C&J Construction & Roofing LTD carries out brickwork and stonework across West Yorkshire, on extensions and new builds and as standalone repair work. In a county built largely from Yorkshire stone, matching the existing material properly is what separates a repair that disappears from one you notice from the pavement.

Brick and stone are the most visible part of any build. A wall built in the wrong bond, pointed in the wrong mortar or built from bricks that do not match will be obvious for the next hundred years.

What we take on:

  • New brickwork and blockwork to extensions and new builds
  • Yorkshire stone walling, matched and coursed to the existing property
  • Repointing in lime or cement mortar matched to the original
  • Forming new openings, with steels and lintels installed correctly
  • Bricking up redundant openings so the repair is invisible
  • Garden walls, retaining walls, piers and gate posts
  • Cavity wall repairs and wall tie replacement
  • Structural crack repair and helical bar stitching
  • Chimney rebuilds in matching brick or stone

We source reclaimed brick and stone through West Yorkshire salvage yards where a match matters, particularly on period property and in conservation areas.

Common questions

Questions about brickwork and stonework

If your question is not answered here, call 07927 976489 and ask.

Can you match my existing brick or stone?

In most cases yes. We match on size, colour, texture and weathering, and source reclaimed material where the original is no longer made. On stone properties we also match the coursing and the pointing style, which matters as much as the stone itself.

Why is my pointing crumbling out?

Usually because a hard cement mortar was used on a building designed for soft lime mortar. The cement traps moisture in the stone, and the face of the stone then blows off in frost. We repoint in a mortar suited to the wall rather than whatever is quickest.

Do you form new openings in load bearing walls?

Yes. We install the correct steel or lintel with proper bearings, prop the structure while we work, and follow the structural engineer details. Building control are notified and inspect the work.

Customer feedback

What our customers say

5 out of 5 from 5 reviews left on Facebook by customers across West Yorkshire.

  • We recently had our roof replaced by Connor and his team, and I honestly could not recommend them highly enough. From the very beginning, Connor was friendly and professional. Communication was excellent throughout the whole job. Any questions were answered quickly, and we were always kept informed about what was happening. The work was completed much quicker than we expected without compromising on quality, and the finished roof looks fantastic. The team worked hard, were respectful of our property, and left everything clean and tidy when they finished. Thank you to Connor and everyone involved for doing such a great job.

  • The work done was excellent. Turned up on time, worked all day, left the job tidy every day and the final finish was more than we expected. First class workers.

  • Connor and his team arrived on time every day and worked tirelessly to get the job done. They were well mannered, they did everything I asked and answered all of my questions. My roof looks great and I would highly recommend them to anyone thinking about using them. Thank you C&J.
