Transparent Process
Five phases. Every step documented. No grey areas.
Most tradesmen hand you a number on a scrap of paper. This is what the process looks like when it is treated as a professional service.
Phase 01 — Survey
On-site assessment, no obligation
A two-hour site visit. We walk every elevation, probe existing mortar, photograph the bond pattern, and measure openings. You receive a written survey report — not a quote — within 48 hours. You own that document regardless of whether you proceed.
What is covered at this stage: your time, your access, your existing structure. Nothing is touched without written consent.
Phase 02 — Quote
Fixed price. No day-rate ambiguity.
Every quote is fixed-price per project, broken into phases with a payment schedule attached. Material costs are itemised separately. You see the margin. If the scope changes, a change-order document is signed before a single extra brick is ordered.
Legal protection: the quote document is a binding contract offer under English law. Acceptance is by email or signature — both are valid.
Phase 03 — Build
Daily progress. Weekly photos. Zero surprises.
Work begins only after a 25% deposit clears. Progress photographs are shared every Friday via a shared folder — not WhatsApp. Site is left clean at the end of each day. Materials are stored on-site in a locked cage; you hold a spare key.
Public liability cover is active from day one. The certificate is pinned inside the site cage — visible without asking.
Phase 04 — Inspect
Independent sign-off before final payment.
Before the final invoice is issued, an independent RICS-registered surveyor inspects the completed work. Their written sign-off is a condition of the contract. If they flag anything, it is remedied at our cost — not negotiated.
The inspection report becomes part of your property records, useful for mortgage valuations and planning applications.
Phase 05 — Guarantee
Ten years. In writing. Transferable.
The structural guarantee runs for ten years from the date of RICS sign-off. It is transferable to a new owner if the property is sold. It covers material failure, bond failure, and mortar degradation under normal weathering conditions. It is not a warranty card — it is a legal instrument.
Backed by a third-party insurance bond. If Mortar ceases to trade, the bond underwriter steps in. You are protected regardless.

Client Testimony
What happens when the dust settles.
“I've hired four bricklayers in twenty years of self-building. This is the first time I received a survey report before a quote, a fixed-price contract with a payment schedule, and an independent inspection before the final invoice. The wall is perfect. The paperwork is better.”

“As a general contractor I need subcontractors who won't ghost mid-job. Mortar have been on three of our sites in eighteen months. They show up, they document, they leave the site clean. The lime mortar specification on the Southwark job was flawless — the conservation officer passed it first inspection.”

“The lime mortar analysis and the bond pattern matching on the Hackney estate were exceptional. I've seen contractors try to pass off Portland cement as lime work. This was the real thing — hot-mixed, NHL 3.5, perfectly matched to the original. The RICS report confirmed it.”
