Bricklayers in Bushey

Across Bushey (WD23) it is mostly single and double storey extensions, matched facing brickwork and garden walls, along with the blockwork, lintels and openings that go with all of it. Bushey is mostly interwar and postwar semis and terraces on tight plots, which means side returns and rear extensions built with limited access, brickwork matched into a weathered seventy year old elevation, and scaffold and material deliveries planned around a shared drive. Every job starts with a look at the wall and the drawings rather than a price guessed over the phone.

No. Bushey is on the doorstep of the Watford base, so there is no travel charge and a first look at the job can usually be arranged within a day or two.

Yes. Bushey is five minutes across town and a steady source of extension work on larger family houses. Give us a ring and we will tell you what we normally find in brickwork around Bushey High Street and what your job is likely to need before anyone orders a brick.

It does, and mostly through access rather than the brickwork itself. Bushey is largely interwar and postwar semis and terraces on narrow plots, so the questions are where the scaffold goes, whether a mixer and a stack of bricks can get to the back, and whether the neighbour's drive is involved. The brickwork question is matching: a seventy year old elevation has weathered, so the closest new brick still reads slightly fresh for a season or two. We show you the match laid up rather than as a single brick.

Usually. Matching means three things: the brick, the bond and the mortar, and the mortar is the one most people forget. We judge the mortar dry rather than wet, because it changes colour as it cures, and we lay the closest brick options up on site so you can see them in Bushey daylight against your own wall rather than choosing from a sample in a merchant's yard.

Bushey is around 2 miles from the Watford base, so getting out to look and price is quick. Actually starting depends on what is already in the diary, and we would rather give you a real date than a hopeful one. Ring and we will tell you where the next honest slot is.
