden walls, boundary walls, retaining walls and gate piers throughout the Bromley borough. Front boundary walls are the most common request here, usually alongside a new driveway.
What matters for brick walls in Bromley
Front boundary walls and driveway piers
When a driveway goes in, the front wall usually needs cutting and the piers rebuilding. Doing both together means the brick, the coping and the paving border are chosen as one scheme.
Footings on shallow frontages
A wall is only as good as what is under it. On shallow front gardens with services running through, we locate the services and design the footing around them rather than trenching blind.
Coping and DPC details
A coping that throws water clear and a DPC at the base are what keep a free-standing wall dry. They are invisible once built, and they are the two details most often skipped.
