Bricklayers in Glynde
Brickwork below Mount Caburn
Bradford Brickwork carries out brickwork for homeowners in and around Glynde. That covers the brickwork for an extension or porch, a new front wall or brick piers, and chimney stack repairs or rebuilds.
Many Glynde houses are estate cottages of flint and red brick built after the railway arrived in 1846, so a repair often means matching both materials, not just one. We look at the wall before pricing any job.

Local building character
Flint estate village under Mount Caburn
Glynde sits two miles east of Lewes, under Mount Caburn, a chalk hill topped by the remains of an Iron Age hillfort. Glynde Place, the manor house at the top of the village, was built in 1568-69 for William and Anne Morley using local flint and stone shipped from Caen in France.
Further down the street, the estate cottages are a different story. They were built of flint and red brick by the Weller family building firm, after Glynde railway station opened in 1846. This gives the village its mix: grand flint and stone at one end, and plainer flint and brick at the other.
At the northern edge of the parish is Glyndebourne, home to the Glyndebourne Festival Opera from 1934 onward. The southern part of Glynde village, around the Trevor Arms and the station, actually lies in the neighbouring parish of Beddingham.

Patio extension
Matt and his fab team recently extended my patio. It was just what I had in mind - the slabs matched perfectly and shingle was added by the fence so it matched existing work. They also tidied up like nothing ever happened. Amazing. Would highly recommend. Thank you!
Reliable and great work
Great work, great communication, sorted out the problem quickly and no fuss, even when the job expanded beyond what we agreed. Result is better than we had originally. Very pleased.
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.
