We understand that hiring a bricklaying, masonry, or hard landscaping specialist comes with many questions. Below, we’ve answered some of the most common concerns from customers in Scotland.
In many cases, small landscaping, patios, garden walls, and repointing do not require planning permission.
However, if you’re building a new structure, boundary wall over 1 metre (near a road) or 2 metres (elsewhere), or making significant alterations to your property, you may need approval.
If you’re unsure, we’ll help guide you on whether planning permission is required or if permitted development rights apply.
đź’ˇ Check with your local Scottish council or use the Planning Portal: https://www.eplanning.scot/
Small jobs (e.g., repointing, garden walls, small patios): 1-3 days
Medium-sized projects (e.g., paving a driveway, garden overhauls, stone cladding): 1-2 weeks
Larger projects (e.g., full structural work, extensions, major landscaping): 3+ weeks
âś… We provide an estimated timeline during the consultation and always aim to complete work on schedule, weather permitting.
We work year-round, but extreme heavy rain, snow, or freezing temperatures can delay certain work (especially mortar-dependent projects).
We monitor Scottish weather closely and schedule projects to minimise disruption.
Winter months (November-February) can be slower for mortar-setting and paving, but other work can proceed as normal.
If we discover hidden issues (e.g., soft ground, drainage problems, structural weaknesses), we’ll immediately inform you, explain the options, and agree on the best way forward.
We always aim to resolve issues efficiently while keeping costs fair and transparent.
