Extensions & Alterations

Adding space to an existing home or altering its structure requires brickwork that matches — in brick type, bond, mortar colour and joint profile — what is already there. Doughty Construction Ltd specialises in extensions and structural alterations across Suffolk and Norfolk, working carefully around occupied homes.

Refurbishments

Older properties across Suffolk and Norfolk often need skilled brickwork refurbishment — replacing damaged or spalled brick, repointing deteriorated joints, or rebuilding sections where the masonry has failed. Doughty Construction Ltd handles brick and masonry refurbishments on everything from Victorian terraces to post-war housing stock.

Decorative Brickwork

Decorative brickwork is one of the most visible signs of a skilled bricklayer — soldier courses, feature arches, projecting headers, corbelling and intricate bonding patterns that elevate a build above the ordinary.
