The occupation of a Bricklayer involves working in both new build and refurbishment sectors within the construction industry. Bricklayers are responsible for constructing walls by laying bricks and blocks, often using modern construction methods and premanufactured elements. They prepare mortar, apply damp-proof materials, and ensure proper alignment of structures using tools like trowels, spirit levels, and plumb lines. Bricklayers can work on a variety of projects, from small repairs like garden walls to large-scale commercial developments, including office buildings, hospitals, and residential housing. Their work requires a deep understanding of building design and construction methods, as well as the ability to adhere to safety and environmental standards. Bricklayers typically work outdoors on construction sites, sometimes at heights, and may choose to specialize in areas like refurbishment, new homes, or commercial work. Their role plays a key part in meeting the growing demand for new homes and infrastructure.
