Bricklaying & Blockwork

Bricklayers and block layers for new builds, extensions, walls and facades — built true, level and neatly pointed. And because we're stonemasons too, we finish it to a standard a general crew can't.

Brick and block, laid the right way

Straight, level, well-bonded brick and blockwork is the backbone of every solid build. We lay the blockwork for new houses, extensions and walls, and the brickwork for facades, piers, feature walls and detailing — always true to line and neatly finished.

Here's the difference: most bricklaying crews only do brick and block. We're stonemasons first, so we bring a mason's eye and a mason's standard to every course — and we can finish the same structure in matching stone, brick or render, all with one team.

What we lay

🏗️

New-build blockwork

The block structure of new homes and buildings, from the foundations up.

🏠

Extension brick & block

Brick and block on extensions, matched to the existing house.

🧱

🧴

Repointing brickwork

One team, block to finish

Because we do the block, the brick, the stone and the pointing, you're not stitching together three different crews. We build the structure and finish it — matched brick, natural stone or render — to one consistent standard, with the same people the whole way.

It's the same craft we bring to jobs like the reclaimed-brick chimney and brick window reveals on our Swords cottage restoration and the Wonderful Barn — precision and a proper finish.

Bricklaying & blockwork — your questions answered

Do you do both bricklaying and blockwork?

Yes — both. Blockwork for the structure of new builds, extensions and walls, and brickwork for facades, feature walls, piers and detailing. As stonemasons who also lay brick and block, we bring a higher standard of finish than a general labourer would.

Can you build the structure and finish it in brick or stone?

Yes, and that's our strength. We build the blockwork structure and finish it in matching brick, natural stone or render — all with one team — so the whole build ties together properly.

Do you lay brick and block for extensions and new builds?

Yes. We handle the brick and block on new builds and extensions from the foundations up, kept true, level and neatly pointed, ready for the roof and finish.

Are you insured?

Yes — €6.5m public liability and €13m employers' liability cover on every job.

Do you give free quotes?

Yes. A free site visit and a clear, itemised quote before any work starts.
