Extension Builders in Sudbury, Suffolk

Adding a brick extension to a property in Sudbury means matching the existing masonry — brick type, mortar colour and joint profile — to what is already there. Sudbury is a wool-trade market town on the River Stour in south Suffolk — the birthplace of Thomas Gainsborough. The town has a varied building stock: medieval timber-frame and plaster in the centre, Victorian red-brick terraces in the residential streets, and active residential development on the town's southern and western edges. Suffolk pink render — the distinctive limewash-pigment finish seen on older cottages throughout this part of Suffolk — is a characteristic of the surrounding villages. Doughty Construction Ltd specialises in this careful matching work across Suffolk, approaching every extension as a bespoke exercise in sourcing the right materials and building to a standard that will stand for decades.
