What does bricklaying include?

Bricklayers employ a range of skills needed to build and repair brick walls and structures. Here are some of the jobs you can ask your bricklayer to help with and what you can expect from each:

Brick walls for homes

One of the most common jobs your bricklayer can help with is building or repairing the brick walls inside and outside of your home. They’ll help you select the right brick to match your home, before laying each brick individually using a guide to ensure a strong, attractive finish. Your bricklayer will use a trowel to spread mortar on the bottom and sides of each brick, and will knock on the brick to remove any air bubbles from the mortar. Then they’ll remove the excess mortar with the trowel. 

Paving

Paving is a popular option for driveways, patios, and footpaths because pavers are affordable and easy to maintain (if one breaks, you can easily replace it). Your brick paver will start by preparing the surface. They may need to excavate the area slightly and lay down a level base material like crushed rocks, followed by a mixture of sand and cement. Then they’ll lay your pavers down in the pattern you’ve chosen, before sweeping a mixture of sand and cement into the cracks, then setting them with a hose.

Block retaining walls and fences

Your bricklayer can create brick fences, retaining walls, and even garden edgings for raised garden beds. They’ll use a similar process to building standard brick walls, but they’ll need to choose bricks that can stand up to harsher, more exposed conditions. Once they’ve laid bricks to the correct height, your bricklayer may finish off with a different brick or technique to cap the structure and add interest.

Small bricklaying jobs

Your bricklayer or bricky can also help with other smaller jobs like building custom mailboxes using bricks that match your home. Your mailbox installation will involve laying the bricks using mortar between each layer. Your bricklayer will incorporate a “box” section to collect mail and add your house number. Other small bricklaying jobs include brick fireplace installations and repairs, and even rendering.

Hi I need a bricklayer to complete some repairs/ re-building Job 1 is to replace the brickwork above garage starting from bottom of soldier course and working up. as photos provided I want to use old bricks which can be removed by me if you are worried about removal .

I do have some movement on another corner of the house that may need some attention I think a tree is cracking the brick course.

Re-brick a damaged wall - about 20 bricks to be re-laid

$500

Ultimo NSW 2007, Australia

30th Jun 2026

See photos. Bricklayer skills needed. Part of a brick wall has been damaged and needs to be repaired by removing any loose bricks and re-laying / pointing these and any missing bricks. We estimate around 20 bricks need to be relaid and pointed. We will re-paint once completed to match existing wall colour. The site is in a small rear courtyard of a tenanted property so we would need to coordinate access and the site would need to be left tidy with all rubbish removed. Price to include supplying like-for-like bricks.

Great communication, professional tradie, great work, nice guy
