Blocklaying Bricklayers Across the Sunshine Coast

Sunshine Coast Bricklayers takes on blocklaying for builders and homeowners right across the Sunshine Coast, on residential jobs and smaller commercial ones.

Whether it’s boundary walls on a new build, blockwork for a unit renovation, or a wall that has to go up between two other trades without holding either of them up, what a builder needs from a blocklayer is three things. Turn up when the program says, work off the drawings rather than a phone call, and leave the wall ready for whoever comes next.

Blocks come from leading Australian manufacturers, and walls are finished ready for render, paint or the following trade.

Blocklaying We Carry Out

Boundary and Dividing Walls

Block walls between properties, around courtyards and dividing outdoor spaces, built to the plans and set out to the boundary line.

Structural Blockwork

Core-filled walls carrying load, laid to the steel and spacing the engineering calls for rather than to a standard that suits every job.

Fences on New Builds

Front and boundary fences as part of a new build, in solid, pierced or segmented block, timed to go in once the site allows it.

Retaining Walls

Block retaining walls on residential and smaller commercial sites, with the drainage and core filling that decide how long they last.

Smaller Commercial Work

Blockwork on smaller commercial jobs rather than large-scale projects, where the work suits a team that gets in, does it properly, and gets out.

Render and Paint

The finish handled in-house where it is wanted, so the blockwork and the coating over it come from one team rather than two bookings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Blocklaying on the Sunshine Coast is priced per job. Factors affecting the cost include the wall area, the core filling required, the number and size of openings, the staging around other trades, and the site access. A straight run of boundary wall and a core-filled structural wall with openings are not the same job.

No, blockwork quotes are free right across the Sunshine Coast. Send the drawings or the site address, and the written quote that comes back is priced against the scope rather than off a general rate.

Yes, we work directly with builders across the Sunshine Coast. Blockwork gets set out from your drawings, staged into your program, and finished so the trade behind us is not left waiting.

Yes, we take on smaller commercial jobs rather than large-scale projects. That suits a team where the same people who quote the work are the ones laying it, which is the part that gets lost on a big site.

Yes, blocks are supplied as part of the job, sourced from leading Australian manufacturers. Factors determining which block suits include whether the wall is structural, retaining or a fence, and whether it is being rendered afterwards.

Yes, render and paint are done in-house where they are wanted. That means one trade takes the wall from footing to finished face, which removes a handover from your program.

To quote a job we need the drawings, the site address and any dates the program is working to. On a smaller job a site visit and a conversation covers it.
