Wall Ideas for your Garden

Walls can be installed in your garden for many different reasons – they can provide you with additional privacy, act as a retaining wall, or can be installed to create additional interest and structure. At Blue Iris Landscapes, we can construct walls out of a variety of materials, with each one having its own advantages.

Sleeper Walls

Sleeper WallMade of natural timber, sleeper walls add a natural looking aesthetic to your garden. These beds blend in perfectly with large areas of planting. The wood is treated to ensure longevity, well-maintained sleeper beds can last for 10-15 years before the timber starts to rot away.

Red Brick Walls


A traditional red brick wall adds a timeless, classic feel to your garden. The red bricks will be pointed up to ensure a superb finish and we use a blue brick as a soldier course to complete the look. Brick walls are surprisingly versatile – brick pillars can be included to add additional interest, and railings can be installed on top of a wall to ensure additional privacy and security. Our quoting and design team are also happy to research different types of brick – so if your property already has a specific type of brick that is used throughout, provide us with the details and we can ensure your wall is built to match.

Fairstone Walling


Fairstone walling is most commonly constructed from sandstone, or other similar materials that can bring a traditional, rustic look to your property. This option comes in many different shades and hues (often with very subtle differences) which can help ensure a match, or a contrast, with other features in your garden.
