Blockwork Contractors in Dereham, Norfolk
Doughty Construction Ltd handles substructure and superstructure blockwork across Norfolk from our Bungay base — Approximately 32 miles north-west of Bungay, via the A140 and A47. Dereham — properly East Dereham — is one of mid-Norfolk's principal market towns, with a long commercial history and a substantial stock of Victorian and Edwardian red-brick buildings alongside modern retail development. The town's size and central location within Norfolk make it a natural base for larger residential and commercial projects in the county's interior. Our blockwork teams work to tight tolerances from foundation level upward, ensuring every course is plumb, level and correctly bedded before the brickwork above is started.
Blockwork in Dereham
Blockwork requires consistent bed-joint thickness and accurate plumbing from the outset — errors in the lower courses compound upward. We set out carefully from datum points, maintain level courses across the full wall length, and ensure cavity widths stay within specification throughout. On larger projects we coordinate with the groundwork and frame teams to keep the shell programme on track.
