HOW LONG DOES BRICKWORK TAKE TO COMPLETE?

CAN YOU MATCH EXISTING BRICKWORK?
Yes — brick matching is something we take seriously. We have access to a wide range of brick types and can usually find a very close or exact match to your existing brickwork, ensuring a seamless, professional finish.
DO I NEED PLANNING PERMISSION FOR BRICKWORK?
It depends on the scope of the project. Most repairs and repointing work don’t require planning permission, but some extensions and new walls may. We recommend checking with your local council if you’re unsure. We can advise based on our experience, but the responsibility for planning permission rests with the homeowner.
HOW DO I KNOW IF MY BRICKWORK NEEDS REPOINTING?
Signs that your brickwork may need repointing include crumbling or missing mortar, damp patches on interior walls, frost damage to mortar joints, or visible gaps between bricks. If in doubt, we can assess the brickwork and advise on the best course of action.
WHAT PAYMENT METHODS DO YOU ACCEPT?
We accept bank transfer and cash. Full payment details will be agreed before work begins, and a clear payment schedule is included in our quote for larger projects.
