Plumpton Green is a village rooted in history, first appearing in the Domesday Book. Most of the properties here are 18th and 19th-century cottages and houses built of local red brick or tile. When we work on these period homes, we match materials carefully so repairs blend in with the original architecture.

Local building character
A historic village on the Downs edge
Plumpton Green is the more densely built part of the parish, with most dwellings arranged around the railway station and Station Road. The railway arrived in 1863, transforming Plumpton from a small rural settlement into a growing village. Most of the cottages and terraces date from the Victorian period and are built of local red brick with clay tile roofs and traditional brick chimneys.
The village has kept much of its character as a place at the edge of the South Downs. To the south, Plumpton Plain rises steeply, and the South Downs Way passes across it. Field names and place names like 'Riddens' Farm and 'Lentridge' Farm recall ancient enclosures and the former landscape. Older boundary walls throughout the village are built of brick or brick and flint, and many need careful repointing.
The history of Plumpton is rooted in medieval times. Simon de Montfort is said to have rallied his forces on Plumpton Plain before the Battle of Lewes in 1264. The village was small and scattered until the railway arrived, after which development accelerated and shops, services and a school were established.

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.
