Brickwork by AB Conservatories Ltd
See some examples of brickwork done by AB Conservatories Ltd - trading as AB Conservatories - based in Tadley, Hampshire is owned by Andy Brown (not to be confused with any similar sounding companies).
The majority of the brickwork was done by GPR Building services and was done to a very good standard. However, quite a bit of brickwork was done by AB Conservatories Ltd. I will let the reader decide for themselves on the quality. The first bit of workmanship can be seen at the top of the page...
AB Conservatories Ltd were asked to remove a single glazed timber framed unit from this wall and block up the hole. See the Design page.
The photo below was taken after AB Conservatories Ltd had "made good with facing brick to match existing"
The bricks do not line up, and the replacement bricks have not been cut in.
Also note the thickness of mortar underneath the bottom row of bricks....

Below is a close up of the brickwork shown above.
Note the exposed expanded foam, cracked mortar and lack of sealant against the PVC soffit boards.
I can't repeat here what the bricklayer who came to replace this said about the quality of the work. I'll let the reader imagine what was said...

The Solution - Use a Proper Bricklayer
This is the same wall but after all the bricks laid by AB Conservatories Ltd were removed and then replaced. You can see there are a large number of bricks that had to be replaced to make the wall sound..
