Specialist Brick Laying in Merton
Founder-led brick laying in Merton, from Crest Building Services in Bexleyheath.
Because brickwork is founder Wayne's direct specialism rather than a subcontracted trade, Brick Laying in Merton is handled in-house on every extension, general building and loft conversion project where structural masonry is required. That single point of responsibility gives consistent quality control from the ground up.
We regularly work on properties in Merton and the surrounding Greater London areas such as Mitcham and Luxted, so a site visit is never a long distance exercise.
Why Consider Brick Laying in Merton?
New work on your property stands out as an obvious mismatch and needs brick matching to blend with the existing house.
A previous repair or extension used the wrong brick, bond or mortar and now looks visibly out of place against the original wall.
Bricks are cracked, spalling or showing signs of movement, and the damage looks like it is spreading rather than settling.
You want a garden or boundary wall built properly, with foundations suited to its height rather than a wall that leans over time.
The pointing on an older wall has crumbled or washed out, leaving open mortar joints that let water into the brickwork.
What Brick Laying in Merton Involves
Repointing is a common request on older properties where the original mortar has degraded over time. We match the pointing style and mortar colour to the existing wall wherever possible, so the repair stays visually consistent rather than standing out as a patch against the surrounding brickwork.
At the planning stage we confirm the brick type, the bond pattern and any matching requirements against your existing property. We work with common bonding patterns including stretcher bond, English bond and Flemish bond, selecting the one that suits a new structure or blends with the masonry already in place.
Local to Merton and the surrounding Greater London area, we can visit quickly to assess the brickwork and respond promptly if anything needs revisiting after the job is done. Send the details of your project through the contact form or call 07495 434230 to get it moving.
