In preparation for building a mostly timber frame extension to our house I engaged Des and Steve of D&A to do the groundworks and construct the footings and a tall brick and block chimney structure. As an experienced carpenter and house builder myself I am well able to judge good workmanship when I see it.
I have no hesitation in highly recommending this excellent company to undertake any brickwork and full extension job you may be considering. They are highly skilled and well organised, efficient in materials supply and handling, work very hard on time and on budget, maintain a very clean and tidy job site, and are a pleasure to have on site. Their organisation of excavating the foundation trenches and subsequent concrete pour was efficient and timely. Their subsequent brick and block work carried out to a very high standard and millimetre perfect. These are experienced bricklayers any client would be delighted to employ.

I highly recommend this company. They completed Groundworks up to DPC and built a large brick and block chimney for me as part of a timber frame extension.
Highly organised, reliable, good at sourcing and materials handling, very skilful brick workers. Kept a clean and tidy site throughout and delivered on budget and on time.
A pleasure to have working on my site. Nothing negative to say.
Des has done a great job for us, creating an opening in a load-bearing wall and bricking up a doorway. He was transparent with costs, kept communication clear and consistent throughout, and completed the job on time as promised. I highly recommend Des and will happily use his services again in the future.

They were very professional and polite did an amazing job and very happy with the work they did
Fortunately for me, D&A builders were recommended to help with a small house Renovation. From start to finish, Des and his team of excellent colleagues were superb. Personable, professional, great time keeping, knowledgeable, excellent standard of work, tidy and liased well with other tradesmen needed on the project. Would certainly recommend.
D&A were recommended to me. Doing a small house renovation was very daunting. Des was punctual and personable. Very knowledgable and made me instantly feel at ease and I knew I was in safe hands. All work was carried out to the highest of standards. Great communication and no delays. Des and his team went the extra mile and nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Des.

D&A Brickwork & Building did a fantastic job of our ground floor extension. Des and his team were professional, organised and kept everything on schedule while making the whole process stress-free. The quality of work is outstanding and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough!
