Brickwork for Rusper's conservation area
Bradford Brickwork takes on brickwork jobs for homeowners across Rusper and the outlying settlements of Lambs Green and Ifield Wood. That covers the brickwork for an extension or porch, a front garden wall, a pair of brick piers, a patio or a chimney stack in need of repair.
Much of the village sits inside the Rusper Conservation Area, where cottages are a mix of half-timber, tile hanging and brickwork. We match the brick, the mortar colour and the bond on any repair or addition, and we are happy to talk through conservation rules before we start.

Local building character
Half-timbered, tile-hung and brick
Rusper is a linear village set high on a ridge close to the Surrey border. At its centre is a triangular High Street, which the council describes as an unspoilt village core of pleasant cottages, half-timbered and tile-hung.
The parish church of St Mary Magdalene, a Grade I listed building, has stood here since the parish was formed around 1287. Within 500 metres of the church there are 12 listed buildings, built in a mix of timber frame, tile hanging and brickwork.
The Rusper Conservation Area was first designated in 1976 and its boundary was reviewed and extended in 2016 to take in more of the historic core. That means extra planning controls apply to many repairs and additions here, so we always check before quoting.

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.
Stunning new garden
Amazing experience with this friendly, considerate and highly skilled team. We had a new wall, fence, patio and artificial grass laid. The results are even better than we hope. Would highly recommend Bradford Brickwork.
Shorten garden wall and make good driveway
Matt and his team did a very good job of putting right a job previously carried out by a non qualified brick layer.
The job is now completed to a very high standard and everything was left clean and tidy. The team were polite and courteous at all times. We would highly recommend .
Repointing house wall
We needed one wall of our house repointed, but we also needed the ridge tiles replaced as well as the roof verges.
Matt was very knowledgeable and the brickie he supplied was really good and very helpful. Nathan went above and beyond.
They were really easy to get on with and did a superlative job.
I would thoroughly recommend and definitely use them again, if the need arises.
Definitely 20 stars !!
Build Parapet wall using lime mortar
Quick response and competitive quote.Very neat job using lime mortar to rebuild a section of wall at the top of the house and cap with coping stones.Very friendly crew who were punctual and tidied up thoroughly at the end of the job.
Brickwork to extension.
Matt attended to quote and review on brickwork before and after completion of work. Advised on house generally. Respected garden and placed lawn boards. Particularly impressed with matching the coloured mortar, unlike previous contractor.
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.
