Brickwork for Laughton, east of Lewes
Bradford Brickwork takes on brickwork jobs across Laughton, a short drive from Uckfield and Lewes. That includes the brickwork for an extension or porch, a new front wall, brick piers, a patio or chimney repairs.
Laughton's most striking building is All Saints Church, with its battlemented Pelham Tower. Houses in the village are mostly simpler brick and flint farmhouses and cottages, and we match the brick, mortar colour and bond so any new work fits in with what is already there.

Local building character
Laughton's Pelham Tower and manor house
All Saints Church is Grade I listed, built from a mix of cemented nave, knapped flint chancel and a stone rubble tower, with 13th-century origins and later Perpendicular windows. Its tower, known as the Pelham Tower, carries the Pelham family's buckler badge among its battlements.
Laughton Manor, a Grade II listed manor house built between 1760 and 1780, is the other key listed building in the village. Beyond these, Laughton has no conservation area of its own, so planning controls mainly apply to the listed buildings themselves rather than the wider village.
The Pelham family, who gave the village its Village of the Buckle nickname, are buried in vaults under the church, including the Duke of Newcastle, a former Prime Minister. The village also appears in the Domesday Book, and there are Roman remains in the area.

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!
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.
