Blockwork Contractors in Kessingland, Suffolk
Doughty Construction Ltd handles substructure and superstructure blockwork across Suffolk from our Bungay base — Approximately 13 miles south-east of Bungay, on the Suffolk coast. Kessingland is a coastal village between Lowestoft and Southwold with a high proportion of bungalows and low-rise residential properties — a housing type particularly suited to single-storey brick extensions and garden wall projects. Its exposed coastal position means brickwork here is subject to salt-laden winds, making mortar specification and pointing quality important for longevity. 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 Kessingland
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.
