Response within 24 hours
Battersea's housing stock ranges from converted mansion blocks to brand-new riverside apartments, each demanding different approaches to brickwork. Victorian terraces often need sympathetic restoration of crumbling party walls, whilst newer builds near Nine Elms require contemporary designs complementing glass and steel. Local knowledge matters – understanding which bricks match existing structures saves weeks of sourcing delays.
Quality brickwork starts below ground level. Proper foundations prevent future movement, especially crucial given clay soil variations between riverside plots and higher ground towards Clapham Junction. Weather-resistant mortars handle London's freeze-thaw cycles. Expansion joints accommodate seasonal movement. These technical details determine whether walls stand strong for decades or crack within years.
Twenty years building throughout SW11 means knowing every supplier, understanding planning requirements for conservation areas, and maintaining relationships with neighbouring property owners during construction. Projects run smoother when contractors understand Battersea's unique challenges.
