Specialist Brick Laying in ST Giles
Founder-led brick laying in ST Giles, from Crest Building Services in Bexleyheath.
Crest Building Services provides brick laying across ST Giles and the neighbouring Greater London towns from our base in Bexleyheath. Being local means a deep familiarity with the brick types and building styles common in the area, so new work, repairs and repointing are matched sympathetically to the properties around them.
ST Giles is one of the many Greater London areas we serve, together with neighbouring ST Helier and ST James, all within comfortable reach of our Bexleyheath base.
Why Consider Brick Laying in ST Giles?
A previous repair or extension used the wrong brick, bond or mortar and now looks visibly out of place against the original wall.
New work on your property stands out as an obvious mismatch and needs brick matching to blend with the existing house.
The pointing on an older wall has crumbled or washed out, leaving open mortar joints that let water into the brickwork.
Damp or weather ingress has been traced back to failing brickwork or pointing that is no longer keeping water out.
Bricks are cracked, spalling or showing signs of movement, and the damage looks like it is spreading rather than settling.
What Brick Laying in ST Giles Involves
Once the walls are up, the pointing is finished and the brickwork checked for line, level and weatherproofing before the job is signed off. Correct mortar mix, consistent pointing and appropriate damp proof course installation are all built into the work rather than treated as optional finishing touches.
Garden and boundary walls are built to the same structural standard as the load-bearing brickwork we use on extensions, including proper foundations suited to the wall's height and location. Where existing brickwork is damaged, we assess the cause of cracking or movement before carrying out the repair to avoid recurring issues.
Every brickwork job is carried out personally by Wayne, not delegated to a rotating subcontractor, so the trade a building most depends on stays in expert hands. To start your project in ST Giles, call 07495 434230 or send your details through the quote form and we will assess the work.
