Extension Builders in Fakenham, Norfolk

Adding a brick extension to a property in Fakenham means matching the existing masonry — brick type, mortar colour and joint profile — to what is already there. Fakenham is a market town in North Norfolk, known for its racecourse and its weekly market. The town centre has a concentration of Victorian and Edwardian red-brick buildings, and as a service town for the north-west Norfolk countryside, Fakenham attracts demand for extensions and new-build brickwork from the wide agricultural hinterland it serves. Doughty Construction Ltd specialises in this careful matching work across Norfolk, approaching every extension as a bespoke exercise in sourcing the right materials and building to a standard that will stand for decades.

What's involved

Extensions & Alterations in Fakenham

Extensions begin with careful brick and mortar matching — sourcing a facing brick that pairs with the existing stock is often the hardest part of the job. We assess the existing bond pattern and joint profile before specifying the new material, and we take the time to blend the junction so the extension reads as part of the original building. All work is coordinated with your architect or structural engineer.
