We study the effect of a nearby planar wall on the propulsion of a phoreticJanus micro-swimmer driven by asymmetric reactions on its surface which absorbreactants and generate products. We show that the behaviour of these swimmersnear a wall can be classified ${\bf based \ on \ whether}$ the swimmers are${\bf mainly}$ absorbing or producing reaction solutes ${\bf and \ whether}$their swimming directions are such that the inert or active face is at thefront. We find that the wall-induced solute gradients always promote swimmerpropulsion along the wall while the effect of hydrodynamics leads tore-orientation of the swimming direction away from the wall.
