Brickwork right here in Maresfield
Bradford Brickwork is based in Maresfield, so this is where we started out and where our brickwork jobs often begin. We take on work of every size nearby, from a new front wall or a pair of brick piers to the brickwork for a full extension or porch. We also repair and rebuild chimney stacks and repoint tired brickwork.
The centre of the village is built around St Bartholomew's Church, a Grade I listed building with a core dating from the 13th century. Many older houses nearby are timber-framed, refaced in brick or tile-hung above a brick ground floor, while later houses are mostly brick with clay tile roofs. We match the brick, the mortar colour and the bond on every local job.

Local building character
Maresfield's timber-framed and brick houses
The conservation area around the church has 15 listed buildings or structures. St Bartholomew's Church is Grade I listed, and the old coaching inn at the crossroads, the Chequers, is Grade II*. Twelve more buildings nearby are valued for their local character, and most of the listed buildings are still homes.
Older buildings in the heart of the village are timber-framed. Many have since been refaced in brick, sometimes painted or rendered, or have a brick ground floor with tile-hung walls above. Later houses are usually two storeys of brick, often painted or rendered, under hipped or gabled clay tile roofs.
Boundaries are mostly hedges, but some plots still have proper brick garden walls, along with a few picket fences and old metal estate railings. Matching brick walls and piers like these is one of the jobs we get asked about most, since the new brick has to match what is already there.

Repointing to gable and chimney.
A great job repointing the gable and chimney. Some of the bricks to the chimney needed replacing too. This was the second time of using Bradford Brickwork and as before we were very impressed. All work was completed on time despite a sudden downpour and the result looks great. Thanks very much!
Re-pointing front of Victorian house
Exceptionally high quality re-pointing work on front of Victorian house with lime mortar. The tradesmen were highly skilled and experienced and friendly and communicative. Highly recommended.
Repointing
Work was completed in a timely manner. I was happy with the quality of work and the fact that the site was kept tidy. If I have any more suitable work I will use them again.
Repointing
This was our first experience of having a wall repointed, but we needn't have worried. The team were friendly, polite and professional. Communication was good and they arrived and completed on time.
They did a great job and the wall looks great. I would certainly use Bradford Brickwork again.
Construction of retaining wall
Bradford Brickwork built a retaining wall in our garden, installing footings and a reinforced block wall to our engineer’s drawings. The team were very professional, extremely polite and they did an excellent job, completing the work on time and leaving the site in good order and I would recommend them to anyone with confidence.
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.
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.
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.
