Residential developments require consistent masonry across multiple plots, elevations and construction phases, while keeping each release aligned with drawings, specifications and programme requirements.

ITM Brickwork provides brickwork and blockwork for developer-led housing schemes and new-build residential projects throughout Greater London and neighbouring areas.

From initial plot releases and cavity construction to external elevations, openings and final remedial work, our brickwork is coordinated with the wider build and the trades working around it.

Why choose ITM Brickwork for Residential Developments & New Builds?

Residential developments place different demands on a brickwork contractor than individual building projects. Repeated plot types, changing elevations and phased releases require consistent setting-out and workmanship while maintaining progress from one part of the development to the next.

ITM Brickwork works within the wider site programme, coordinating masonry activities with foundations, structural elements, floors, roofing and other trades. This makes our role not simply to complete brickwork, but to help keep each plot or phase ready for the construction stages that follow.

When to Involve ITM Brickwork in Your Residential Development

Brickwork planning is most effective when it is aligned with plot releases, construction milestones and the details required for each stage of the build.

ITM Brickwork is usually required when:

  • Once drawings confirm plot types and elevations
    When construction drawings, setting-out information and elevation schedules are ready for the masonry works.

  • When foundations are complete and plots are released
    As individual plots or sections of the development become ready for brickwork and blockwork to begin.

  • During phased construction across multiple plots
    When the programme requires consistent masonry output as work progresses from one plot or phase to another.

  • Before roofing and wall-plate milestones
    When masonry needs to reach the required levels so roof structures and subsequent trades can proceed.

  • When key masonry details need to be formed
    Including openings, movement joints, restraints, cavity details, DPCs and junctions identified within the project specification.

  • During final masonry inspections and snagging
    When completed plots require remedial brickwork, pointing or finishing work before handover.
