Our bricklaying services in Kent
Garden walls
We build, rebuild and repair brick garden walls, including retaining walls and driveway pillars. Weather, ground movement and age can leave walls with loose bricks, failed mortar or even partial collapse. We fix the cause, then rebuild or repoint to match. For older walls, see our lime mortar pointing.
Chimneys
Chimneys take a battering from the weather, and crumbling mortar can quickly become a structural problem. Our bricklayers repoint, reflaunch and fully rebuild chimneys on all property types. Read more on our chimney repointing and rebuilds page.
Fireplaces
We repair and rebuild brick fireplaces and chimney breasts, modern and period, using cement or traditional lime mortar. We fix cracked brickwork and crumbling mortar and choose materials that blend with the existing structure. See our fireplace restoration page.
Brickwork repairs
We replace broken and spalled bricks with carefully matched ones, and we can deal with cracks too. See brick and stone replacement and structural crack repairs.
New brickwork and custom builds
From a simple new wall to a one-off design, we build to suit your property, matching the existing brick, bond and mortar wherever we can.

Recent bricklaying projects
Garden walls




Chimney rebuild


This chimney stack had weathered badly, with darkened, sooty brickwork and worn mortar joints. We repointed it with lime, added new pots and cowls, then finished the top with fresh flaunching, so it’s sound and weatherproof again and still looks right on the roof.
Fireplace restoration


This brick fireplace had tired, sooty brickwork and worn pointing. We repointed it in traditional lime mortar and carefully acid-cleaned the bricks, which brought back the original colour and left the joints crisp and even. It now sets off the oak beam and stone hearth, and it’s ready for a log burner or an open fire.
