What we do here

Brickwork in Uxbridge

Uxbridge 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. In practice most of what we are asked for in Uxbridge is extensions, with everything else on the list available alongside it.

Questions

Working in Uxbridge

What brickwork do you do in Uxbridge?

Across Uxbridge (UB8) it is mostly extensions, blockwork on commercial and estate sites, garden and retaining walls, along with the blockwork, lintels and openings that go with all of it. Uxbridge 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.

Do you charge extra to come out to Uxbridge?

No. Uxbridge is about 9 miles from the Watford base, well inside the daily patch, so travel is in the price and a look at the job is normally a couple of days away.

Have you worked in Uxbridge before?

Yes. Uxbridge sits at the southern end of the regular patch and mixes housing work with commercial blockwork. Give us a ring and we will tell you what we normally find in brickwork around High Street and what your job is likely to need before anyone orders a brick.

Does the type of property in Uxbridge change the job?

It does, and mostly through access rather than the brickwork itself. Uxbridge 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.

Can you match the existing brickwork on a Uxbridge 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 Uxbridge daylight against your own wall rather than choosing from a sample in a merchant's yard.

How soon could you start a job in Uxbridge?

Uxbridge is around 9 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.
