Whereas brickwork also contributes to strength in construction, it is often used for its aesthetic value. Blockwork, on the other hand, is a technique where our personnel use larger cement or concrete blocks, some of which have hollow centres which make them lighter and therefore much easier to work with.
Blockwork has exceptional insulating and soundproofing properties.
Having been used in construction for close to 100 years, blocks were primarily laid to create inner cavity walls. Today, our blockwork specialists use them to build load-bearing walls, retaining walls, partitions and even foundations.
Choosing Between Brickwork and Blockwork
Eco Brickwork Ltd uses blocks to construct walls which are safer, more secure and fully supported, whereas our brickwork specialists add to that support by using bricks in a choice of bonds to create patterns which enhance the final aesthetic. Choosing between each of these services will usually come down to location, conditions, budget, the project type and the required outcome.
It is still commonplace to combine blockwork with brickwork, especially in the construction of cavity walls for new builds and property extensions.
The benefits of blockwork include:
- Available in ultra-lightweight and denser formats to aid construction in much greater degrees of energy efficiency
- The production of solid blockwork systems in material choices that have better resistance to fire and flood risks
- Blocks have excellent mass and damping characteristics for optimised acoustic performance and thermal warmth
- Mainly manufactured in the UK, blockwork isn’t impacted by currency fluctuations and needs minimal maintenance
Importantly, cement and concrete blocks improve the walling systems of the commissioned build, keeping the foundations solid and the pillars sturdy. It is, of course, especially important to only use a team of experienced blockwork specialists and Eco Brickwork Ltd brings 50+ years of expertise to the job.
The construction sector is usually more competitive in London and the Home Counties. It isn’t unusual for us to see start-ups offering the same services, but we strongly advise that you only consider contractors with proven local and regional track records for delivering blockwork services of superior standards.
We principally support domestic and commercial building projects.
Eco Brickwork Ltd understands that for a blockwork construction project to be considered a success, the build must withstand the impact of time and the effect of the UK’s inclement weather conditions. We use our abilities and our knowledge to achieve the best possible outcome for the client, and to bring their architectural visions to life in the most professional manner possible.
Our reputation in Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Surrey, West Sussex, London and the surrounding Home Counties is one that is trusted by private customers and by clients working in the same sector, and this explains why our blockwork specialists are always in such high demand.
