Job Description

The boundary of our garden runs alongside a pavement (separated by a fence). Our flowerbed is 60cm below the height of the pavement and the existing wall behind it is very uneven in depth - some bricks are missing. It is not possible to demolish the wall, so we would like to have a new wall built in front of this (as flush as possible).

There are a few concrete supports for the pavement which will interrupt the wall.

We will have this wall rendered separately (not included in this job) so the bricks will not be seen.

You can see photos of the existing wall here:
