From house extensions and garage conversions to new build houses and commercial projects, you can rest assured your project is in safe hands.

Here is a list of popular types of brick bonding that you should know:

Stretcher bond - This is the simplest repeating pattern. But the limitation of stretcher bond is that it cannot make effective bonding with adjacent bricks in full width thick brick walls.

Header bond - Also known as heading bond. In header bonds, all bricks in each course are placed as headers on the faces of the walls.

English bond - In brick masonry has one course of stretcher only and a course of header above it, i.e. it has two alternating courses of stretchers and headers.

Flemish bond - The thickness of Flemish bond is minimum one full brick. The disadvantage of using Flemish bond is that construction of Flemish bond is difficult and requires greater skill to lay it properly as all vertical mortar joints need to be aligned vertically for best effects.
