Blocklaying and masonry: what the job involves

Walls, piers, openings and repairs in concrete block, brick or stone: boundary and garden walls, pillars for gates, building up openings, and repairing cracked or damaged masonry. Done by a blocklayer or bricklayer; render and capping finish most walls in Ireland.

How long it takes: A few days for a garden wall; long walls, stone facing, demolition of an old wall or a wet spell for render make it longer.
