Brickwork in a city shaped by the sea
Bradford Brickwork works as builders in Brighton, bringing 15 years in the trade to house extensions, new builds, commercial projects, brick repointing and lintel work. Whether you own a Regency house close to the seafront or a 1930s semi further inland, we are happy to talk through what your property needs.
Much of Brighton and Hove was built in the Regency and Victorian eras, from the squares and crescents of Kemptown to the long terraced streets climbing away from the coast. Those walls take a battering. Salt-laden wind and rain blowing in off the Channel wear mortar joints down faster than they would further inland, so repointing is a common job on the city’s older houses.

Extra space without moving house
Plenty of Brighton households would rather build out than sell up. We build house extensions and, where the plot allows, full new builds.
Weathered pointing on a period terrace
Crumbling or recessed joints on a front elevation let water into the wall. Brick repointing replaces the tired mortar and tidies the face of the brickwork.
Cracking above a window
A diagonal crack running from a window corner, or a dropped brick arch, can be a sign that the support above the opening has failed. Our structural work covers lintels and window supports.
Pubs, shops and business premises
Commercial clients make up a good share of our work, and we have carried out projects for a national pub group.
House extensions & new builds
Extensions and new builds, from foundations to final sign-off.
Commercial building
Brickwork for Marston’s and other commercial clients.
Brick repointing
Worn mortar raked out and renewed to match the original.
Lintels & window supports
Failed lintels replaced and openings supported safely.

FAQs
Brighton building questions
How long has Bradford Brickwork been trading?
We have been trading for 15 years.
Do you take on commercial work in Brighton?
Yes. Alongside homeowners, we work for commercial clients, including a national pub group.
Which services can I book?
Residential building (extensions and new builds), commercial building, brick repointing and structural work on lintels and window supports.
Why does brickwork need repointing?
Mortar is meant to be softer than the bricks around it, so it is the part of a wall that wears away first. Once joints open up, rain can soak into the wall, and in a city as exposed to the sea as Brighton that wear tends to happen sooner.
