Bricklayers in Framfield
Brickwork for Framfield's old village centre
Bradford Brickwork works throughout Framfield and the nearby hamlet of Blackboys. We take on brickwork jobs of every size, from a new front wall or brick piers to the brickwork for an extension or porch, plus chimney repairs and repointing.
Framfield's church has survived a fire and a collapsed tower over the centuries, and much of the village centre around it is now a conservation area. When we work on a house here, we match the brick, mortar colour and bond so any repair blends in with the rest of the building.

Local building character
Framfield's church, manor and Blackboys
St Thomas a Becket church is Grade II listed, dating mainly from the 13th century with some Norman stonework. A fire in 1509 damaged the wooden parts of the church, and its tower later collapsed in the 17th century before the whole building was restored in 1891.
Wealden District Council designated a conservation area covering the historic centre of Framfield in March 2017, protecting the setting around the church and the older buildings nearby.
The manor of Framfield was once held by the Levett family, who were important figures in the early Wealden iron industry. Blackboys, within the same parish, has a 14th-century coaching inn that may once have served charcoal carters on their way to Lewes. Charcoal burning stayed a local trade here long after the iron furnaces themselves closed, and it shaped the mix of old cottages and farm buildings still standing around the parish today.

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.
