ConstructionBrickwork & blockwork
New walls, repairs, repointing and garden walls.
Brick and block is the backbone of British building. We lay new work, repair damaged walls and repoint old brickwork so it lasts.
Good brickwork is matched to what is already there — bricks, bond and mortar colour — so repairs do not stand out.
What's included
- New brick and block walls
- Garden and retaining walls
- Repointing and brick repairs
- Chimney repairs and rebuilds
- Matching existing brick and mortar
Good to know
- Garden walls up to 2 m high (1 m next to a road) normally do not need planning permission, unless the property is listed or there are local restrictions.
- Retaining walls hold back soil and must be designed for the load; tall ones need an engineer.

Questions people ask
Do I need planning permission?
It depends on the project. Many single-storey extensions, garden walls and fences are permitted development and need no application, but limits apply and some areas are excluded. Use our free planning checker for a first answer — we confirm it before work starts.
Do I need Building Regulations approval?
Yes for extensions, structural alterations, new homes and conversions — even when planning permission is not needed. Building Control inspects the work and signs it off at the end.
Who sorts out the permissions and paperwork?
We tell you exactly what your job needs — planning, Building Regulations, party wall notices, surveys — and handle it before work starts, so nothing is left to chance.
How do you price a job?
We start with a free site visit, or from your photos and videos, then give you a written, itemised quote showing what is included and what is not.
What about my neighbours?
If work affects a shared wall or digs near a neighbour's foundations, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 requires written notice — normally two months for wall work and one month for excavation.
Who does the gas and electrical work?
Gas work is done only by Gas Safe registered engineers, and electrical work only by qualified electricians.
