How to find a local, skilled bricklayer
Factors to consider when hiring a bricklayer
It’s really important that you choose a reliable bricklayer company to carry out work on your home. Failing to do this can result in unnecessary stress and expensive repairs.
Before you hire, you should do your research to ensure that your bricklayers:
- Are an experienced company with a strong history of successful projects
- Have all the necessary licenses and insurance needed to protect you and their workers
- Have a good range of positive reviews from previous customers vouching for their reliability
- Are offering the services you need, and are available to carry out the work in the timeframe you need it done by
- Are quoting a price and payment option that you are happy with, having compared the quote with other local bricklayer companies
A local bricklayer is more likely to respond quickly, as they’ll be right around the corner and ready to help. To find bricklayers through Rated People, simply post a job to receive a free quote.

What can a bricklayer help you with
Bricklayers build and repair brick walls, chimney stacks, tunnel linings and decorative stonework. They’re also the tradespeople you turn to for any repointing work you need done on your home. More often than not they’re hired to build garden walls, though they can also be hired to construct brick driveway paths and other brickwork projects.
There are a few things you might need a bricklayer for, including:
- Building chimneys
- Building garden walls
- Building a pizza oven
- Repointing work
- Stonework and stone cladding work
The mortar that keeps brickwork together decays over time. Repointing is the process of filling in and repairing the old mortar between bricks on a brick wall, so that they can remain structurally sound and continue keeping water out.
Other projects, such as conservatory building, groundwork and foundations, and cavity wall insulation are usually carried out by a general builder.
How much does it cost to hire a bricklayer?
How much it will cost you to hire a bricklayer depends on a range of factors, such as the scope and complexity of the job and where you live in the UK.
The average cost to hire a bricklayer is between £120 and £250 a day. It could cost you anywhere between £600 and £1,700 to have a new garden wall built, depending on the size of the boundary. You can expect to pay anywhere between £50 and £70 per m2 to repoint a wall.

Other bricklayer FAQs
What planning permission do you need for bricklaying jobs?
Minor repairs and repointing don't require permission, but new garden walls will need it if they exceed 2 metres in height, exceed 1 metre next to a highway, or involve a listed building. For any other project sizes, you can generally build without permission, but check our planning guide or the Planning Portal for local restrictions.
What questions should I ask a bricklayer before hiring?
Before hiring, always ask if they have public liability insurance, how many years of experience they have, and if they use subcontractors. You should also request a clear timeline and a detailed price breakdown to ensure complete transparency and prevent any budgeting surprises down the line.
How long do I need to wait for new brickwork or repointing to dry?
Most mortar takes around 24 to 48 hours to dry initially and handle standard weather, though full structural curing can take up to 28 days. It is essential to avoid putting structural pressure or weight on a new brick wall during this initial 48-hour window to prevent shifting or cracks.
