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.

Extend Existing Block Wall to Full Height (Supply & Install)

$800

Ascot QLD 4007, Australia

15th Jul 2026

I'm looking for an experienced bricklayer/block layer to complete a full supply and install of an extension to my existing block wall. The existing wall is currently rendered masonry with a steel fence on top. I want the fence removed and replaced by additional blockwork so the wall becomes a full-height masonry wall. Scope of Works - Remove and dispose of the existing steel fence and posts. - Supply all materials required. - Extend the existing block wall from 1.04m high to 1.80m high. - Tie the new blockwork into the existing wall with appropriate reinforcement. - Leave the wall straight and ready for rendering Wall Dimensions - Length: 2.78 metres - Existing height: 1.04 metres - New overall height: 1.80 metres - Additional height required: 760mm - Wall thickness: 200mm concrete block Quote should include - All materials - Labour - Reinforcement and core filling (if required) - Removal and disposal of the existing fence Note: The existing block wall is already core-filled and is not retaining soil, so the new blockwork should be securely tied into the existing wall using appropriate reinforcement and left ready for rendering.

Great to work with! Would recommend and use James again!

I need a bricklayer to build a small wall, 80 bricks in total.

$500

Paddington QLD, Australia

28th Apr 2026

I’m looking for someone experienced to build up the brick wall shown on the right-hand side of the photo, so it finishes level with the brick wall shown on the left-hand side. I’ve counted roughly 80 bricks needed in total. Ideally, I’d like someone who can supply the bricks as well. They don’t need to match perfectly, and old or second-hand bricks would probably be preferred, as I’ll be building a retaining wall in front of it and putting a small deck over the top. The wall needs to be solid and properly built, so I’m looking for someone with bricklaying or similar experience who can advise whether it needs reinforcement or whether standard brickwork will be fine. Timing-wise, I’d ideally like it done by this Friday afternoon, but if that’s too soon, the week after next could also work.
