Extension Builders in Long Stratton, Norfolk
Adding a brick extension to a property in Long Stratton means matching the existing masonry — brick type, mortar colour and joint profile — to what is already there. Long Stratton is a large village on the A140 south of Norwich that has seen significant residential expansion in recent years, including several large brick-and-block housing developments. The village combines older Norfolk brick buildings along its historic core with newer estates, making it representative of the mix of new-build and period extension work we carry out across South Norfolk. 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.
Extensions & Alterations in Long Stratton
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.
