Brickwork in Croxley Green

Croxley Green is a village core with a conservation area around it and newer housing beyond, so facing brick, bond and joint finish are frequently conditioned rather than chosen, and the work is judged on how little the new brickwork announces itself. In practice most of what we are asked for in Croxley Green is extensions, with everything else on the list available alongside it.

Questions

Working in Croxley Green

What brickwork do you do in Croxley Green?

Across Croxley Green (WD3) it is mostly extensions, garage conversions in brick and block, boundary walls and repointing, along with the blockwork, lintels and openings that go with all of it. Croxley Green is a village core with a conservation area around it and newer housing beyond, so facing brick, bond and joint finish are frequently conditioned rather than chosen, and the work is judged on how little the new brickwork announces itself. Every job starts with a look at the wall and the drawings rather than a price guessed over the phone.

Do you charge extra to come out to Croxley Green?

No. Croxley Green 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.

Have you worked in Croxley Green before?

Yes. Croxley Green is a short run out of Watford and the work there is mostly extensions to established family housing. Give us a ring and we will tell you what we normally find in brickwork around The Green and what your job is likely to need before anyone orders a brick.

Does the type of property in Croxley Green change the job?

It does, and often formally. Parts of Croxley Green sit inside a conservation area, which means the facing brick, the bond and sometimes the joint finish can be conditioned on the approval rather than left to preference. That is not a problem, but it does mean the specification is worth reading before anyone orders bricks. Outside the conservation boundary the newer housing is straightforward extension and garden wall work with no such constraint.

Can you match the existing brickwork on a Croxley Green property?

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 Croxley Green daylight against your own wall rather than choosing from a sample in a merchant's yard.

How soon could you start a job in Croxley Green?

Croxley Green 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.
