Bricklayers in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk
Doughty Construction Ltd provides specialist brickwork across Suffolk, operating from our base in Bungay — Approximately 29 miles south-west of Bungay. Bury St Edmunds is one of Suffolk's finest historic towns, planned on a medieval grid around the great Abbey of St Edmund. The town centre is rich in Georgian red-brick buildings — its Abbeygate Street and The Traverse are among the best-preserved Georgian streetscapes in East Anglia. Conservation area controls here are strict, and any brickwork within the town centre must use brick and mortar specifications sympathetic to the historic fabric. Whether you are building a new extension, replacing failed masonry, or constructing a boundary wall, our team brings the same standard that earned us the 2024 Brickwork Contractor of the Year title to every job in and around Bury St Edmunds.
Brickwork in Bury St Edmunds
Quality brickwork starts with correct preparation — levelling, damp-proof course positioning, and setting out the bond before the first course is laid. Our team works to precise dimensions throughout, keeping courses level and joints consistent, and finishing with a mortar profile that suits the existing or specified style. We work across facing brick, engineering brick, and common brick depending on the requirement.
