Bricklayers in Hurstpierpoint
Brickwork for Hurstpierpoint period properties
Bradford Brickwork handles all kinds of brickwork jobs across Hurstpierpoint. We repair and repoint mortar on older buildings, rebuild chimneys and walls, and lay brickwork for extensions and garden features.
Hurstpierpoint developed historically as a linear village along an east-west ridge, with most of the older properties dating from the 18th century and later. These are built of local red brick with tile roofs. When we work on period homes, we match materials carefully so new work blends in with the existing architecture.

Local building character
Red brick on the Downs ridge
Hurstpierpoint sits on a prominent sandstone ridge that runs east and west through the parish. The historic village centre follows this natural feature, with Holy Trinity Church as its anchor. Most buildings in the old village are 18th or 19th century, built of local red brick with clay tile roofs and traditional brick chimneys.
The ridge location gives the village a distinctive character, with properties built to respect the natural slope of the land. Many older cottages and houses have been built with a mix of materials, including red brick and occasional flint dressing. Boundary walls throughout the parish are often red brick or rendered brick, and like many South Downs villages, they have been weathered by centuries of exposure.
To the south of the main village is Danny Park, a historic estate with ancient woodland and parkland that preserves a sense of historic Sussex countryside. The parish has remained largely unspoilt, with scattered farms and old buildings set back from the main road. Many of these older properties have solid brick construction and old mortar joints that need careful repointing.

Brick soldier course for lintel above window
Looked at pics and assessed the job, came to quote. Saw that it was urgent, as my replacement window couldn’t be fitted as the lintel was close to collapse. Matt booked in the job for the next day and 2 of his guys did the work. All very professional.
Repointing & bricks replacement of townhouse
Mr Bradford provided a very competitive quote for re-pointing and replacement of damaged bricks of my sea-facing townhouse. The work was completed very professionally in a timely fashion. I am happy to recommend him.
Very satisfied customer
We had some areas of brickwork that needed repointing, and also some renovation and restoration of the bricks and stone. All of the work required was done with great skill, and we were involved in the decision-making at every step of the way. The main thing is that it all looks very good now, and it was very well priced.
Re pointing brickwork
The company Matt Bradford was excellent. Arrived when he they said they would. Took care to cover the work area and left it clean and tidy after work was done. His colleague James who did the work was friendly and very capable. Thank you both.
High quality work, very happy
Work to update our front steps - rebuild of two brick walls and new sandstone slabs on the steps - was carried out to a high standard. James who carried out the work explained to us each stage of the work, arrived on time each day, and was personable and respectful. I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again.
repointing front of house
Good efficient service from start to finish. Nice neat finish too. completely satisfied. Highly recommend.
Garden and patio redesign
Matt was able to discuss our patio and garden plans with us and and put them in to reality.
The end result is everything we had hoped for, we're really pleased with the result. We now have an eye-catching low maintenance garden.
We also had the house wall repointed.
Superb Brickwork, Highly Recommended
The brickwork on our new‑build barn‑annex, including the chimney stack and a one‑metre perimeter wall, was completed to a superb standard. The team kept the site consistently tidy, worked with real pride, and showed genuine passion for the craft. Everyone was polite, respectful, and easy to deal with, making the whole process smooth from start to finish. Highly recommended for reliable, quality brickwork.
FAQs
Brickwork questions from Hurstpierpoint
My Hurstpierpoint property is on the ridge. Should I worry about subsidence?
Hurstpierpoint sits on sandstone, which is generally stable. If you have concerns about cracks in brickwork or mortar joints, we will inspect them on a free site visit and advise whether repair or specialist investigation is needed.
Can you match the red brick on my house?
Yes. We source bricks to match the local red stock and get the mortar colour right. If new bricks would stand out, we can also source reclaimed bricks to blend in more naturally.
Do I need planning permission for brickwork work?
Most repairs do not require permission. For extensions, new porches or changes to front walls, check with Mid Sussex District Council. Let us know when you book and we can advise on any planning considerations.
